ALPKIT GAMMA III £26

It’s far from the best designed or most powerful, but for this price you can’t complain. You get a maximum output of 150 lumens for 7 hours, 70 lumens for 18 hours in low, and then up to 45 hours of burn time in the white LED (10 lumens), green LED (7 lumens) and red LED (5 lumens) modes. The rear battery pack takes three AAAs and features a red LED so you can be seen from behind. VERDICT A decent headtorch for basic tasks, at a very affordable price-point – but it’s not very powerful.
