Tactical helmet accessory designed to rebalance helmets fitted with heavy front night-vision gear and reduce neck pressure. Greater comfort and steadier wearing make long airsoft sessions and training less tiring with the YChoolco Tactical Helmet Counterweight Pouch. Is adding a rear counterweight pouch a sensible upgrade for your kit?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Wearing Comfort: Reduces forward pitch from front-mounted NVG and helps distribute load at the rear
- • Best for: Operators and airsoft players who mount heavy front NVG or accessories
- • Not ideal for: Users with helmets that lack rear screw mount points or who do not use front-mounted gear
Removable counterweight system totals 225g using five 45g blocks. Attaches via two large rear screws and can double as battery storage for AA/AAA cells.
Reduced Neck Strain – Thanks to Adjustable Counter Blocks
Five removable counterweight blocks add up to a total system weight of 225g; each block weighs 45g and can be added or removed to fine-tune balance. Blocks clip or stack inside the rear pouch to change the rear load in small increments.
Easier to wear helmets for longer periods by countering forward tilt from night-vision gear. Neck fatigue decreases as the rear weight evens out helmet balance.
Convenient Battery Storage – With Space for AA/AAA Batteries
Interior space in the counterweight pouch can accept common battery sizes such as AA and AAA, allowing spare cells to be carried at the rear. Locating batteries at the rear contributes to the counterbalancing effect.
Spare power cells stay secure and immediately to hand, while also contributing to rear weight so there is no need for a separate battery pouch.
Fast Fitting to Fast Helmets – Thanks to Two Rear Screw Mounts
Installation requires removing two large screws at the helmet rear, positioning the pouch and re-tightening the screws for a secure fit. The mounting method matches rear screw points found on many fast-style helmets.
Quick to install or remove between sessions, with compatibility aimed at common fast helmet mounting patterns for hassle-free use.
