The third-generation LED lighted cap from Panther Vision has three LEDs to shine light right where you need it. A single ultra-bright high beam spotlight is set into the leading edge of the brim, just like the previous Panther Vision LED caps. This high beam LED is twice as bright as those in earlier caps to deliver the same amount of light out to 15 feet (4.5 m), and it's visible up to a mile away (1.2 km). It's great for walking, hiking, camping, hunting, and all the other outdoor activities for which you've always used your Panther Vision lighted hat.

The Power Cap's new trick adds two standard-brightness LEDs under the brim, near the switch. These low-beam floodlights are angled down to focus without glare on up-close tasks like reading, hobbies, and home repair projects. Panther Vision calls this patented invention "C.U.B. Technology" (Concealed Under Brim).

The switch sewn into the Power Cap brim lets you select just the high beam, just the low beams, or all three together. Four CR-2032 coin cell batteries (included) are concealed in a hat band compartment. They can last up to 75 hours in normal use and are easily replaceable. The LEDs themselves are said to last an average of 12 years. Every cap comes with a limited manufacturer's warranty from Panther Vision.

The cap is high-quality 100% brushed and washed 16x12 cotton twill with piping in the bill. It has a top button and six sewn eyelets. A color-coordinated sweat band has a foam sandwich layer for added comfort. The cap is unadorned except for the Panther Vision logo sewn, unobtrusively in matching thread, into the bottom of the bill. The blank front of the cap can easily accept any embroidered logo you want to add (sorry, but Curio City does not embroider or imprint). These are lightweight, comfortable, low-profile six-panel baseball caps with a velcro adjustment strap to fit most heads.

3-LED Power Cap or 2-LED Cap?

The 3-LED Power Cap solves the nuisance of aiming the older, single-focus caps. You no longer need to point the brim down the bridge of your nose when you're doing close-up work. Those of us who wear eyeglasses or who use our caps mainly for detail work will definitely find the Power Cap to be a superior product. The low beams do not glare in your eyes. Power Caps need twice as many batteries (four instead of two). The four-position switch will require twice as much clicking as the simple on/off switch.  

We have a few 2-LED lighted caps left. They're no longer being manufactured and are selling out quickly. Some colors might never be produced as Power Caps. Click here to see what we have left.

Structured or Unstructured?

"Structured" LED hats have buckram batting sewn into the two front panels to give the hat stiffness and shape. "Unstructured" lighted caps are soft and formless (crushable). Not all colors are available in both styles. The dropdown list above shows you all of the combinations you can choose. Which is better? It's purely a matter of personal preference. We sell equal numbers of both types. Both types can be embroidered (Curio City does not offer embroidering). We don't provide separate photos of structured and unstructured caps because they look pretty much the same while being worn. People with small heads (including women and children) usually find that unstructured caps fit more comfortably.

About Volume Pricing

Discounted prices apply to orders of identical caps shipped to a single address. You may not mix and match colors or styles, or combine separate orders, to attain these discounts. Volume pricing is subject to availability -- we do not always have enough caps in every style to fulfill very large orders. Please use our Contact form to ask about availability if you need more caps in a particular style than we have on hand -- we can usually get as many as you need, but it might take a week or so. Volume price discounts may be discontinued at any time without notice.

Quantity discounts will scale with each cap's base price. That is, if a camo cap's base price is $2 more than a solid cap, then the discounted prices will also be $2 higher than those displayed in the table.

About Panther Vision caps in general:

There are still people who don't know about lighted caps from Panther Vision. If you are among the unenlightened, you'll soon see why LED caps are ideal for:

• working on your car or in your shop
• reading in low light
• grilling after dark
• running, walking, or hiking
• fishing, camping, or hunting
• outdoor recreation and games
• pet walking and child safety
• power outages

These caps are ideal for plumbers, computer technicians, electricians, mechanics, cable installers, building inspectors, public safety officials, utility workers, and anyone else whose job sometimes takes them to poorly-lit locations.

The Mayor's Choice

The Mayor says: I was skeptical when Panther Vision told me that they were redesigning their caps. I use my old 2-LED cap all the time for chores around the house. How could adding one more LED improve on that? Well, my Power Cap made me an instant believer the first time I used it to grill after dark. The low beams put the light exactly where I need it -- even though I wear bifocals -- without having to adjust the cap on my head. Best of all, the under-brim lights don't glare in your eyes.
