The Petzl e+LITE is an extremely versatile head torch

Petzl’s new eLITE Plus moulds itself to any situation or circumstance. Users of Petzl’s new eLITE Plus can use it as a head torch to help them find their way when there is a power shortage or if they are out camping and need to move at night. For the style conscious, Petzl’s new eLITE Plus does not have to be fastened to your forehead and you can also easily strap it to your shoulder, clothing or equipment. Petzl as an organisation understands that their users find themselves in unexpected situations at different points of time and has therefore designed the new eLITE Plus keeping that in mind.

Review of the Petzl eLITE Plus One of the few pieces of outdoor technology that you can depend upon for years on end, the new eLITE Plus is self-sufficient as well, coming with its own protective carrying case, ensuring that you have one less thing to worry about in the dark. The new eLITE Plus is extremely light and can be used in potentially explosive situations by construction workers and people in the police force and fire department.

The new eLITE Plus can be rotated a complete three hundred and sixty degrees and comes with an automatic lock, so as to prevent the new eLITE Plus from being accidentally switched on, causing battery wastage One of the other features of the eLITE Plus is that it also provides red light which helps with night vision to a great extent. The long range whistle which can be heard up to 500 meters away is an added benefit of investing in a new Elite Plus.

In terms of lighting levels, the new e+LITE Plus comes with two standard lighting levels, the economic (which can be used when the idea is to preserve battery life) or maximum, when a large amount of light is needed. The lighting also comes in two colours, white or red. Red is mostly used as a signalling device by the users of the new e+LITE Plus. In terms of batteries, the new e+LITE Plus operates with two Lithium CR2032 batteries, which are included upon purchase.

Our favourite Petzl head torch… Go buy the Petzl e+LITE!

We consider the Petzl e+LITE to be the head torch on the market for trekking. Not only is it amazingly versatile in its application, it is one of the lightest and smallest headlamps on the market, making it in our opinions the best headlamp for trekking.
