The EverBrite’s COB LED light has a motion sensor function, which allows you to turn it on or off with the swipe of a hand.
It works surprisingly well, although we’re also glad that you can turn the function off as it could be really unhelpful in a garage situation for accidentally turning the torch off… The 350 lumen light can be dimmed, and there’s a red light, too, both of which have strobe settings.
The torch head tilts for better illumination without giving you a crick in your neck, too. It doesn’t throw its beam as far as some others, and it doesn’t last as long, but as a comfortable yet useful head torch for everyday use, and at a very low price, it’s not bad at all.

Aplos H330 LED Headlamp
Run time: 5.5 hours
The Aplos is a three-phase dimmable LED torch, and also has various strobe and flash modes. It’s similar to the Sofirn in design, with a removable, cylindrical, metal-bodied torch that can be rotated in the single strap.
The Aplos also feels durable and hefty thanks to its metal body, if not as hefty and well-built as the Sofirn. Even so, with 1600 Lumen, this is one of the brightest lights we tested, and it’s a neat touch that the on-switch glows red when the battery gets low.
Our main issue is that the narrow strap doesn’t keep the torch all that stable when you’re moving around, and the run time isn’t great.

Kingtop Zoomable head torch
Run time: 18 hours
The Kingtop comes with a storage pouch, which is a nice touch for keeping it tidy in that random drawer full of gubbins in the garage. It also gets a strap that goes over, as well as around your head, and a row of small LEDs lets you know how much battery power is left.
