Is this the Tesco torch I found on their website?

It calls it a 1w LED torch, but in the features refers to a 3w CREE LED

2 one watt tesco torches, this is a 5 watt upgrade
Rewinding the clock back a year!
The Tesco torches I refer to are 3W AA jobs. They cost £8 in my local Tesco at the moment. They have never been on the Tesco website for some strange reason. There were loads of threads about them on the pre hack forum. Loads of people here modded them to make helmet and bar lights. Given the beam shots I've seen above I will not be wasting cash modding my Maglite.
that beamshot is of an earlier version, look at the video for refrence
I have a torch from Deal Extreme that was $18 uses two AAs and is better than the 3W Tesco one. Can get the name later if anyone is interested, 230lumens claimed output.
Hey Spock, you appear to be getting irrational and not using logic.
Where does the earlier version come in? The video shows the brightest to be a 3W LED not the 5W you refer to earlier in the thread. The video does not do a side by side comparison with a Tesco torch so why re reference it? If, as you say, they have upgraded the version that steelfan shows to the 3W that is shown in the video, then I reckon that makes them both 3W and comparable. If that is the case then £16 gets you 2 complete torches. No brainer.
Just bought some of these for mounting my ay-up batteries on helmet and bike as I found the velcro a bit of a faff. Could also be used for a maglite helmet mount instead of cable ties. Great name and also a good product.
This the item title bought from ebay same as the first link.
