Halfords Advanced Ultra Bright LED Torch

Oddly for a car-focused retailer, Halfords supplies this torch with a mains charger only

Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Price: £39.99

Oddly for a car-focused retailer, Halfords supplies this torch with a mains charger only. It was also the first to fall, some time before the claimed four hours, even though we cycled the lithium batteries several times. Still, it has an excellent beam that penetrates a long way, plus gives a wide, even spread for close work. It also boasts five modes – 100, 50 and 30 per cent power – and two flashing speeds.
