In reply to An Triubhas:
A brilliant headtorch and mine lives in the car (or the big bag if im not taking the car) for when i arrive at a campsite and need a torch to allow me to see to set up.
a great campsite torch
pros=
-good white lights (focused beam and wide beam)
-red light for keeping night vision
-green light for keeping night vision but allowing contours to be seen on a map.
- red light on back of head is good for road walking / letting people follow you.
- easy to turn on with gloves or mitts on
- nice price!
cons=
- the white light comes on first and you have to ccle through the green light to get to the red light ( this causes any night vision you had to be lost and therefore dfies using the red light although this can be combatted by remembering to put you hand over the light when turning it on, but not always possible / able to remember )
- can be easily turned on when not in use.
so overall its a good buy but could be made extremely brilliant with a couple of slight changes.
