Head Torch sub £50

I'm finding I only get 4 hours at light setting 3 on the throw side rather than the quoted 8 hours.

If the actual (rather than the claimed) output is 350 lumens, then getting 4 hours out of a 3000mWh battery would imply an LED that gave you about 135 lumens/watt, which is about right.

Some useful info:

 
I've got a Sofirn HS20, I really like it apart from the battery life. I'm finding I only get 4 hours at light setting 3 on the throw side rather than the quoted 8 hours.
i use it on the lowest setting which is roughly equivalent to second lowest on a fenix hm70r which is what i always cave on (more than enough light for nearly everything) and I find I get 8-10 hours consistently with that
