The Boruit Rechargeable LED, Waterproof Head Torch Light with 4 Modes, 5000 lumens Headlamp.

Firstly we have to start with a bit of a confession, at Tools Review UK we have a bit of an obsession with torches. Torches are a must have, notice we said plural. One can not simply have one torch in their life. There are torches for occasions – whether you are completing DIY around the home, walking the dogs, putting out bins, chopping wood, pretty much anything when the light is less than perfect….you are going to need a torch for the job!

Personally, we think the best answer to your problems is a headtorch. Why walk around carrying your torch when you can free up both of your hands and have the torch on your head. They also allow for much better viability as they will move in the direction that you are looking!

Why To Buy

• 5000 lumens
• 3 different colours to choose from
• 4 different modes for the lights
• Adjustable straps
• Waterproof
• USB charging

Firstly, the reason we really like this head torch is that it is waterproof. Although you aren’t going to be able to go swimming with it, it will definitely be able to withstand heavy rain and storms if you have to be out in this weather – which is great for those winter months when nights are darker.

The Boruit 5000 lumens head torch gives you the option to have sufficient light from it’s main headlamp, conserving battery life whilst still giving you a great amount of light for most jobs. This can then be changed should you need more power, simply crank it up and the additional two lights kick in providing a fantastic 5000 lumens of light. It is just worth bearing in mind that the battery won’t last as long in these settings but it is perfect for in pitch black conditions.

This head torch comes with rechargeable batteries and a USB charger, this can be charged through your computer, car or by simply plugging into the mains through an adapter such as this dual USB charger. The batteries whilst do the job with this torch aren’t the best, their lifespan isn’t fantastic or charge span. Which is a shame as it isn’t a negative of the torch at all just cheap batteries. We would recommend putting your own in to get the best out of this torch – then you will be assured of multiple hours of run time before you need to recharge the torch.

We also found this head torch really comfortable to wear. Some head torches that we have tried are clumpy and the straps dig in. Thanks to the Boruit model coming with adjustable straps and comfortable elastic, you can wear this head torch for ages without thinking about it! You also know that it will stretch over hats/helmets if needed – then shrink back down to size again for your head!

The price range

We have looked at several head torches in the past, you can pick some up for a couple of pound. We have reviewed one of the budget models in our Fathers Day 20 ideas for under £20 post. This model from Boruit sits around the £15 mark and is a great entry level piece. You can spend upwards of £100 on some of the more expensive models such as the LEDLenser H14R.2. But for use around the home, walking the dog or the occasional camping trip this Boruit 5000 lumens bad boy is perfect!
