[QUOTE=Yorkshire Rob;355391]I have an energizer head torch from Argos which tilts to the direction you want it, it's brilliant for off-roading in the dark. I used it all last winter and it was a godsend.
Thanks Rob, I have reserved one of these from Argos. I am surprised and pleased to find Energizer claims the Extreme Cree is waterproof even when immersed (IPX7) unlike many much more expensive torches eg the Petzl Tikkas and Myos which are only water resistant/splash-proof (IPX4). It seems to me that being benighted is more likely to happen in bad weather, and it would be the last straw when lost in the dark and wet to be worrying also about one's head torch's getting soggy. I do wonder if the torch is a bit heavy - 250g, despite only using one AA battery.
