Torch for Dog Walking

[tusker]

Could anyone recommend a torch just for general use, dog walking etc. In the £20 bracket rechargable would be good.
Thanks, Tusker

For mid winter I use my Peltor head torch to light whilst I clean up after them. They are only allowed to go whilst on the common, not whilst we run and so it limits the time it is on as I don’t use a torch except for that. The torch kills your night vision and so use it sparingly.

100% headtorch. Whatever eBay / Amazon special if you want rechargeable for twenty quid.
If you want something decent the LED lenser

I like these. Not perfect but pretty decent. I have about four of them.

£30 on Amazon.
Fantastic, simple, very bright torch.
Has a clip so it can be used as a makeshift head torch with a cap

I got one of these, clear light, simple on/off switch, throws enough light to walk with and the angle of the light is just right

Head torch is the way to go - leaves hands free or able to go in pockets when cold!

I have a couple of LED Lenser ones - an H3.2 which uses 3xAAA batteries & is adequate, plus an H8R which uses an 18650 & has three power settings, it’s like a searchlight on full power!

Punch “ LED Head Torch” into search on eBay. Loads of them come up. Made in China, cheap as chips and damn good value.

Luceco torch from wickes, about £13 -really good and runs on an 18650 battery
