Features +-

Multiple Light Options

The 5 LEDs on the Bilby Run are optimally placed for their individual purposes – a high beam to see by, 2 elliptical beams for mid and wide beam angles, a red light for night light purposes and downlights for reading. Within each mode there are four brightness settings. On the brightest setting, the Bilby Run has a range of up to 100m. Another unique feature of the Bilby Run is that the beam angel can be manually adjusted via an electronic tilt function, allowing the user to set to the perfect beam function for their use.

Integrated USB Rechargeable

The Bilby Run also features an integrated USB connector as part of the lighting pod – which means no cables to lose or break. To recharge the headlamp, simply plug the pod into a USB-A port, and you’ll have a full charge in just 4 hours from flat.

Matte Silicone Strap

The Bilby Run’s body and strap are moulded in transparent matte finish medical grade silicone that won’t tangle your hair. It’s easy to clean and is adjustable to fit head circumferences from 30 - 66 cm. The extremely comfortable silicone strap adjusts with a toggle. Once you’ve found your size you can set and forget or adjust on the fly.

Red Light Halo Effect

A unique feature of Knog’s running headlamps is the Red-light – Halo-Effect. As a result of its construction from transparent silicone, when the headlamp is in operation a red halo light effect can be selected which helps increase the user’s visibility to other road users. This feature has been specifically designed to keep runner’s highly visible to other road users and works independently of the main headlamp beam.

Customers praised this headlamp for exceptional brightness, comfort, and versatility with multiple lighting modes including a red halo for visibility. "Turns the night to daylight" said one reviewer. While most loved the stable fit during running, some noted the band can feel tight. A few mentioned complicated controls and auto-dimming, though customization software resolves this.

  • So comfortable and the light shines where you need it without having to adjust it.
  • The most compact, comfortable and brightest headlamp that I've come across.
  • Having a big variety between the modes makes this an easily adaptable head torch.

Perfect.

I am very happy with this. Have had problems in the past with other lights bouncing or being too tight, but this stays right where I want it and doesn't need to be too tight. Also very bright!!

Bright idea

No more falling into storm drains and piles of cow dung. The Bilby illuminates my path like the light of 2000 suns.

Best running/ Hiking/ Camping torch

I’ve used this for over a year now for everything from pitch black runs to hiking or camping. Having a big variety between the modes makes this an easily adaptable head torch that’s comfortable and durable. I brought this one for a Christmas present so mine would stop being stolen!

Could be better

I love how cool and cute this lamp is, but it could definitely be better.
I took it out for its first night run, and as much as I wanted to love it, a few things didn’t work for me.

I was wearing a hat and, like most lights, the brim created a shadow and pushed the beam above my eye line. Most lights let you angle the beam, but this one stays fixed, so there was no way to adjust it. Throughout the run, it also felt like it kept dimming on its own,I had to keep pressing the button to bring the brightness back up.

It was super humid, so I eventually took my hat off, but the band material wasn’t grippy enough to stay put on my forehead. It kept sliding down, which was uncomfortable and required constant readjustment.

I love the color and the lightweight feel, but this lamp is probably better for casual use than for serious training or racing.

Bright light and comfortable.

I have an earlier model that I have had for a few years. Just not quite enough light for racing flat out through the bush. The Bilby Run is perfect. So comfortable and the light shines where you need it without having to adjust it. Just running around poorly lit walking paths you can have it light dimmed and still have plenty of visibility. Tried others but this one beats them hands down.

Really comfortable to run with and the light is so great

Best running torch

This head torch is fantastic. I was using a light weight camping head torch for running but it would bounce all over when running and was very uncomfortable. The Billy run is very stable and has so many modes! Really like the halo feature. Couldn’t recommend this more! Only dislike is I wish I had gotten one sooner.

Good for running

Really love the headlight, the elastic band makes it great for running while maintaining a tight fit, just feel like it fits too tight and gets kinda uncomfortable after wearing for a long time if you don’t want it to move

Dream Headlamp for All Kinds of Running 7 Hiking!

I picked this up for giggles, as I already have quite a few headlamps, flashers. and a running strap/sash with a lamp at chest level. The red flashing side lights were what interested me, but the first time I wore was the last time I used any of that other stuff.

The biggest surprise was how well the silicon strap held the big lamp stable against my bare forehead, hair, headband or hat, without feeling squeezed or ending up with red marks. And with the lamp not bouncing *at all*, I don't even notice the weight or bulkiness.

The flashing red lights are great for running on my neighborhood streets, which have no sidewalks or streetlamps. And the front lamp has a combination of spread and brightness settings that lets me trail run before dawn with no tripping- well, no MORE tripping over roots than I would do in full daylight.

Looks great, functions great

I often go for runs at night and I needed a way to be visible, particularly to cyclists. The red halo is perfect for visibility and the different headlamp levels mean I can go running down trails at night too.

Best thing since vegimite.

Very happy with the head light, easy to use, and has more uses than I first thought .
Makes for a great work light, reading light, and generally night vision requirements.

Make sure USB is tight for recharging ports

Have had this item for close to two years (bought from outdoor hiking store 400km from my home) used a dozen or so times but have had compounding issues with recharging, the USB connector not being tight in any type of port. literally slips out of some.
Due to not having receipts, website states nothing can be done…so…if buying from a stockist in store make sure you plug into a port to check that the fit is tight, otherwise its another $100+ down the tube and a massive disappointment.
Overall i loved the product but as per norm tech not living up to hyped standards.

Fantastic headtorch and first rate customer servicee!

This headtorch is brilliant -absolutely fantastic. And the customer service is top rate too - I contacted them to say that I had lost the little plastic toggle off the strap and they said they would send two out to me straight away, free of charge. Thank you Knog!!

Amazing fit!

I'm still trying to familiarize myself with the light settings but overall a great headlamp that adheres more to my head with limited movement. Not only do I use this for my night walks but great to work on my mountain bike in the garage at night or my car. The only thing I would update is the charging. Having to put the light fixture into a USB block seems outdated vs USB-C/micro USB and more prone to snapping. But overall highly recommended.

Bilby Run 400 Headlamp

We gave our son, who is an avid runner, the Bilby Run 400 headlamp as a Christmas present. He thinks it is fantastic. I gives him real good vision on his his early morning runs and makes very obvious to oncoming traffic.

Cool is the word

This is a product that really stands out. The whole concept is so much different from other headlamps on the market. The most intriguing feature is charging - no need for cables, just any USB port will do. Let's see how it holds up in the real world conditions.

Carolyn Tippett
Even better than the original bilby

I bought the run bilby for camping because the side illumination allows toy to be seen as well as see. Very bright and easy to recharge and use.

Perfect for No Light Runs

When my Bandicoot Headlamp broke, I initially switched to another brand (because I had it). I immediately realized that the bulkiness of other headlamps slipped down and made the light "bounce". Now with the Bilby, I was concerned with how large it was, but found that it attaches securely without issues. The beams are INCREDIBLY bright and have so many options, I would argue there are almost too many options.

While I'm primarily using this for night runs, I can't wait to use it for other situations.

Great light complicated controls

The light does the basics of what i want but auto dims over use time requiring you to presd buttons to get brightness back and i am not even sure i am getting it onto the best setting i want anyway. Probably should watch some YouTube videos on maximising its potential. The instructions with it are really not great

Best running light

My wife and I use the running headlamp for our morning runs. The biliby run headlamp is perfect fit for running, with or without a hat. Kong is awesome!

The best running light I‘ve found! Almost perfect :)

This is a really comfortable head band and the light is pretty bright. There is an ambient red light that can be useful if you need to be visible to cars and others from afar. The buttons are easy to click and the light charges on a USB connector quickly, which is great if you are like me and just decide to go for a jog after dark - and need a light.

My only wish is that the series of lights that go on and off were easier to segregate with the 2 buttons. Unless I take the headband off, sometimes I have no idea what combo of lights I have switched on. That is annoying, but not a terrible issue.

Again, the head strap is comfortable and the light works great - and this is the best solution I have found so far!

Great Headlamp!

Comfortable to wear. Great light when your hands can't hold a light (like on a ladder. Low light is perfect for fishing season to not draw the bugs in.

Perfecto

Great lighting with plenty of options for different situations. Doesn’t budge whilst running and very comfortable on the forehead. Highly recommended.

Quite amazing

I have owned many headlamps in my time for camping and home. many cheap ones and a couple of pricey ones. So my opinion comes from experience when I say that the Bilby 400 is the most compact, comfortable and brightest headlamp s that I’ve come across. It is also the most dynamic with its multiple brightness settings on spot, Flood, ambient, red and read modes. I particularly like the instant Max brightness option. So happy with it that I bought another for the wife ( she’s a runner)
