For the low price of $45 this unused Light Monkey helmet can be yours.
Never in the water. Too small for me. Shipping - you call it, it's your nickel.

Brand new - $75 from Cave Adventures
Light Monkey Info
Helmets were very popular with cave divers in the late eighties and early nineties. Their use declined until sidemount diving made a comeback.
You won’t find any foam in the Light Monkey helmets; we use an adjustable suspension similar to a construction helmet. These helmets are available in one size that fits most. The size range is 20" to 23" (52 cm to 58 cm). In fact, some people remove the suspension altogether and use a thick hood for spacing. The helmet includes an adjustable chin strap made of soft nylon webbing with a quick disconnect buckle.
Please be advised: the helmets offer minimal impact protection and act more as a bump cap than a climbing helmet. The greatest advantage of the Light Monkey helmet is its suitability for mounting backup lights for easy access, or LED primary lights to free up your hands. Even better, it’s perfect for mounting a GoPro® camera!
