Just bought my first ever headtorches - not for anything tricky - just to be able to take a small group of us away from the main roads on winter evening runs - in to some of the unlit backroads or tracks around Witton.

A Black Diamond Spot is the main one for the lead runner and a Petzl Tikka for the tail runner in the group.

5 of us went out last week and had no problems at all.

Both lights are fine for general individual use. They together light adequately for a small group.

The Spot is a better option and I would be confident of going on to fell with that - but not with the Tikka.

Both are light weight and easy to run with.
