PETZL IKO CORE £77

An innovative re-imagination of the headtorch, this eye-catching product features the sunglasses-like AIRFIT headband with rear battery pack and seven-LED front lamp. At 79g it’s light and airy, with three power modes and two beam types. All stats are premium (500 lumens and 100-hour burn time) and the battery is impressively versatile – recharge via USB or switch out for three AAAs.

VERDICT A unique and innovative headtorch with impressive stats and an eye-catching design.
