Ask the flist: What running head torch?
Sep. 11th, 2009 01:08 pmI want to do more running this winter than I did last winter, and that means I'm going to need some illumination -- the gym will kick me out eventually, and I'm rural, and I like running on country roads at night. Right now I've got two head-torches that aren't up to the job: an old camping one with a regular bulb (man, I feel old) and a tiny emergency one that's ace for emergency repairs / tent fun, but doesn't throw enough of a beam to run freely.
So, what do folks recommend? I'm looking to run on and offroad in pitch darkness, so powerful light scores more highly than burn time (this isn't for overnighting). The Petzl Myolite 3 is looking good, so's the CatEye Tora. Any opinions? Any other brands to suggest?
