HEL-STAR 5® is an expanded three function, low profile LED
marker light designed specifically for snag free mounting on helmets.
Used extensively throughout military freefall for HAHO/HALO; the
HEL-STAR 5® has also proven valuable for other airborne and
ground operations. Its conformal design allows for alternative marking
applications on aerial delivery, vehicles, outerwear and equipment.
Velcro® interfaces make for quick installation without tools
or hardware, reducing snag hazards, while providing easy detachment by
users.
Detented sliding switches offer positive visual and tactile confirmation of ON/OFF status and operating mode. HEL-STAR 5®
is available with any combination of RGB, White or IR LED’s– flashing
or steady. It’s IFF capabilities are enhanced by flexible programming,
featuring unique, user-defined flash rates or codes. Field replaceable
lithium CR123 cells ensure long life and excellent cold temperature
operation. HEL-STAR 5®
eliminates the need for multiple items on the helmet by combining the
capabilities of a strobe and chem-light into one fully functional
device. HEL-STAR 5® was designed for easy operation with gloved hands in the blind.
The HEL-STAR 5 from CORE Survival is a unique signal device that
allows for a multitude of mounting options airborne, seaborne, and
ground operations. It is extremely durable and user friendly. Able to
be mounted on top-of and behind helmets, the mode switching is easily
accomplished without looking. Detents are positive and stiff, requiring
a deliberate action to switch modes. This is also important in making
sure that the unit is not accidentally activated. The HEL-STAR 4 is a
great signal light for users who need a simple device without a lot of
fuss. Please check the chart graphic to determine which model fits your
needs.
