My current head torch is so big and bulky and quite frankly constantly moves or falls around on my head. I keep seeing these band ones like Lumilight advertised - does anyone have one like this and if so would you recommend?
 
I didn't like the lumilight but highly rate Petzl - super lightweight & bright enough to actually see what you are doing outside!
I did have a quick look at these but no idea which one I'd need! Which one do you have? Don't want something to blind the horses but equally need to be able to see and also something handy for poo picking in the dark!

I currently have the Aktiv but used the Tikkina for many years quite happily :)

I found the Lumilight just not bright enough for poo picking and outdoor jobs when other light sources are non existent or poor. I've never struggled with either Petzl - although the Aktiv is stronger as I can light up not only my field but half the neighbouring farm fields currently on the strongest setting 🤣
 
I loved the look of the Lumilight so did some digging and bought a pack of two very similar from Amazon very recently and they are wonderful! They're rechargeable too so no getting caught out with no spare batteries.

I have one like that. You can cycle through super bright, not so bright and sensor.
The sensor is great as you just wave your hand to turn it on/off.
One of the horses thinks it is super fun to turn it on and off as I am bringing him in. :rolleyes:
