Torch: safety and good visibility on the go

Are you planning an exciting outdoor trip or trekking tour? If you are travelling at dusk or even want to stay overnight, the right equipment is crucial for comfort and safety. You should definitely have a good torch with you to light your way at night and give you more security.

Torches for outdoor activities are available in numerous variants. In addition to the weight, the reliable light duration also plays a role. At Transa, you can choose from different models, for example the LED torch, torch or flash torch for your next exciting outdoor trip.

Torch: light, practical and long-lasting

The decisive factor for an outdoor torch is its light weight, so that you can easily stow it in your luggage or even in your trouser pocket, as well as good luminosity. But other criteria are also important if you want to buy a torch.

You can recognise good flashlights by the following features:

  • It is compact, handy and light so that you can store it easily.
  • The shape is as ergonomic as possible so that the torch fits comfortably in your hand when you are out and about. The lamp often has a non-slip rubber coating to increase grip.
  • The material (e.g. plastic, aircraft aluminium, ASB plastic, silicone) is very robust and can withstand knocks and falls. It is also rust-proof and waterproof, so you can use the flashlights even in the rain.
  • The brightness and range are adapted to your respective activity so that you can see all paths and your surroundings well even at night.
  • The operation is very simple and can be done with just one hand. Various light functions (e.g. standard, moonlight or flashing light level) increase the range of applications.
  • To prevent the lamp from overheating, thermal regulation is useful.
  • The batteries can be replaced quickly and easily. On most models, the battery compartment can simply be unscrewed. You have the choice between simple batteries or rechargeable versions that you can recharge again and again via cable (e.g. USB).
  • Practical is the suspension via a key ring, carabiners or similar, so that you cannot lose the torch.
  • Some models can be placed on the floor and used as a simple floor lamp.
  • For higher-quality models, anti-roll protection prevents the torch from rolling away if it falls over or slips out of your hand.

Flashlights: suitable for any outdoor activity

A good torch is not only useful when travelling, but can also be essential for survival. In the event of an injury to a group member or if you get lost on your tour and are surprised by cold temperatures outdoors, you can use a bright torch to get help or find the right way back more quickly. A torch is also useful if the electricity fails at the campsite or you need some light in your tent at night. If you are travelling alone and find yourself in an emergency situation, you can also use it to send SOS signals.
