Slap Darkness In The Face. Extreme conditions call for extreme measures. The rechargeable SureFire Maximus handles them by delivering an amazing 1,000 lumens of MaxVision Beam®-shaped light that can be dialed down, lumen by lumen, to give you just the amount you need. Keep it on lower settings for closer work, preserving your dark-adapted vision and extending the runtime. Turn up the power to light any environment. Its large, knurled dial permits output control with one hand — even when gloved or numbed by cold. You can also rotate the light assembly up or down to aim the beam right where you want it. An SOS beacon provides an extra margin of safety for those who thrive on danger.

Product Reviews
Great headlamp
I can’t say much more than other reviewers have but if you are looking for a bright, adjustable light this is it. The fact it is rechargeable just makes it better. This set up is well made and looks like it should last a lifetime with proper care.
Surfire Maximus
On the day you’re born, you should purchase a Maximus headlamp and never buy another flashlight. The market is flooded by Chinese products, which are designed to fail prematurely; the Maximus is designed to perform and last…
Good start... but needs improvement
The brightness and variable output is extremely good and easy to use. The form factor could be better. Very heavy – I added a strap across the top scavenged from another headlamp to stabilize, which helped a lot. I would prefer a lighter high strength plastic housing – like some of the Surefire (nylon or polypropylene) flashlights. The small protective cap over the charging port is too flimsy and easily knocked out. Finally, I would make the battery pack flatter and wider so it rests against the head or helmet rather than the current design that sticks out and easily hits things. Battery life is excellent though. Comes with car and AC chargers, which is good but expected for the high price.
