LED head torch / headlamp

Description

The Coast FL85 Dual Colour Focusing Head Torch is a powerful, front-loaded LED headlamp delivering up to 615 lumens of output with Coast’s Pure Beam Focusing technology. A primary white LED provides an ultra-wide flood beam that can be quickly focused by twisting the bezel into a long-range spot beam with a transition halo, while a secondary fixed red LED helps preserve night vision. Powered by three AAA batteries, the FL85 offers a beam distance of up to 600 ft (183 m) and runtimes of approximately 2 hours 15 minutes on high and 13 hours on low. It is built with an IPX4 weatherproof rating, a reflective safety head strap, and a robust, impact-resistant housing. The virtually unbreakable LED and ANSI/FL1-tested performance are backed by Coast’s lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.

Usage

Install the 3 × AAA batteries according to the polarity markings in the battery compartment, ensuring secure closure of the housing.
Place the headlamp on the head or over a helmet and adjust the elastic strap for a secure but comfortable fit; ensure the reflective portions are oriented outward for visibility.
Use the primary (white light) button to turn the headlamp on and cycle through the available white modes (typically high and low).
Twist the front bezel of the light to switch between an ultra-wide flood beam and a focused spot beam with transition halo, adjusting to the required task.
Use the secondary button to activate the fixed red LED mode when night-vision preservation is desired; press again to switch off the red LED.
Avoid shining the beam directly into eyes at close range to prevent discomfort or temporary visual disturbance.
After use, switch the headlamp off to conserve battery power; if storing for prolonged periods, remove the batteries to reduce the risk of leakage.
Clean the housing and strap with a damp cloth if soiled and allow to dry completely before storage.
Do not attempt to disassemble the LED module or modify the headlamp; refer to Coast warranty guidelines for service or replacement.

Contraindications

Not certified as intrinsically safe; do not use in explosive atmospheres or where ATEX-rated equipment is required.
Avoid direct eye exposure at close range to prevent glare or temporary visual disturbance.
Users sensitive to bright light should use lower output settings or red mode where appropriate.
Do not use if the headlamp or battery compartment is visibly damaged, cracked or shows signs of battery leakage.

Adverse Effects

Temporary glare or visual discomfort if the beam is directed into the eyes at close range.
Potential skin irritation from the strap in users with sensitivities to elastic or synthetic materials.
Risk of battery leakage or overheating if incorrect batteries are used, installed incorrectly, or left for prolonged periods in extreme temperatures.

Storage Conditions

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Switch the headlamp off before storage and remove batteries if it will not be used for an extended period.
Avoid storing in damp or corrosive environments that may degrade the housing, contacts or strap.
Keep out of reach of young children when not in supervised use.
