    Bought one six weeks ago and have yet to charge it, great beam of light but IMO it's too narrow. It's light (no pun intended) so you hardly know it's strapped to you head but can be hard to turn on and off if you're wearing gloves.

    Good torch but the jury is still out on whether it's worth north of €40....

    Have two head torches ( both using 3 A batteries )
    Main thing is get a decent on /off switch as both of mine are crap . Wud need delicate fingers to use the switch .
    Cheetah as we know are rechargeable .( Think made in Ireland & might be able to repair etc )

    I think people here are getting carried away with the on off switch argument...with regards to the price...go get an electrician hook up a dark part of a yard and see the cost. I agree with poster who said he never recharged it since he bought it...plus you get a car cigarette charger with it which i charge on the way home from work.

    Ps I am in no way connected with Cheetah.
