Information
The Mining Light is the first unlockable headwear item for the Engineer. It appears as the Engineer's regular yellow safety helmet with the addition of a strap-on helmet lamp typically used by miners. The lamp can not be switched on or off or be used to light up dark areas; however, it visibly glows in the dark.
Trivia
- Typical miner's helmets[1] have a fitting either attached to them or molded into their surface, for the purpose of holding such a light. Since the Engineer wears a construction worker's Hardhat, the light must be attached by non-conductive leather or nylon straps.
- The Engineer wears his hardhat backwards, which is not an uncommon practice amongst roughnecks and other skilled laborers. However, this means that the mining light is actually strapped to his helmet incorrectly, though facing forwards.
- For performance reasons, the Mining Light hat does not include the hard hat itself. This means custom content creators cannot replace the Mining Light and hard hat at the same time without editing the player model.
