Best head torches 2023

If you have ever owned a head torch you will know that once you have had a good head torch you cant imagine using a hand held torch ever again. Why would you waste one of your hands holding a torch when you can have a torch on your head that points in the exact direction your looking without lifting a finger. That leaves both of your hands free to do whatever it is your doing. 

What makes a good head torch?

So what are the things we want to look out for when choosing the perfect head torch, well first of all our head torch needs to have a very comfortable strap that keeps the torch perfectly in place but is also very lightweight so you often forget its on your head. Aside from a comfortable strap your head torch needs to have a good battery life, there's nothing worse than a torch that you charge for hours but lasts just minutes so we want to be sure of a good quality battery in our head torch. You will want at least a 5 hour run time on your head torch preferably with a battery saving mode. 

Its also important your head torch is weather resistant or completely waterproof, its not worth paying around £20 for a head torch only for a bit of rain to destroy it this is especially important if your living in the UK as you can never trust the British weather. And last but not least your head torch needs to be shockproof and sturdy try to avoid the cheaply made torches imported in bulk from cheap dodgy wholesale websites and sold by hundreds of sellers in the UK and US. Below we have compiled a small list of the best cheap head torches available in the UK most of them have hundreds or thousands of reviews and have a very high rating on amazon.
