Notes

Trivia

  • Typical Template:Ws have either a fitting attached to them or molded into their surface, for the purpose of holding such a light. Since the Engineer wears a construction worker's hard hat, the light must be attached by non-conductive leather or nylon straps.
  • As of January 13, 2013 this hat was retired, and is no longer able to be acquired through the store, crafting, or randomly dropped. Additionally it can not be unboxed as an unusual.
