SPERAS B7 HEADLAMP
SPERAS B7 was sent to me directly by SPERAS for review.
For the description and purchase of the product: https://sperasflashlight.com/products/s … -600lm-92m
SPERAS, a high-tech company that produces premium portable lighting equipment, has recently released a compact Dual-Fuel headlamp that provides good illumination and autonomy at an affordable price.
SPERAS B7 is a lightweight and powerful headlamp. It has White/Red dual output, 5 brightness levels and 3 special modes.
The primary LED, the depth LED, is a CREE XP-G3 S6 capable of delivering up to 600 lumens. It has 2 auxiliary LEDs, one with floody white light and one with red light. It is also equipped with 2 switches for easy operation. SPERAS B7 is ideal for applications such as night running, hiking, camping, night fishing, night hunting, emergency repairs, etc.
Main Features:
Thecnical Data
The above data was measured in accordance with the international flashlight test standards ANSI/NEMA FL1 using a SPERAS 3AAA battery or 1rechargeable lithium-polymer battery (USB-C) under laboratory conditions.
The Package:
SPERAS B7 is sold in a yellow/white cardboard package.
Printed in the small box are the main features that distinguish it.
Inside the package we find: SPERAS B7 front with elastic band, 3 AAA batteries and the English/Chinese Manual. In my package there were also the two optional accessories which are the USB-C charging cable and the rechargeable battery with 1250mAh lithium ion.
The Manual:

SPERAS B7 is made of tough and impact-resistant plastic material.
It is not heavy and can be worn without any difficulty through its well-adjustable elastic band. It has compact dimensions and is equipped with two buttons to manage the 3 LEDs it is equipped with.
The elastic band, included in the package, is of good quality and allows for a good portability. SPERAS B7 is securely wearable with easy adjustment.
Types of Lighting:
SPERAS B7 has a complete illumination being equipped with a Depth LED (Spotlight), a CREE XP-G3 S6, a Floodlight LED and a Red light LED ideal for the night; it can protect the eyesight of users in a dark environment and is a perfect companion for night activities.
The Spotlight and Floodlight light can be activated together at the same time reaching a maximum brightness of 600 lumens.
SPERAS B7 allows a tilt angle of 30°.
On the bottom side is the red light LED which has three types of lighting; Constant Red, Strobe and SOS.
SPERAS B7 can be powered by 3 AAA batteries (1.5V) or by the proprietary LC12 battery (1250mAh) sold as an accessory. The LC12 battery has a USB-C charging port on the top. During charging, an LED indicator, near the charging port, informs us of the battery status.
To fully charge the LC12 battery, in my tests, it took me about 2 hours.
Inserting the batteries is simple; at the top of the front panel, simply lift the interlocking lever and pull to access the battery compartment. The direction for inserting the batteries is made easier by clearly legible writing.
Operation and User Interface:
The user interface of the SPERAS B7 is simple and well managed by 2 switches located on the top.
The POWER button, on the right of the front, controls the white light, the button on the left controls the red light.
White Light Illumination
When the light is off, press the POWER button to activate the white LED light.
When the light is off, press the button (on the left) to turn on the auxiliary red light. Press the button repeatedly at intervals of less than 3 seconds to cycle through the modes; Solid Red Light – Flashing Red Light (Strobe) and Flashing Red Light (SOS). Pressing the button after no buttons have been pressed for at least 3 seconds will turn off the auxiliary red light.
Recharge
SPERAS B7 has, as an optional accessory, a 1250 mAh lithium-ion battery. This battery can be recharged via the USB-C socket located above the battery itself. When charging, the LED on the battery will be red, while it will turn green when fully charged.
Beam and Runtime:
The beam of the SPERAS B7 has a not too cold tone that tends to yellow/green in the central part (crown) with a discrete throw especially in the highest combined level of 600 lumens that reaches the value declared in the table. The light covers the walk completely. Only discrete is the auxiliary red LED useful especially in its flashing function.
The value of the CCT color temperature and the Ra color rendering of the SPERAS B7, measured with the OPPLE Light Master, taken in the brightest level, as it also appears to the eye, is a not too cold white with a discrete Duv tending slightly to yellow/green.
To the eye no PWM.
Runtime:
The runtime test was performed in Combined High mode (600 lm) indoors and without ventilation with 3 AAA batteries (1.5V) and with the 1250 mAh Li-ion battery, fully charged. In both tests the autonomy is good but does not reach, in my tests, the values in the table.
The first 10 minutes:

SPERAS B7 Unboxing and Use
CONCLUSIONS:
SPERAS B7 is a small and fairly powerful headlamp, which fits well on the head and does not tire, suitable for many uses including map reading, rock climbing, walking, camping, etc.
SPERAS B7 has a complete LED set considering that in addition to the main LED it also has two auxiliary LEDs, one white of alluvial nature and one of red color with the possibility of fixed or flashing light. The standard set is however basic including only the primary batteries and the user manual. Good autonomy and ergonomics; SPERAS B7 is equipped with two buttons to easily manage the user interface.
In conclusion SPERAS B7 is recommended as a backup headlamp or for small trips as well as for everyday use also considering the excellent selling price.
Thank you for reading the review.
