Ergodyne Skullerz® 8965 Lightweight Bump Cap Hat w/ LED Lighting, Navy, Long Brim

The Ergodyne LED bump cap is a great addition to my service truck, and my daily donning of PPE. Safety equipment and personal protection is something I take very seriously. If I get hurt and cant work, I don't get paid. Just under the brim of the bump cap is an easy to push button that activates two LEDs that illuminate for hands free lighting. The light projection is great for my line of work in tight areas on heavy equipment while I service and wrench on machines. I also still carry a flashlight, however I do prefer the bump cap over a baseball cap or a head light. Neither the flashlight, baseball cap, or head lamp provide rated head protection. The Ergodyne bump cap does. The bump cap has also served as a head rest in those peculiar spots where I have to rest my head, or lay flat on my back, and still wrench or twist and pull on equipment and or parts. This allows my body to relax more where I need it to, which helps prevent muscle fatigue during longer jobs. As far a the actual "bump" feature, the name holds true. This cap has already saved my head from a few sore spots, if I lose focus or awareness getting in and out, or under equipment, or from just "getting in a hurry." This cap will also keep the grease, oil, dirt and mud out of your hair. The cap is breathable and I plan on getting a cold weather version too. Overall, I enjoy PPE and would recommend the Ergodyne Bump Cap with LEDs. I had never known, or tried any cap like this before and if I'm going to get down and dirty with it, this cap goes on before I go in. Great job Ergodyne!!!

This bump cap has saved my head on multiple low hanging areas. It is light weight and I also wear it on a normal basis. It has a nice bright led headlamp. It takes 4 button batteries which is nice for size but expensive to replace. Would like to see a rechargeable option if it was available. It will get hot in weather or locations that are hot. That is a definite. I would recommend this hat to others who work in low hang or compact areas to protect your cranium from the inevitable head lifts into I-beams or what have you. Thanks for a nice product! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
