Petzl Noctilight

Bought a Petzl Swift SL recently and added one of these to the basket to go with. Wasn't expecting it to do what it said on the tin (beyond just being a storage case) but actually, what a brilliant idea. A head torch storage case that can turn said torch into a "lantern". Sounds daft but it really does work. It's a very well thought out design. It has enough room in it for the torch, attached headband, supplied soft bag and USB cable (well... I've managed to squish them all in there) and it can be operated easily enough through the pliable sides. Once it's all zipped up inside, it's a really neat handy palm sized light source which you can hang up. The resulting dispersed / diffused light is really impressive. Highly recommended.

Bought it earlier on in the year, put my head torch in it (a Biolite, not a Petzl but it fitted just fine), then the camping trip got cancelled and there the two sat unused; that was until we had a power cut two nights ago.WOW, is this little gadget good. Bright, but doesn't catch your eye, sat on the mantle piece and seemed to light up the whole room. Yes, I know that wasn't it's intended use, but hanging inside a tent this 'lamp' is going to dammed efficient.

Brilliant bit of kit to keep your headtorch safe, but it doubles up as a hanging light once headtorch is inside, it has a hook to attach to a tent pole or hang up somewhere you need extra light.Very hardwearing case . Worth every penny.

This is a great addition to the headtorch range. It provides just the right low level of light for my kids to use as a night light when camping or staying away but also can provide plenty of light for reading or general use. We use this whenever we go away from home and it stays on overnight on its low setting and we are still on the original set of batteries. The packing/instructions for the Tikka lamp do tell you how many hours you get from use at a low setting, although I don't have this to hand now. We'd certainly recommend it if you have the right light to fit.

I had been waiting for this to come down to an acceptable price I’d pay for turning my Petz head lamp into a lantern. It fit my head lamp, including strap quite easily with extra room to spare which meant that I had to make an extra effort to activate the lamp from the outside. The zip looks weather sealed but have yet to test the water resistance of it. When on it does give a nice spread of light and even has a hook to hang the lamp from your tent.

Dose what it need to and lightweight

Fits both my Petzl and Black Diamond headlamps.

This simple little accessory turns your head torch in to a lantern that can be hung up or sat flat on a surface to create a little light. it's plastic and the light clicks securely in place and you can fold your headband into the base so no need to remove it. There is even enough space to carry a spare battery (which you will need by the way especially if you use the torch on full brightness for any period of time). Great for camping or incase you have had enough of wearing the head torch.
