The headlamp is good, although the materials used do not make the best impression, but it illuminates very well. Plus for easy operation and a fair number of lighting modes. I can recommend it.
A lightweight head torch equipped with five LEDs. The main LED generates a light output of 140 lumens and a range of 150 meters. The head torch also has two energy-saving white LEDs for illuminating the immediate surroundings and two red LEDs.
Red light does not dazzle and does not destroy the ability to see at night. This makes the LED in this color ideal, for example, for reading a map or for discreet movement after dark.
The head torch is equipped with as many as seven modes in total:
- the main LED generates light in high, low or flashing mode,
- an additional white diode can shine in high or low mode,
- the red diode generates either constant or flashing light.
It is worth mentioning that it is possible not only to switch the head torch between the modes of individual LEDs, but also to turn on two light sources at once. A double button is used to operate the torch, allowing you to operate the main and side LEDs separately.
The torch's housing is rugged and waterproof to IPX4 standards. It is made of ABS polymer and features polycarbonate glass covering the LEDs. The use of a hinge makes it possible to adjust the tilt of the torch body and thus change the angle of the light.
Power supply is 3 AAA batteries (not included).

Overall, the headlamp works quite well – the light it gives is entirely sufficient, though nothing more. The build quality for the price is also simply adequate; you can feel the plastic to the touch, which gives an impression of lower quality. Waterproofness tested in rain and humidity – it worked properly, but I didn't test it under water or after falling into a puddle. Overall, the product is okay.

To the touch, you can tell that the best materials were not used in production. The beam angle adjustment works averagely (the torch easily changes angle when touched). It shines quite well and a big plus is the wide range of mode settings (two buttons), as well as quick access to the red light. For the price, it's okay.

After testing it during a night walk in the forest and cycling, I can confidently recommend this headlamp. It lights up distant objects in open areas well. However, for cycling in an unlit forest or more difficult conditions, I would choose something stronger. The solid build quality and many features mean it will work in most situations. I recommend it!

Great torch – small, comfortable, shines very brightly. It has good lighting modes. Ideal as an additional source of light for a tactical vest.
-
The torch does its job well. The red light could be stronger, but it's not a big problem — at night you'll always see something and remain unnoticed.
-
The product is really great for this price.

For this price, the torch is really good – strong light and a comfortable strap. However, it has some flaws: the tilt adjustment is loud and, out of concern it might wear out, I braced it with a cable tie. The green charging indicator remains constantly lit, even with the red light on – I had to tape it over. You can't turn the torch off without clicking through the S.O.S. and white light modes – there's nothing I can do about that :(
-
Lots of lighting options, the ability to adjust the angle. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended!
-
The headlamp matches the description and is practical. I recommend this product!
-
Very good head torch with strong lighting modes.
-
The torch is suitable for beginners. For PLN 47 you get very strong light – the main diode illuminates about 100 m, which in my opinion is definitely enough. First, continuous red light turns on (which is useful in the forest), then flashing red, and finally weak white light. Unfortunately, to turn off the torch you have to cycle through all modes. The angle adjustment is very loud and seems not very sturdy.

It worked great during night hikes in the Izera Mountains. It was also useful during cycling. I recommend this product at a good price.
