Headtorch recommendations

[FMCN]

Now everyone says the Silvas or whatever are the best lights on the beach and i just spent over 200 euro on a new Tiga with the fancy lightweight rechargeable batteries. This weekend is the first it will be out but when i turned it on in the shop and looked into it i couldn't see properly for about an hour .

I'm not even out fishin and headlamps are doin my head in again. I spent 290 on that spelio. However, I have to say that yer man in the shop knows wot he is talkin about. He's fished for Ireland loads of times and he won in Gambia last year. I think someone said he won it again this year and had heaviest fish.

Thanks rodger......

Eric, was that the headlamp you were using the other night ?

Have to say, if it was, seemed a very bright lamp, looked pretty cool aswell....but seriously €290 for a headlight

thats the one, but have to say its nearly 5 years old, still functions apart from the contacts being a bit loose but electrical tape fixes that without any major drama, the silva costs 160 odd and lasted me 5 months?

cheers andrew i may be ringing bray in the near future

Will someone put me out of my misery and tell me whats wrong with the tiga. Is it going to fall apart in a fortnight

[AG]

speleo fx5 designed to last . get a titan harness for the battery and away you go and no worries . it does exactly what it says on the tin

[kstaff]

The Silva's don't come in a tin so they must be tougher!

Ahh Silva's! I wear mine around the house It looks so good, and we save a fortune on electricty!

BTW has the original poster Party bought a lamp yet, he started all this!

[partylikeits1969]

just to let ye know, I went for the Silva. Thanks for all the help and advice, in the end there were so many suggestions it nearly came down to an "eenie-mynie-mo" decision.
Silva just seemed to have a bigger following..... and it was the first answer I read

Thanks again,
g'luck
