Head Torches to Run Hike Climb and Camp
Embrace the darkness. From running in the early hours to late night riding. Our lightweight head torches pack a punch in bright light, are easy to use, comfortable to wear and with a long battery life. Designed for running, mountaineering, climbing, hiking, paddling, and other outdoor activities where a strong beam, comfort, minimal weight and water resistance are priorities.

Camping Lights and Mobile Charging Stations
Camping Lights give 360 degree illumination designed for bikepacking and camping in beautiful spots but equally handy whether caught in a power-cut or your car’s broken down at night. The Lampray, a bright camping lantern and mobile power unit that can recharge an iphone and Bob, a waterproof 200 lumen LED camping lantern that floats, great for those late night dips.
