    Always important to listen to a bearded bloke (pref red hair) with a Rab coat on.

    Great video, but how do you know for sure the amount of genuine lumens you are getting ? How can you test if the light you bought is 1000 lumens as it says on the box or only chucking out a max of 850 ? In 2019 I bought an olight batten hand held at 1200 lumens , last year i bought victoper from Amazon , dual 18650 head torch at £20. The brightness I got was probably around 5O% more then the olight , even thou it sold as 6000 lumens. Im now looking for a good quality head torch for about £50-£70 with a decent amount of light for walking the dogs in the woods at night . Maybe 2000-4000 lumens? Im still unsure if i should buy a Wurkkus or sofirn or save to buy something better .
