Why it works

Head torches have something a hand torch lacks: they leave the hands free for building a den, reading under the covers or hunting for bugs at night. Ledlenser makes torches for mountaineers, and this model is designed for children, with optics that do not dazzle and 40 lumens of light.

Our verdict

A spot-on gift before a summer camp. As the main birthday gift it is too small.

They will like it if

  • they go to camp or camping
  • they read in bed in secret
  • they like playing explorers

Bear in mind

  • it runs on one AAA battery that has to be replaced
  • it is not a toy to leave with under-fives unsupervised

What's in the box

  • 40 lumens
  • White, red and blue light with a flashing mode
  • Runs on 1 AAA battery
  • Metal clip for attaching it to clothing
  • 2-year guarantee
  • Needs batteries or charging
