Lads, I'm in the market for a new head torch. Something bright, reliable, comfortable and not silly expensive. Interested to hear your suggestions 
Take a look at the nitecore nu21

I didn't like the Nitecore one, but Gerry always recommended the Sunblesa one off Amazon. Usually over £20, currently £16.99. If I didn't have loads of headtorches, I'd defo have a punt on one of these at this price.

Have the Energizer Vision Ultra Rechargeable LED Head Torch for 5 years now and still very satisfied with it

I have had a few different energizer ones and 2 are my current ones for main and backup, the rechargeable vision and battery vision ultra HD, both excellent.

Wolf VEX150 is good value.
No complaints.
Solidly built.

I'd recommend the Sunblessa as well, even though they're based in China they're customer service is better than a lot of British companies!

Worth doing a forum search, it's been asked a lot. The Sunblessa gets very good reviews as did the Lenser. We have a cheap Energiser its not let us down, but I'm a Petzl user, 2 in 30 years, for fishing and twice a day in winter walking the dogs. Can't stand the thought of back of the head battery packs as I used to sleep with mine on or round my neck, but as always, each to their own

I got the Nebo head torch from screwfix too and its perfect for what you need without the carp tax.
Id never get another battery torch, always rechargeable now.

Nitcore is the best I have owned by a mile.

Tried a few over the years but nitecore nu25 has been my best for performance and how lightweight it is,although now seems to come with a different strap.
Also have the nu30 I use if I need a bit more light, but can't sleep with that on.

By far the best headtorch I have and have used is the led lenser HF6R. I priced matched at go outdoors and got one for £37 and well worth that. The charge lasts ages! Zoomable and wide angled, red led for anti flies at night too.
I have the nitecore . I Love it ! it's rechargeable and last for ages. Also very lightweight.
