Big Red Gear’s new rechargeable LED camp lights are designed to offer greater convenience at the campsite, in the home, or for the car toolbox in case of emergency.

Included in this new range is an LED Mini Camp Light and an LED Head Torch, which both feature a high-powered COB LED that produces a crisp, bright white light. The Mini Camp Light offers four different modes depending on what you require – flood light full power; flood light normal; flood light eco; and spotlight – to make it an extremely versatile light.

Despite its compact size, the Mini Camp Light still delivers 700 lumens in full power mode and is capable of this output for 2.5 hours. Run time increases to 4.5 hours in normal mode and up to 10 hours in eco mode. When used in spotlight mode, the run time is four hours. Recharging time for Mini Camp Light is 4.5 hours via the included USB charging cable.

The adaptable Mini Camp Light also features a swivel bracket with 180 degrees of adjustability, as well as a magnet that allows it to be placed on the side of a vehicle or inside the engine bay. Another useful addition is the LED charge level indicator, so you can easily monitor the battery life.

If you need hands-free illumination – cooking by a campfire, taking a night hike or changing a tyre in the dark – the Big Red Gear LED Head Torch is a great choice with its three modes: normal output; full power output; and a convenient hands-free sensor mode. Full power mode provides 300 lumens of output for two hours; eco mode reduces output to 100 lumens but extends operating time to a substantial six hours; while sensor mode (where the torch is motion-activated such as when hands are dirty) provides two hours of light. Charging time for the Head Torch via the supplied USB cable is only 2.5 hours.

Senior Category Manager, Jake Smith, said the new LED camp lights provided convenience for a range of recreational pursuits and more.

“These new LED camp lights from Big Red Gear offer a quality lighting solution when the sun goes down at the campground," he said. "Owing to their compact size and generous light output, they’re also a worthy toolbox addition, or to have in the garage or home in the event of an emergency."

Both LED lights are designed to provide reliable operation in temperatures ranging from minus 10° C to 40° C and are fully sealed and rated to IP65 and IK07 for dust and water ingress protection, making them suitable for Australia’s harsh conditions.

Pricing

The new Big Red Gear LED Mini Camp Light and LED Head Torch are available for purchase directly from the Big Red Gear website for $59 and $49 respectively, with shipping included. Both lights are backed by a three-year warranty.
