    Please don't blame me for the demise of the High Street shopping experience ...

    BTW, no need to wear your bee suit when you check them for strength in Boots ... though you'll not be pestered by sales assistants if you do
    Sorry Fatshark I misunderstood you. I was meaning something more like this .....

    Ah ha! … for headtorches I've usually chosen the Energizer ones like this. They're adjustable, comfortable, have low/high beam (or something like that) and the red LEDs are useful for using when you put queen cells into primed mini-nucs. I've tried (on, but never used) the ones with in built magnification and always found them uncomfortable - in this instance two 'tools' are better than one combined.
