Really good head torches these, I have a few I use for fishing.
Will be handy for walking dogs etc now that we are approaching the clocks going back. The batteries included with this normally cost more than £5.69.
Price shows as £10.99 however if you click the promotion message next to it, will take it down to £5.69 with Prime Delivery.

Sorry mate, this isn't the forum for safety first messages. We only want cheap as chips and if there's a risk of your headtorch exploding when you are wearing it we'll all be doing the 'can we return it, get a refund and a £5 Amazon voucher".

Lithium Ion rechargeable batteries can be very volatile and need to be treated with respect in term of charging, storage and use. I'd strongly recommend that if someone needs to use these batteries that you read the following link:
Furthermore, I'd strongly recommend that people don't spend 99p on a product that has a greater risk of explosion or catastrophic fire, instead spend at least a few quid per cell from a reputable supplier.
These aren't like the AA's you buy from Asda - they need proper care.

A workmate has this same one and it is good value and quality.
He paid around about a tenner 12 months ago.
The batteries alone are about a quid each.

Where about have you seen the 18650 batters for a quid? I could do with some spare but never seen them that low.

Here is the first one listed on fleaBay ( Edited because the link did not work ).
Copy and paste this instead in the search box
18650 3.7V 5000mAh Li-ion Rechargeable Li-ion Battery for Led Flashlight GU
listed at 99p.
It is of similar quality to the ones you will get from any far eastern deal like the one listed.

Must be doing something wrong - I can't get it down to £5.69 even though it says promotion applied. Any ideas?
