Customer Reviews
This is a home run!! It’s bigger but easier to hold and slide into the pocket than the pl47g2. Magnets hold good, especially the bottom, huge hot spot with spill, rbg power button, superb build quality, beautiful 5000k tint with hint of rosy, good sustained lumen output, compared to pl47g2 with less heat. I’m so glad I bought this. Get the headband, it makes the light easy detachable because it clips in. My only complaint is it doesn’t have a captured pocket clip, but this clip-on style rotates easy. This is all initial impressions but so far I’m very impressed. The middle light is 3700k both outside are 5000k in pic. I think this is gonna be great work light.
Delivered as expected with all the accessories I ordered. Excellent build and quality. The anodization doesn't easily scratch. The emitter I ordered (FFL707A 5000K) has a slight pink tint but otherwise remains neutral which is what I want for a work light. The Helios is only slightly larger and heavier than an Emisar DW4 but greatly benefits from increased battery life with the 21700 cell and Lume X1 driver. The headband is worth the extra cost as it fits my other 18650 headlamps as well.
Very robust, I really like the rgb switch on this headlamp and the newer headband with the plastic slots it slides into fits my other right angle lights perfectly! I got the ffl707a 5000k such a sweet emitter, looks pure white with a hint of rosiness, I like rosy tints, this was perfect for me, I also have the Fireflylite Stellar with ffl351a 4000k rosy a little warmer and very pleasant as well, I chose the desert tan so happy I did, looks beautiful the switch and machining is unbelievable, it has a nice smooth but grippy feel to it, my only gripe is, I was hoping it had a usb c magnetic charging port like the other newer models they have, that would've been so awesome, thats why I gave 4 stars, but that's my preference, this headlamp is another masterpiece! Thanks, I'm very happy I got one!

Description
Introducing the new L70 Helios.
From outdoor adventures to everyday work, the L70 Helios right-angle flashlight is your workhorse companion. We paired efficient optics with the unparalleled Lume X1 boost driver for long runtimes. Magnets at the tail, side, and a headlamp attachment allow for flexible use. We built this flashlight for you to get things done.
Note (Oct 2024) - Please note that for the current batch of Navy Blue, there are some slight color differences in the tail cap due to anodization tolerances. Please refer to the video above.

Operation Notes
- L70 Helios is a high-performance flashlight capable of up to 40W and generates a lot of heat. Please understand that this is not a toy and should be handled with safety.
- L70 uses the high-performance Lume X1 driver. For best performance, use high-drain unprotected flat-top 21700 Lithium-ion cells only. Recommend cells include Molicel P42, P45, P50, or Samsung 40T, 50S, or Vapcell T50.
- Batteries and external charger are not included.
- To prevent accidental activation of the flashlight, it is recommended to lock-out the flashlight (4 clicks from off to lock or unlock) before storage or unscrew the body a quarter turn as a mechanical lock-out.
- This flashlight has low-voltage protection which cuts off power at 2.8V. It is recommended to begin recharging the cell before this happens to increase battery longevity.
- The Lume X1 driver (Rev B with AVR32DD20 MCU) features UPDI flashing pads for advanced users to perform their own firmware updates or to flash custom firmware binaries.
