Dimmable torches
I've seen many posts about the latest, greatest, brightest torches - and some of them are really powerful - but many times you only need a dim light on the path in front of you, just enough to see where you're walking, not bright enough to spook every rabbit for 3 miles and attract attention from every busybody in the neighbourhood.
I have a dimmable LED lantern which almost fits the bill, it can be turned down quite low, but loses points because it cannot be turned up into a bright beam on demand, and secondly it required card taped around it to stop it shining out in directions it's not needed. Like all LEDs, when turned down past a certain point it abruptly switches off, so a torch with both low and high power capabilities will probably have at least two different types of LEDs.
Has anyone seem something suitable ?
