doesnt have to be super powerful, it's just for son to take on a halloween forest walk
Cree XML -T6 - blind people to giving him treats.
I picked up a £30 torch from Maplin. Bright, robust, 2 - 3 hr burn time and works okay as a head torch.
looking to mail order with fast delivery - any links?
The alpkit headtorches are ace, got 2 of them for camping and they're really bright and batteries seem to last a while.

It'll be Fine, loads of light and usable on the bars of your bike if you do night riding..
Though I've no idea what focus it will be with that reflector, most of the DX type torch I've bought have a 'head' not much bigger than main body & the output has been fine.
PS: Note it says no battery included..
Have you seen Stoners thread? (though do note the delivery time on the one he links to. Other similar torchs will be available with a shorter delivery time)

Cheers, hadn't noticed it didn't come with a battery, plus I need it for this wkd so stoners is a no go. Might just bob to local shop for a nosey too
M6TTF - i bought that for helmet use and on the bars on the road bike
Very bright but eats batteries - research your batteries before buying in the thread above and on the torchy the battery guy site.
+1 Alpkit Gamma LED. Brilliant. Literally. I'm about to buy one for night riding helmet mounted duties.
Another vote for the Alpkit Gamma. So useful with its various modes. V quick delivery as well.
