Hi,

Anyone know of a decent head mounted light for some night time singletrack?

Had a quick browse but couldnt find anything worthwhile,

cheers,
Matt

There is a uk seller on ebay selling good stuff, search p7,uk sellers,just ordered mine

Yeah, the P7 is unbeatable for the money. You can get a set up for about 30 quid that shames lights that cost 5 times the amount.

thanks

will a light that size easily fit on a helmet? i was thinking more of the miners lamp style,

cheers,
matt

Yea, can get specific helmet mounts, or just use velcro, many do. Is a compact body, and the one I lnked to very well made with the alu casing, sealing and glass optics. Need a charger and cells, but sooooo much light for the price!

Or for a slightly smaller spot type lamp:

Useful info and thanks for the links Supersonic, what run time do you get from the head torch on one battery?
I'm thinking magicshine on bars and the P7 torch on helmet - is there a mount on DX?
