- New updates for mid 2022! We have made the aluminum housing slightly thicker, the plastic bracket stronger and the entire headlamp less wide. It has added a few grams and is no longer the worlds lightest 18650 lithium headlamp (Our Cat-Eye 2.0 now is) but it is still extremely light for what it does. 
 
The Raven Double is a high-power, wide flood beam style headlamp, it is excellent for outdoor activities especially when you need natural feeling vision and adequate light up close or for medium distances, situations such as rock climbing+mountaineering, backcountry camping, tree skiiing or boarding, mountain biking on technical trails, cross-country skiing, caving or as an industrial work light. The infinite brightness tuneability and memory function of the Raven makes it so you always have the amount of light you need to do what you need to do. 
 
Specifications
-1800 Lumens (on full charge)
-Battery Life: 3.5hrs (brightest setting) - 80hrs (low setting 50 lumens)
 
-True stepless dimming + memory function.
-120 grams (battery+strap+headlamp) a huge feat for an aluminum 18650 headlamp with this much power.
-Live battery level display underneath power button
-Waterproof/dustproof (this is the most waterproof model).
-USB-C rechargeable (includes cable), charging port is concealed and 100% safe under twist off aluminum sleeve sealed by o-rings.
-Extremely wide 120 degree beam angle with faded edges makes night time really feel like day. Because of this, it is great for industrial purposes or action sports.
 
-Special top of the line 3500mAh Sanyo battery optimal for Canadian winters. Made in Japan. These cells often test at above 3600mAh and have excellent longevity. Other rechargeable and lithium-ion headlamps usable battery life will fall by up to 95 percent in cold weather. Ours remains consistent. Tested in the Kootenay backcountry where temperatures range from 0 to -20 Celsius in winter.
 
This is truly the highest quality rechargeable headlamp on the market. It is ultra-light, weighing only 120 grams and long-lasting with a 3500mAh battery. It is slimmer, brighter and lighter than the already insane Airy Double. Couple this with better user interface and smoother functioning controls, with the same durable aluminum construction and waterproof design, you get the Raven Double Headlamp. Imagine what you can do with 1800 lumens, 3.5 hour battery life on high mode and a headlamp so light and slim it feels as if its almost not there! This is our choice for backcountry snowsports, especially if touring or hiking in the woods.
 
1 button operation: 1st click on is memory setting, 2nd click is full brightness. 3rd click is off. Hold down while on is stepless dimming whichs automatically sets the first memory setting (50-1800 lumens). Double click is strobe mode. Can operate 1 handed in gloves.
 
-Includes everything needed (Headlamp, head-strap, lithium battery, charge cable, instructions)  
 
Differences Between Raven Double and New Otus Headlamps
 
-We are getting a lot of questions inquiring about differences between the new Otus and our popular Raven Double. 
 
Beam pattern
The Otus can see further into the distance compared to the Raven while using less lumens, because more light energy from the flood beam is concentrated in the center. The Raven light is more spread throughout the total area of the beam.
 
LEDs and Lumens
The LEDs are also different on the Otus, they are slightly more white than the warmer coloured Raven LEDs and pierce the darkness further.
 
In Summary
Ski-touring/snowboarding or hiking primarily in the trees? The Raven Double has the edge. Mountain biking in the spring and fall, using in the alpine, open trails, or just like to see a little further? The Otus is your light.
Both the Raven and Otus will be equally good and more than adequate for general use or industrial purposes.
