Just a simple head lamp, probably adjustable, occasional use where
hands free and a bit of extra light needed.

I have a Draper LED (one or three lights) with a hand recharger but it
really isn't very bright and doesn't retain charge for long (3.6v
80mAh NiMh batteries).

I'd be happy with 2 or 3 AAA and I'd then use Eneloop rechargeable.

So much stuff on the market - some looks sensible eg:

but some practical recommendations welcomed.


I used head torches extensively all my working life. I've had quite a
few, but the Ledlenser H7R.2 is the best:

Yes, I note one of the guys on The Repair Shop has one of those. But
I'm not going to be an extensive user so I was hoping for something a
bit more in my pay grade - we didn't all work in lofty positions you
know.
