There is a huge design flaw with this torch, the charging port is only held in place by the solder connection. Mine came right off the pcb just from unplugging it, got a replacement and same thing happened again. It's a shame because it's a great torch just really bad design to have the charging port not reinforced in any way at all, it's just attached to the pcb so you're putting stress on the solder connection every time you unplug it. If you use it every day like I did, it won't last long.

@ThePaulv129 ай бұрын
I might buy one of these eRodgenous as I need another head torch. The price vs features is very reasonable. I can say the gesture on/off could be handy in my line of work. If you say it's good then that's good enough for me! As I've probably mentioned before I'm in the blood collection business. The other night I left my $400 Led Lenser (LL) head torch at home, realized on the road, panicked and called into Bunnings (in a B-Double at 10 to 9) to get another head torch. I paid $178 as when you need a head torch in my line of work you really need it and it must not fail, meaning I don't have time for budget gear. The new torch is another LL and is excellent, however it is so good for fixing cars I've found (I'm a mechanic in a former life turned truckie) that it has a feature I can't ever do without when mechanic-ing and that is it doesn't have a battery pack on the back meaning you can put your head on the ground and turn it to pick up spanners etc and not be impeded by a battery pack. The other thing it has is a focus ring that hardly needs turning from spot to wide angle. Anyway, I'm thinking I'll buy one of these for trucking since the battery pack is a complete non issue at work, keep the new one for my cars and keep the $400 one for everything else. I live off grid so reliable head torches are a big part self sufficiency at home. At work I'm basically a vampire it's all night work - must get home before dawn otherwise I'll turn to dust....

What's the battery life like? Looks like it's a standard 18650 in the battery pack. Can you drop in a new battery when it's flat or do you lose the use of the torch while it's charging?
