Hi chaps and chappettes,
I'm after a headtorch for holidays, ambling through forest, along beaches and suchlike after dark, and being able to see my beer despite the hotel having no generator.
Sooo... what's the best option out there for under £20?
Ta

Just to be different, I've got one of these and its ace!

They do different bigger versions too, but this one is tiny and ace.

Alpkit one is fantastic. Sometime soon I'll get around to getting a spare to keep in the car, much easier for any poking around at night in the rain than a torch. The white LED is superb for close field work and the main beam surprisingly powerful. For £13 you can't go wrong really!

Right, done - ordered an alpkit. Thanks to the chaps and chapesses of stw (Except if it turns up and is rubbish, obviously 🙂 )
