The All-New, Click-Satisfying Tactile Control Cable

Here at LumaDent, we listen to customer feedback and sync it with our impulse to innovate. 

You told us how you needed a headlight Cable that was built to last, and would make your workflow easier. We heard your feedback on our previous wire and then set ourselves to the task of designing a better headlight Cable.

Here’s our results.

Introducing the upgraded Tactile Control Cable, engineered for smoother, more intuitive loupe lighting control. It’s low-profile, durable, and satisfying to interact with. We noticed these switches in other industries and knew they’d be a good fit, after all who doesn’t love a good click?

Designed for Working Clinicians

• Designed for clinicians who want quick, ergonomic headlight control. “Efficient,” is the word. No more twisting and turning, just bump the switch with your wrist, back of your hand, arm, whatever.
• Haptic feedback that’s gratifying and feels deliberate when pressed. You have to experience it yourself.
• Compatible with all loupes (TTL & Vario) and the entire 360 Headlight Series (HL360, 360 Pro, 360 Max). Clicks enough for everyone.
• All ProLUX Headlight Packages will include these moving forward. We love moving forward.
• 2 versions designed for ProLUX and uniLUX. We didn’t forget you, our beloved UniLUX enthusiasts.
• Built to endure. The low-profile housing keeps components safe. 

What's New in the Tactile Control Cable?

We changed the design from the lever switch to a pill-shaped button that when depressed gives a responsive click sound. So that when you reach for your button, you find it fast, in the right position, and ready to turn on. It’s easier to press, requires less force, and the low-profile design minimizes accidental activation/deactivation.

The low-profile switch is mountable in 3 positions. Adheres to your temple arm or utilize the high-quality rubber o-bands in two different configurations.

Enhanced tactile feedback: delivers a firm, audible click you can sense and hear.

Sealed design helps keep out environmental factors like moisture, or dust, improving the lifespan of the switch.

Resilient and built to last: rated for over 5 million clicks. Activating it 100 times a day, it’d last you 136.99 years. Far too long to still be practicing dentistry, but knowing some dentists maybe not.

Easily Integrates into the LumaDent Eco-System.

Works seamlessly with all LumaDent frames thanks to a dual O-band mount system.

Four elastic O-bands secure the switch to the arm, regardless of frame width or style.

Switch stays firmly in place and is made of lightweight components, and it doesn’t have a thing that pokes out.

Choose the cable length that matches the loupe setup:

• Short version: perfect for TTL loupes.
• Long version: designed for Vario loupes.

Works with all Lumadent 360 series dental headlights. Just plug it in and get clicking.

Comes standard with all new ProLUX Headlight Packages.
