Can this be attached to the side rail of a lightweight, modular tactical helmet?

It can be attached to the side of a ballistic helmet however if it's on a picatany rail you'll need to buy a separate attachment piece. The helmet attachment mount is not picatany compatible.

Yes! And it is included a holder just for that purpose! If you see the product picture, there is a small rounded holder. This gives the flashlight a really solid base, witch the flashlight can be adjusted how you want. And it has a notch in the "belt clip" of the flashlight, so it will not swivel around .

You can if you have the rail adapter or the helmet adapter. I love the light and it is very versatile. The helmet adapter clips to the edge of the helmet not like the rail adapter which will adapt to a weapons system style rail.

The answer to that is a bit odd. Yes....no...yes. I have the ops-core, and what I did was take the mounting plate that comes with the helmet and attach it to the ops-core arc rail adapter. However, it wasn't anything like a direct fit. I had to dremel the helmet mount that came with the Sidewinder to get the two pinch-tabs on the ops-core piece to clear and still let me take it off. However, the final solution was totally functional and looks great. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_7_E2kW85Mo/UyptYHQM4PI/AAAAAAAAED8/BjzTfinV6VU/s400/20140319_222218.jpg They also make a picatinny adapter that can be used with the ops-core pic rail piece. Works fine, and no mods. Just a little higher profile than my solution.

I doubt it since it fits the special face shield frame very specifically. If you're in the military, thanks for your service, and ask the logistics folks if they have a face shield to accommodate your helmet. In my day (VietNam) the steel pot had nothing like you've requested. Good luck.

I bought it for my chesty mount. I have not use it for helmet. But this item works for my purpose.

I have an Advanced Combat Helmet (ACH) with NVG mount. It is a tight fit. I had to trim the foam pad a bit. Works fine.

I've not tried that, but I would say most likely, yes. It might not be a perfect fit, but should hold one. The straps are long enough to open the helmet holder more than enough to cinch a helmet down.

I think you are saying this like you already try it. And you are right the adhesive mount is rigid and it won´t take the helmet shape. My suggestion use another mount, what about goggles, Do you use googles? try with that. That the only thing I can say. Bless

Yes that's right - it's attached to the side of the helmet with a Velcro / adhesive patch. I installed it in my wife's modular helmet and it's been quite secure. Was worried at first but it's done very well.

Yes, but it might fall off, as it is heavy. I'd use zip ties to hold it down. If you want a light that will go on and off a helmet without falling off, get one with a tighter elastic, like the backpacking lights you see at rei

You can if you use the helmet mount. You might have to be creative with the velcro alignment to get it snug.

Yes it can be mounted to a vest or other molle webbing, the shoulder straps that allow it to be worn alone are removable

No. These types of emitters have an elastic O-ring that is like a thick rubber band that goes around a tube and hooks on the light in two places. Depending on the helmet and vent pattern you might be able to accomplish the attachment, but it would be a stretch, literally. The best way that I have found is a standard helmet mount that is usually some velcro or buckled straps with a plastic tube on a flat base. I generally use this light on my handlebars and strap the battery to the stem. I use a lighter, less powerful light on my helmet.

You should be able to, assuming it has some way of attaching to the molle or even the d ring

It snaps on to a base that is held to the helmet with double sided tape. So as long as you have two of the bases, yes you can.

I do not see a single reason that this can not havemounting capabilities and usefulness on an airsoft item. As long as there is a weaver/picatinny rail mount system then this should be just fine

It would be pretty difficult. The design of this mount relies on the 3M sticker which is a near-permanent bond to the helmet. I would suggest purchasing a strap mount. They simply stretch behind and over the helmet with straps and secure the camera to the helmet without any permanent residue or attachment. Best of luck, and have fun!

Yes, just remove the 4 screws holding it onto the head mount, take the metal plate and mount it on the helmet, and then screw the bracket back together. That's what I did. Works great.

Yes it fits all full face & most modular helmets. Multiple ways to attach it.
