'EXCELLENT TORCH'
Strengths:
Very light, easy to use, has in integrated design to stop it being accidently switched on, fits easily onto petzl helmets
Overall:
I use this torch all the time; running after dark, early alpine starts, evenings camping in Scotland. It's a great all rounder. The LEDs are supposed to last 180 hours on the 4AA batteries, and in my experience the come close to that. The halogen bulb is very useful for flicking on occasionally when climbing to pick out a route. The whole combination is very light and fits easily and quickly onto a petzl helmet (I use an ecrin roc). The on/off switch is easy to use, even with thick gloves on, and the integrated safety design stops the torch being accidently turned on in bags, etc. My version (a myobelt 3) has the battery pack seperate to the rest of the headtorch and is excellent for very cold use, where the batteries can be kept inside your clothes to keep them warm and retain battery life.
Overall a great torch that i'd happily recommend.
