Handheld Torches

We stock a wide range of outdoor and camping supplies including flashlights, from camping flashlights and handheld torches to ultralight backpacking flashlights. With rechargeable torch and LED options, we have you covered for every adventure and emergency.

Choosing the right torch for your needs means considering brightness, beam distance, and battery type. Rechargeable torch models are especially convenient for frequent use, saving you money and reducing waste. Many of our torches are water-resistant and offer multiple lighting modes, making them ideal for camping, hiking, or any outdoor lighting requirement. Specialist brands like Lifesystems and Nebo produce robust and reliable torches that can be used in a variety of situations. Browse our selection to find the perfect torch for your next outing.

Consider these factors:

 

  • Brightness (Lumens): Choose lumens based on your needs (e.g., 300-600 lumens for hiking, 1,000+ for search and rescue).
  • Battery Type: Rechargeable batteries are cost-effective and eco-friendly.
  • Durability: Look for water-resistant and impact-resistant designs.
  • Size and Weight: Compact models are better for portability.
  • Beam Distance: Ensure it matches your activity (e.g., longer distances for outdoor use).

For general use, 200-600 lumens is sufficient. For outdoor activities like hiking or camping, 500-1,000 lumens is ideal. Higher outputs (1,000+ lumens) are best for technical tasks like search and rescue.

You can upgrade components such as:

 

  • Battery: Use high-quality rechargeable lithium-ion batteries like 18650s.
  • LED Bulb: Replace with a higher-output LED if compatible.
  • Wiring: Improve conductivity by upgrading wires or performing a spring bypass to reduce resistance.

For most activities, 300-1,000 lumens is sufficient. Over 1,000 lumens is useful for specialised tasks but drains the battery faster. For everyday use, lower settings (150-300 lumens) may suffice.
