Question - Head torch - Petzl Tikka XP

[Cramrawr]

I am currently using a Petzl Tikka XP head torch. Has anyone else used this torch, if so could you tell me if you think it is suitable or are there any others you would recommend?

It's OK. I use an XP2 and a Taktikka with no problems.

I have used these, well sort of, I need to get it back from the_126

They are ok, but there is much better stuff on the market for similar or less money as it goes

I like petzl stuff as it's generally waterproof to an extent and holds out well in sewers, rivers and caves which I do a lot of

For general derping about I guess most run of mill headtorches that offer over 40 lumens will suffice

I had one, I didn't like to colour, found it gave a very blue light.
I now use Lenser.....

I bought a lenser a few months back. Plastic shite that lasted less than an hour, seriously.

For dry stuff I use a cree LED head torch with about 1200 Lumens

For wet stuff (above and below water) I use dive torched ranging from 250 lumen upto 3,000 lumen ranging from £10 to £600.
