Head Torch

nice piece of kit this is my third one. one for the house one for the van and one for the jeep.

These are genuinely great head torches for their price. These later models seem to be getting loaded with features, so this one has adjustable beam, which is basically holding a button down to change the LED from the spot version to the flood version. A bit of a gimmick perhaps. The light output is great though for what you get. This provides a nice clean light with excellent illumination and a clean throw. I like that the first option is to Red LED, so this ensures if you are working at night it does not ruin your night vision with the White light first. Granted they take AAA batteries rather than being 'rechargeable' but I think this works well. You can always replace the batteries with a fresh set for example. It is a personal preference. They last a good few hours on full power. I actually prefer this one to the 450 Lumen model (Energizer Vision HD Ultra). That one is overly complicated to get full power and when both are on full power I think this 400 Lumen model actually provides better, or even more, light. It is also a whiter light too which I think is preferable. This still uses the excellent battery holder and head strap design. It is good the strap is replaceable too. Recommended!

First of all. Amazon has been really great for me this past year. Very reliable throughout the lockdown periods. Thank you 🙏 So... anyway, I needed a torch as I ran over my last handheld. I decided on this as I have things to do under my land rover and the handsfree options were far better. The packaging had some perforations to make opening the pack easy, but somehow fell apart in my hands. See pics.!! Very light and surprisingly comfortable. I use it over my cap. With four different brightness level, I think anyway. The brightness is adjusted by holding down the button and it’s a gradual change from high to the lowest setting. Not in click steps. It makes smooth transition from highest setting (all led’s are active) a focused beam (only middle bulb active) then transitioning to flood lights that are an led on each side of the central bulb. On top of that the “on” button control gives instant access to the most brightest and lowest as well as activating the red light. One other reason i had, when ordering, is the infra red light. Now I know that it isn’t a real night vision but it looked cool to me and it might work well in a darkroom. I’m not to sure on the last one. But red led’s appear like candy to me, and this in real life is very sweet! So that’s why it’s my first picture taken. I scored it little lower because there’s no beam option and doesn’t light up too good in open spaces. You might not startle any animals when hunting but you’re not going to see much either!! 😂😂 plus it’s nothing much other than a couple led’s, a bit gimmicky really. The build quality is great and the price on offer at £13 pounds, was average. If you shop around. If you need it to ride bicycle at night. Then you need both front and rear led. Front to see and rear so you’re visible to others. This head light is okay if you already have flashing rear led on already, On longer term you could do better than this. This is a multi purpose work light and I wouldn’t recommend it for commuting on a bike at night. Although it is a good short term solution. I will be using this a lot so I don’t think the battery life is worth talking about other than that their energizers and I prefer Duracell. Overall it was a damn good purchase on my part. I’m really pleased with and I would definitely recommend it.

Great product. Angle adjustment function is very useful. Comes with batteries which is a bonus. Its very comfortable on the forehead. Great value for money. I use it indoors as well because my room is on the shadow side, it's dark almost every time. Very handy. I always been using my phones torch ligh until now and had been struggling actually shine the light on the object, but now my life has become a tad bit easier. Why I didn't think of this earlier makes me feel little stupid haha.

Short review, love it, worth every penny. We caravan and I also work on my Vespa scooter, the reason I bought a head torch was because we knew we would arrive on the caravan site that I'm sat writing this review on in the dark, and having tried a hand held tourch, in the wife's hands not only did the beam wander at the exact time I needed to see, but it prevented her from unpacking so lengthened the set up process. I bought the 250 version thinking for the price it would do, well it exceeded my expectations by a country mile, setting up in complete darkness was a dream, I'm not going to say it was like day light, come on its a little box on your head, not your own personal sun. Straps comfortable, torch doesn't feel heavy or in the way, it did shine in my eyes like a previous poster stated so I simply put it higher up on my head!! I went for a battery version as sod law states when you need it the thing will be flat, with battery's swap them over with a spare set. It has a tilt function which makes a loud click, it does sound like it's going to break but so far so good. Every camper really needs one of these, this product works! On the mechanics front again even in a well lit garage having the extra beam of light pointing were you need whilst hands are free is equally a bonus. 11 out of 10

This is my 2nd purchase of this head torch (HDD323), though I think this one is an upgrade of my old one. The previous one lasted me quite a few years and I used it frequently, mostly for reading at night and being able to knit in low light. I'm amazed how cheap this is for such a great torch. This one is very bright using the disposable batteries that are included in the pack (3 x AAA). I usually use rechargeable batteries which although are better for the environment & more cost effective, I don't think are as powerful. Love the red light and the way I can alter the white light's beam by holding down one of the buttons. I had a pretty basic Petzel head torch a few years back but I found this Energizer torch far superior. Highly recommend this

My dad is the most difficult person to shop for. This was the first time he reached out so excitedly, took it from my arms, put it on, switched it on, and immediately went to the garden to test it. Win! The light intensity is adjustable and the brightest scale is really very very bright. If you wear this on a bike on full intensity, whoever's cycling towards you won't be able to see anything, so I would refrain from doing that. The elastic band fit my dad's head very well and adjusted perfectly. I think you could even war it over a helmet easily. The batteries are included so he could use it straight away, which was a plus. There's a bit of flexibility to where the light will point - you can adjust it to point right ahead of you or on the floor. My dad dropped it at least twice the first few days - once on wet surface - but it didn't seem to be damaged. He also used it during a power cut to keep working on his sudoku (after going outside to make sure the electricity poles and cables were not damaged), while also wearing his reading glasses. Needless to say he's pleased with having both his hands free. Very happy with this purchase.

This is really great. Very bright and comfortable to wear. Can also be adjusted when being worn to aim the light exactly where you need it. Would highly recommend. Fantastic value.

Ich habe die Lampe mit 250 Lumen (wie auf der Abbildung) haben wollen, da mir dies für Astrofotografie locker ausreicht und ich daher lieber eine längere Batterielaufzeit habe. Allerdings habe ich die 400 Lumen Version bekommen (anderer Blister, aber Lampe und Stirnband sehen gleich aus). Wenn man genau liest, steht auch 400 Lumen in der Beschreibung; da passen zwei Dinge halt nicht ganz zusammen. Da ich sowieso meist nur die zwei Rotlich-LEDs und nicht die Weiß-Scheinwerfer brauche, fällt das in der Praxis wahrscheinlich nicht wirklich ins Gewicht und ich schicke die Stirnlampe daher nicht zurück. Die Lampe selber ist Klasse, die beiden Knöpfe auf der Oberkante lassen sich auch noch mit dünnen Stoffhandschuhen gut bedienen. Rot und weiß (gering und hell) lassen sich getrennt anschalten oder "durchblättern". Das findet man recht schnell raus. Beim Rotlicht muss man dieses ca. 5s lang brennen lassen, damit der anschließende Tastendruck es ausschaltet. Drückt man früher drauf, blättert man durch. Zudem ist die Lampe in mehreren Winkeln kippbar, sodass man nicht nur weit geradeaus sondern auch in kurzem Abstand sowie runter zu den Füßen oder Händen (z.B. Hantieren mit der Kamera) bei Bedarf gut ausleuchten kann. Das war mir wichtig. Alles in allem 5 von 5 Punkten.

tres bonne lampe, bonne qualité eclaire assez bien

Ok

Very bright. Good value for the money. Not as durable as some headlights out there but seems to be brighter than most. Been camping twice and hasn't let me down.

My husband and I both have this Head Torch and have used them many times, they have always been very reliable, easy to pack and carry. Also the different lights are handy depending on the situation.
