More Light Cast On e+LITE

As a quick follow-up to our recent report on the new - out in October - Petzl E+LITE emergency head torch, Petzl has sent us a couple of images showing just how the torch looks in use.

On a helmet, it's basically the same as a conventional head torch, but as you can see, the built-in spring clip also means you could clip it to, say, a cap brim, or a pack strap or anywhere else your imagination can come up with.

Full details of the e+LITE in our preview reports, links at the bottom of this story.
