I've just bought a new torch to walk to the pub with an led lenser P6. cripes its bright, only 2 AA batteries but you would not want to look into the lens , it hurts, a lot.

note to self , do not look into the lens ever again. and read the safety label on the torch that states "do not look into lens" At work
At home

You should have bought 2 of the head mounted version.


One to face forward so you can see where you are going.

The second to face backwards to blind anyone approaching from behind  2002 Honda VFR800
2002 Toyota Celica 140 Silver (mid life crisis - again!)
2007 FL2 GS Manual Army Reconnaissance Green + freel2.com sticker
2004 Toyota Celica 140 Black - Gone
2000 Toyota Celica 140 Silver - Gone
1998 Toyota Celica ST Pearl Green - Gone
1996 Nissan Primera 1.6 - Gone
1994 Rover Montego 1.6 Auto - Gone

Is it metal and can you hit people with it?  John
07 HSE Narvick Black
Land Rover Series One
Triumph Rocket 111 (sadly gone!)

Very good torches CG, I bought a couple of them, wife has one in her handbag, 78 lumens, as you say don't look at the light!, also bought the P14, 210 Lumens with only four AA batteries, it's like handheld Xenons.

"also bought the P14, 210 Lumens with only four AA batteries, it's like handheld Xenons." At last, a solution for aethelstan's adaptive Xenon's problem..... a couple of swivel mounts and some string attached to the steering wheel. He could spray them to colour code as well.......

Goodness me, we don't get this sort of thing happening here in South London. The Peckham lads are much too busy shooting each other. Hope you are fully recovered CG. Must remember to put my foot down hard next time I'm going up the A1. Dangerous place Yorkshire.
