Do any of you guys use rechargeable batteries in things like head torches etc?
Are they any good?
If they are what brands to go for?
 
I use rechargeable batteries in my pocket torch and head torch but they are spechial lithium ion batteries like the ones grouped together inside drill batteries. They are expensive as is a good charger abd tge torches but they are mental bright and the batteries last way longer tgan disposables would in the same torches and I dont have to keep buying them.
The batteries are called 18650's I bought the below head torch 4 18650's and a fenix pocket torch that takes tge same from the below website.

I use led lensor p7.2. And Duracell high cap batts. Keep a charged set in van so never an issue
 
I just bought a pack of 11 from the poundshop still on my first 3 in my head torch. I also have a cheap wind up torch as well it's a bit bulky but works a treat.
 
I've used the eneloop and that technoline charger for about a year. Both been very good so far.
