Streamlight 14057 Sidewinder Rail Mount Adapter, Coyote

Works Geat-As Expected. Item Arrived Quickly. Packaging was adequate. Feel of product = QUALITY Nice, Necessary, and Designed Beautifully. Christopher H. Los Angel's

Great mount didnt realize ita not inteded for weapons mounting. You coukd use it but it would likely cause the light to vibrate into a new direction. My bad I will not knock a star for that.

Very good mount on my Team Wendy exfil3.0. Just make sure you loosen the screw before you try to mount it to the helmet

Works perfectly with my sidewinder flashlights. Have used them for many things. I have picatinny rails on my bikes and use these to quickly attach/detach lights.

Works exactly as described. Good product just grossly overpriced.

Very simple interface. Clamps onto a rail on your helmet and allows for a Streamlight Sidewinder Compact Tactical Flashlight to slip on and off with ease. The round plastic disk of this adapter slips into the clip mount of the Sidewinder and then slides forward to lock into place. There's no modification needed to the flashlight, it will still work clipped onto a ball cap or into the head strap.

I have one on a team Wendy helmet and also a HHV helmet. It's an excellent piece of kit for the Sidewinder compact.

First let me prefece with the fact I'm using the larger sidewinder with the double A battery pack. This item has a place absolutely. If you need to move your sidewinder to free up a hand while you dig in a bag great. Attaches quickly but also detachs easily. You absolutely wouldn't want to go through a heavily wooded area using this as a primary light with this attached to a helmet (definitely not a rifle either) One good bump and your lights hitting the deck or since it also lacks a way to lock it from rotating your knocking your light up or down as it spins around shining every which way. I am also not a fan of how high it makes the light sit but that has the perk of not allowing for your helmet to cast shadows in your path of vision to a degree. So would I buy it again? For the price point probably not. My opinion may change as I get more field use but I can't recommend this product unless you find yourself needing to switch between hands and head mount but you could do the same with many other headlamps. Only perk is the sidewinder has somewhat decent IR for NOD usage.
