A standard 27″ racquet’s mid point is at 13.5″, so if that frame is 8 points HL, the balance point will be 12.5″ from the end of the grip. If the same 27″ racquet is 4 points head-heavy, its balance point will be 14.0″ from the bottom of the grip. I get fantastic support as a user. The system is very user-friendly and intuitive, and has a huge capability. Each head torch was dropped several times from head height onto a hard surface to see how well they would stand up to some accidental punishment.

The reason here is two fold, most pros are playing with short, fast swings and need their racquet to be easy to swing in fast paced rallies and up at the net. We set each head torch to its brightest setting and compared how brightly it illuminated a specific spot at set distances of 5m, 10m, 25m, 50m, and 75m. A compatible power bank is a must-have to keep your rechargeable head torch and other devices charged when you’re far from the comforts of electrical outlets. Fitted with patent-pending technology, our HF Series head torches come with Adaptive Light Beam Technology, automatically dimming and focusing the light beam to illuminate your surroundings. All you need to do is turn your head torch on and then your hands are free to do whatever you need.With head light racquets, the weight of the racquet is greater toward the handle and this helps make the racquet more manoeuvrable. The balance of a racquet relates to how weight is distributed throughout the frame and where that weight is located. Most lights are easy to secure firmly in place to a helmet. However, ensure you don’t tighten them too much and compromise the integrity of the helmet’s protection. Their technique and racquet head speed mean they have no issue generating power so it makes little sense to wield something that is head heavy and produces more power than needed.

We charged up each head torch fully then switched them onto their brightest settings to time how long they lasted before they either ran out of battery entirely, or had significantly reduced brightness. We used fresh batteries for non-rechargeable head torches.

Just a few of our happy customers

And it’s not just the torches that we’ve created with sustainability in mind. Many power banks are sold cheaply and come with internal lithium batteries, which are never replaced and often end up in a landfill. That’s why all of our FLEX Portable Power Banks are powered by lithium-ion batteries, which can be easily replaced to extend the lifespan of the power bank. No matter the environment, with a Ledlenser torch you’re guaranteed to feel empowered and ready to face whatever may come your way. The data coming out now suggests the prevalence of covid 19 is far more widespread than first thought, and that a high % of infections are completely asymptomatic. So the real mortality rate is going to be far lower than estimated. Working with the Head Light provided us with a fresh pair of eyes to our project and critical challenge when we needed it.

Mountain bike lights are all about lumens; the more, the merrier. This applies to helmet lights as well as handlebar lights. In general, head heavy racquets have a lower static weight than a head light frame. At first glance, this often sounds like a good thing, you can get a lighter racquet that offers more power than a heavier, head light frame.

While there are some pros that are using close to even balance frames, the vast majority use head light balances and I think that has to tell you something.

So if no pros are using them who are head heavy racquets for? In my opinion, not many players are going to be well suited to head heavy frames. In addition, a whiter (or cooler) light will appear brighter for a given lumen and help add more contrast to features in the distance.

Planning your next hike in the great outdoors and need to light your way forward? Maybe you’re off to a festival and looking for some quality camping essentials. Or perhaps you’re working in a critical, low-light environment where you need to ensure the safety of everyone around you. Our premium, lightweight head torches offer maximum comfort, extraordinary quality, and powerful beams to keep you safe in the dark. Finally, even balance. Anything under 4 PTS HL fits into the more even balance category of frame. Racquet We also wore Cambridge gloves to see if any of the head torches might prove particularly challenging for users with limited hand movement, but found that none of them stood out as being extra difficult.
