HEL-STAR 6® is a purpose-built helmet mounted LED light designed for airborne/MFF, tactical and other military operations.
HEL-STAR 6® combines the basic features of the earlier HEL-STAR 4® & HEL-STAR 5®
multi-function marker lights into a compact, integrated design with
enhanced omni-directional visibility, easy battery replacement, and
waterproofness to 130' sea water.
Improved sliding switches enhance tactile feel and provide positive,
intuitive control between the two operating modes and four user-defined
functions. Functions can be selected from virtually any combination of
White, four different color options, and IR – either flashing or steady.
Variable flash rates, intensities and coded signals provide expanded
IFF capability.
Independent testing has confirmed that the HEL-STAR 6® exceeds the FAA’s 3 statute mile visibility requirement. HEL-STAR 6®
is built on a platform that allows new technology to be incorporated as
it becomes available. As mission demands shift and expand, HEL-STAR 6® can evolve with changing user needs.
The HEL-STAR 6 is very user-friendly; even in the blind. It is a
true full-spectrum signal light whose modes can be quickly switched in
the field to accommodate various mission requirements. The nose of the
HEL-STAR 6 contains the mode switch, allowing the user to change between
"A” and "B” functions. The function/power control switch is located at
the tail of the unit and moves perpendicular to the mode switch. This
provides the user a clear indicator as to what switch they are
activating without having to look.
There are two series of HEL-STAR 6: 620 and 640. The 620 features a
lock clip in the nose that requires a tool for removal. When the arrow
on the clip is facing the nose, the HEL-STAR 620 will be locked into
two functions. The clip must be pried up, flipped and replaced to
switch to the other two functions. This provides extra security for the
user so that he/she can choose either Overt Visible or Infrared
functions only, eliminating the possibility of accidentally flashing a
visible strobe in the field.
The HEL-STAR 640 Series provides a simple detented switch at the nose for changing modes on the fly.
