Battery Detake Operated Head Torch

Great light, very bright and ideal size

We like these head torches so much that we have them in every vehicle and tool kit. We use other, leading-brand head torches for when you need to light a wide area outdoors (although these do well at that also), but where the Omeril head torches really come into their own is when working on equipment in poorly-lit areas or where there are shadows and you need that extra bit of brightness. The adjustable forward tilt is also very useful. They're excellent for distribution board work, and especially for close-in, fiddly work. We never use them on the low setting, and they'll last for a long day's continuous work, but with noticeable dimming towards the end of the day; so we sometimes change out the batteries if we're working very late. The 3xAAA batteries are so much more convenient than rechargeable batteries, as you can just keep on going and remove them at the end of a job to prevent corrosion. Changing the batteries is quick and easy - unlike some makes where you have to almost completely disassemble the torch for battery access. We also find the flashing third setting useful when walking outside in daylight to know when you're one press away from turning the torch off. They're also so lightweight and comfortable, that you just don't bother taking them off when you pause work for some reason. All in all, a brilliant (groan!) torch for the price. Highly recommended.

Bought to wear when doing cross stitch at night without having to use main light. Is super bright, feels comfortable and well worth the price!

Simply excellent - used for work in the winter months

Very bright. Adjustable. Good value for money.

Work well, bright light and cost-effective

Works well good value for money.

Really good for walking in dark streets and poking about in cupboards without turning the light on

The lamp is fine, however there is a really annoying whining noise when it's on the second setting. Probably OK if you're outside and there are other ambient noises, but when you're in your home during a power cut it's very irritating.
