Abstract
A medical headlamp assembly, including a headlamp subassembly and a headstrap subassembly, that has a headstrap having an interior surface that touches the user's head when the headstrap is being worn. Battery holders are supported by the headstrap away from the headstrap interior surface, so that batteries held by the battery holders have no interior surface that is closer than 2 mm away from the headstrap interior surface, and thereby, away from the user's head. Also, battery contacts are positioned to be contacted by batteries held in the battery holders. Finally, an electrical network is electrically connected to the battery contacts and a headlamp subassembly connector, physically connected to the headlamp subassembly and electrically connects the headlamp subassembly to the electrical network.
