NewDirection
🔦 MAIN FEATURES
Our third option might not be the brightest head torch on the list, but it offers a variety of useful features that earned NewDirection a respectable third place. 200 lumens are as bright as NewDirection can go, so even though it’s not the brightest option, it’s still suitable for various outdoor activities such as camping or fishing. What we liked about this head torch is the color options. You will have white light for general use, red for better night vision, and UV for backlight. In the package you will also find a lamp cover which distributes the light. Additionally, the frame of this head torch has extra magnetic details, so it can be easily attached to metal surfaces, making it a highly versatile option.
DESIGN AND USE
This NewDirection head torch is a compact and lightweight camping device that features an adjustable stretchy headband for your convenience. It has two buttons, one for turning the device on and off and the other one for switching between modes. With NewDirection, you can also control the direction of the light as it has adjustable angle mount. The light beam can also be adjusted to be wider or more focused. This NewDirection product is rechargeable which saves you the cost of replacing batteries and allows you to charge your device as you go. One minor drawback would be low waterproof rating (just IPX5), meaning that it can withstand some accidental splashes of water but should not be submerged as it may permanently damage the device.
VALUE
Even though this NewDirection may not be the brightest item on this list, its affordable price and a variety of useful features make it a strong competitor in the market. With 200 lumens you can still do a lot of outdoor activities, so if you feel like that would be enough and you’re excited about NewDirection’s extra features, then it’s definitely worth a shot.
