Tools: Torches & Lighting

Start with where the light will be used. A focused torch or spotlight can help illuminate distant points during a patrol, while a wider beam suits close work and workshop areas. A headlamp leaves your hands free, but check that its strap and position are compatible with any required head protection. Compare brightness settings, beam pattern and the stated runtime at the setting you expect to use.

Check charging arrangements, battery type and the product's stated resistance to water and dust. For solar lights, consider placement and access to sunlight rather than assuming every location will provide sufficient charging. UV lights have specialist uses and should be selected and handled according to the manufacturer's instructions. Position work lights to reduce glare and shadows, keeping cables clear of walkways.
