FlashTorch

The Times OnLine have published a review of the Led Lenser Police Tech Focus, Inova 24/7, Princeton Tec Genesis, Mag-lite 2D 3W Led, Ring Cyba-lite N16 Xenon and the Gerber Omnivore flashlights. 'All our torches claimed to be at least water resistant, so we gave them a 30-second shower to simulate a heavy downpour - the sort of conditions in which you'll inevitably have to change a flat tyre. In addition, we dropped them from a height of 3ft onto a hard floor to see how they stood up to some typical rough and tumble. All shone through, which meant we could then evaluate their beam performance, build quality and availability of accessories, such as a pouch and belt clip.'
