Multi-functional and high-power head torch.
Good day
everyone Today I would like to introduce an interesting head-torch. High
quality light and reasoned design makes it very handy to use in nature.
The parcel was a
compact cube in packaging film.
Inside the box
is wrapped in air bubble film.
Characteristics
and operation manual are given on the box.
Opening the box
to have a look at the torch itself.
Unboxed torch
looks more attractive.
The torch
consists of the head, body, elastic bands and battery holder. The head of the
torch and elastic bands are covered with MARPAT
Desert US
marines camouflage paint. The battery holder is painted in olive color.
The torch head
is made of aluminum and has cooling fins. The reflector is flat. The torch uses
popular proven light-emitting diode CREE XML-T6. Power supply, mode switcher
and fastener to the base is located on the plastic made part that is bolted to
the back part of torch head. Assembled head of the torch is fastened by the
hinge on bolt. The stroke is tough, stroke angle exceeds 90 degrees.
The wire that
feeds power to LED is in black thick insulation and is ergonomically fixed by
the fasteners near elastic band.
Approximately in
the middle it is put into bumping spiral.
The battery
holder consists of two parts: plastic base and silicon cap.
The cap firmly
fits to the base. Steel ring protects from loss.
Battery holder accommodates two
batteries 18650. I used protected ones they are easily installed and removed.
The panel of charging device is located beneath.
Input for
charging outside is closed with blind plug.
Signal LED red
lamp (red plastic) is located at outer surface of battery holder.
The base is
plastic one, light weight and has ergonomic bend.
The length of
elastic band can be adjusted by stretching and with plastic buckles.

Impressions.
Visually looks
nice. Camouflage paint, colors, shades and design leave pleasant impressions.
Touching also feels very pleasant. Matte
plastic without chipping, soft silicone, cool metal, fabric elastic band. Not
heavy.
No strong odor from plastic and elastic band.
Fits the head tightly. Nothing wrings.
The light.
The torch driver has three lighting modes.
Bright - Dim - Stroboscope that are switched subsequently. Also there is a red
signal light at front surface of battery holder.
Impressions from
lighting. The bright mode is like a car's headlight. High capacity spot light.
Light pylon. It breaks the dark. Searching activities, area observation,
lighting up the road. As an option it can be used as a lamp, it illuminates a
room very well. In a dim mode it provides a good assistance and does not blind
anyone with reflected rays. It suits well for giving illumination for most
kinds of work. The color temperature of light is neutral white, pleasant for
eyes.
I had no
opportunity to check the runtime.
Later I
discovered that the torch works even from one battery 18650
Luxmeter at a
one meter distance.
Bright
Dim
The torch has a
wide divergence angle. Beam shots in the outdoors. From the garage 3-4 meters.
Bright
Dim
Checking at
small distance.
Bright. Not
handily, the torch's beam blinds.
Dim. To my
surprise this mode turned out to be very effective. Wide beam angle of such
brightness is very convenient for work.
Unfortunately I
have no opportunity to go tho nature theses days. So I put a few pictures taken
in the city.
There is about 200 meters to building's
wall. Hot spot diffuses but it is still visible.

As a conclusion
I can say that this is a very good gadget. Multi-functional indeed. Perfect
gift. Excellent choice for people who rest and work in nature, like hunters,
fishermen, tourists, travelers, bicyclists. It will also be useful for people
who live in separate houses. This torch allows to light up large areas and at
far distances in a bright mode and is appropriate for illuminating all kind of
manual work activities at close distance.
