Choosing a good and powerful hiking torch

2022-01-21

A good flashlight is always useful and can be used in many ways. It should not be missing in any home - you never know when the electrical installation may fail and cover your house or apartment in darkness. Moreover, it is an essential piece of equipment during longer and shorter trips into nature. How to find the perfect model for yourself? We give you a hint!

Tourist  headlamp

For experienced tourists, no weather or time of day is terrible, but when deciding on trips in the dark or those that may last until dusk, you must take proper care of your comfort and safety. Headlamps are the best model available in this case. They are very convenient to use because they are placed on the head. The hands are not burdened with anything, and the light source located just above the eyes optimally illuminates the space. However, a flashlight used in field conditions must be sufficiently powerful. Often moving in complete darkness, tourists can only rely on them, so they must be reliable, resistant to difficult weather conditions and made of the highest quality materials.

Which flashlights do we recommend?

A model that we can recommend with a clear conscience is Petzl TACTIKKA . It emits light with a power of 300 lumens and its beam has a range of up to 65 meters. The user can choose from three white light modes, which can be set using one button, and two red light modes, enabling trouble-free movement in the dark. Moreover, it also has a built-in emergency strobe mode, thanks to which the light is visible from a distance of 700 m for up to 400 hours. It is a universal and relatively inexpensive model, powered by traditional batteries (so-called sticks). We recommend it for everyday use and, for example, for camping in the forest. A much more advanced model, suitable for professional use and long hikes in difficult conditions, is the Armytek Wizard C2 PRO MAX Magnet . It is characterized by simplicity, reliability, high power (up to 400 lumens) and great quality of workmanship. The flashlight is designed to work even in very difficult conditions - it is water-resistant to a depth of 10 m and is resistant to falls from the same height. For fans of survival and bushcraft , this is one of the best options. It can be worn on the head, but a special clip included in the design allows it to be attached to a backpack or jacket. It has 10 lighting modes programmed, including stroboscopic. It is powered by the included battery. The set also includes  a bicycle holder and a quick charger.

Powerful LED flashlights

LED technology ensures energy efficiency and high light efficiency. It is therefore not surprising that it was also used to produce flashlights. Small, high-power hand-held flashlights are very functional and useful accessories. You can use them during evening walks, repairing your car or looking after the farm. One of the most interesting models available in this category is Olight BATON 3. It is equipped with an efficient Cool White LED with a power of 1200 lumens. The body is made of knurled aluminum, which is both light and extremely durable. The rough texture prevents it from slipping out of your hand. There is a strong magnet on the cap, which is useful in situations when you need two free hands to work - thanks to the magnet, the flashlight can be attached to any flat metal surface. It is sold in a set with a MCC 1 A magnetic charging cable, an IMR16340 550mAh 3.7V battery, a lanyard and a case. This model fits in your hand, and thanks to its compact size, you can take it with you anytime and anywhere. Another LED handheld flashlight  worth recommending is  the Armytek Prime C1. This light, handy, pocket-friendly model surprises with its efficiency, power and functionality. It has 6 lighting modes and its maximum power is up to 1,200 lumens. It is waterproof (up to 10 m deep) and durable enough to withstand a fall from a height of 10 m. Thanks to the clip on the housing, the flashlight can be attached to a backpack or jacket, and the strong magnet on the cap allows you to attach it to any flat surface. metal surface. It can be used in the workshop, garage or in the yard. It is perfect for unexpected situations. The set includes a flashlight, holster, clip, USB charger,  18350 - Li-Ion 900 mAh    battery and 2 spare O-rings.

Camping flashlights

Lovers of camping, sleeping in tents and nature trips certainly have the right camping flashlight in their kit. Among our proposals in this category - and we have quite a lot of them - the following deserve special mention: NEBO - LED flashlight and camping lamp - Poppy - 300 lumens. It has a classic look and form of a lantern, but it can be quickly transformed into a point light source. It is perfect for use in the forest, by the lake and other places far from civilization, but it will also work as an emergency light source at home or in the garden. Finding the perfect flashlight for your needs doesn't have to be difficult. Just define your expectations precisely and the right model will surely find us quickly.
