I have wanted a head torch for a while now but had resisted buying one as they always seemed a bit bulky and I wasn't sure how efficient they would be and how long the batteries would last.
A friend of mine showed me this item which I found very impressive so I set about looking on the internet for one and hopefully at the right price as they are fairly expensive.
I am extremely pleased with it,the unit is very well made,lightweight,and has an excellent beam especially as it is a single LED.It can be seen from 3000metres according to the instruction leaflet which may be a good safety feature.
The beam is switched on by a single push button and has five distinct positions which allow the unit to be angled downwards at varying degrees which is fantastic for doing fiddly jobs such as changing tackle etc.
The battery pack contains 3 AAA batteries which is supposed to give up to 50 hours.
It is fully adjustable and is extremely comfortable to wear.
It comes complete with a pouch which will fit onto a belt or PFD straps etc.
I paid £17.99 for it from 7dayshop but they are normally £23.99.
Just a quick note about 7day shop,I have been buying from them for about 5 years now,they are especially good for camera equipment,rechargeable batteries and nearly everything electronic.The postage is now free as well so it is well worth looking at.
The website address is www.7dayshop.com.
The manufactures website for the headtorch is www.ledco.co.uk
