Thanks for that john

they are a brilliant head torch ,ive used one since they came out for barbel fishing through the night and early morning starts and late finishes,the red light is good for baiting up/putting flies on without throwing a beam of white light around and they do give off good light in white operation..

I got one of these from Argos a few years back and it's been great, genuinely worth every penny. It's one of the few headlights I've seen that has a sensible red light. Very often you have to click through the white light to get to the red one, or a red light is only tacked on as a gimmicky flashing emergency light or something. With this one, you can just use it as a red light and never even turn the white on if that's what you want to do.

Thanks for that John, I've been looking to replace a clip-on one that's broken, and as Jim says, welcome back.

I use a Petzl one, more expensive but essentially the same thing. Head torches are fantastic, you just can't get by without them for fishing into the dark...

You also become a beacon in mid summer nights for every flying insect nature can throw at you and possibly the odd Bat

However they are 100 times better than holding a torch while trying to tie flies etc.

These , LED Lenser, head torches are the ultimate and explain my forum name of Lighthouse.

Which model though? For those prices you can get a Petzl which is a name I trust.
