LightHouseL/HEHEAD150R Elite Headlight Rechargable 150 Lumens Sensor Activated , Black

Good value.The product description omits a couple of key features:● The battery is a standard 18650 Li-Ion replaceable battery; spare batteries (Lighthouse) can easily provide extra run time.● Once the lamp has been On for more than a few seconds in any output mode, just one press of the switch turns it Off. A nice touch!Sensor Operation: a clever idea that works well, but only in High mode. It's cancelled by pressing the switch. A LED to the left of the COB glows red when sensor operation is active. If you really need an SOS function, then activate sensor mode and send SOS manually: SOS in morse code [… --- …] - 6 quick [S] waves of the hand in front of the torch, pause, 6 slow waves [O], pause, 6 quick [S], longer pause - repeat sequence until rescued! ;)The torch can be recharged at any time no matter how much charge remains. It’s important to read the two-page guide in the pack on Li-Ion rechargeable batteries.Beam: It’s a fixed wide-angle floodlight spread over about 160° horizontally, and 110° vertically, with pretty much full illumination over better than around 120° H x 90° V. The COB array and no focusing ensures a complete lack of bright spots or rings. The other evening, I sat it on the kitchen table pointing at the white ceiling (4 x 3m) - High gives enough light to cook, eat and read during a power cut.This was bought to replace a cheap 3 x AAA COB headlamp (~ 100/35 lumens) that has several shortcomings as a work-lamp for arms-length work: Low power isn’t quite bright enough even on new batteries, but High is too bright; in either mode it eats batteries – a couple of sets for a day’s work. Relegated to the car boot for emergency use.Comparing the two torches, the L/HEHEAD150R on Low is almost as bright as the ‘cheapo’ on High, plenty of light for working at arm’s length (decorating, working on vehicles) with a claimed 12 hours duration. I don’t do 12-hour days, but I've used it for several days redecorating a dark passageway, just need to put it on charge at the end of the day. It’s supplied partly charged, it must be fully charging before first use.There's a 'hole' either side of the LED COB array - one is for the motion sensor,the other allows the bi-colour charging LED (Red charging, Green fully charged), to be seen. The LED itself is under the 'bung that protects the charging socket.CAUTIONS:1. On High it's BLINDING at short range (<10m) – keep out of the hands of children; an accidental glance at it will leave a black spot in your vision for several minutes.2. Charging - a USB mains adaptor with an output of more than 1A is likely to cook the battery and could cause a fire or explosion; a PC’s USB port has a maximum output of 500mA (0.5A) so a full charge would take around 10 hours. Best to use the charger supplied!

Good lightweight head torch. Beam not strong enough for me. But I should have researched it better. My friend loves hers & it’s the same torch.

I kept pinching my partners lamp, so now I have my own. So handy. Will even buy one for our holiday cottage

Excellent, good quality, ideal to my work.

Great buy for walking at night

Great

Great head torch . This is my second on since losing my first one. Very bright and on full charge will last for a full day.

Superb last about 4 hours
