Lights: practical equipment guides
This former shopping category is now an informational resource. Compare current options, understand their limitations and practise using the equipment you already own.
- Emergency headlamps: 10 hands-free lights
A headlamp lets you carry a child, read instructions or find a fuse-box label with both hands free. Usable low modes, familiar controls and a realistic charging plan matter more than the biggest lumen number. Keep an independent light as a backup.
- Emergency torches: 10 handheld lights to compare
Keep a straightforward torch where you can reach it in the dark. A hand-cranked light is only useful if it gives enough usable light after realistic effort. Compare these conventional lights for controls, low-mode runtime, charging and safe storage rather than chasing the brightest advertised beam.
