GREAT ALLROUNDER

Very powerful for such a lightweight torch. Works fine for navigating at night. Boost button works well. Comfortable to wear and takes up very little space in pack or pocket. Uses aaa batteries, so it's easy to carry spares.
Battery life not as good as advertised (though still ok), particularly in colder conditions (Myo XP with belt pack is a better option for regular winter use). No voltage regulator, so power gradually fades. Buttons quite small if wearing thick gloves.
Great allrounder that works well in most conditions.

IT'S NOT A CHICKEN TIKKA, IT'S WELL WORTH THIRTY FIVE NICKER

Battery life is soup herb.
Has a boost button for when you can't find that blinkin path junction. Have yourself a tent disco with the flashing mode. Woo woo!
OK, it's not a lighthouse, but it is lightweight.
This is light (!), comfortable enough to wear for extended periods and flexible; three light levels along with those mentioned above.

A GREAT LITTLE TORCH

I picked this up from Up and Under for £34.04. Which was below what I set out for my budget. After struggling with a hand torch through thick forests I needed hands free.

This is a truely powerful little torch, with a nice on the head, head band. Two viewing modes beam and difused.
The only weakness with this is possibly those buttons but I have narrow fingers so its not a problem but am sure for others it would be.
Great little torch, powerful light on the smallest of batteries.
