Abstract
A headlamp includes a strap, a bracket coupled to the strap, and a light assembly including a housing enclosing a light source and a battery for providing power to the light source. A magnetic interface is configured to removably couple the light assembly to the bracket. The magnetic interface includes a first magnetic element fixed to the bracket, and a second magnetic element fixed to the light assembly. The first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are configured to produce a magnetic attractive force to retain the light assembly relative to the bracket.
