Flashlights: safety and good visibility on the go

Are you planning an exciting outdoor trip or trekking tour? If you are out and about 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 keep you safer.

There are numerous variants of flashlights for outdoor activities. In addition to the weight, the reliable light duration also plays a role. At Transa, you can choose from different models, such as LED torches, flashlights or flash torches for your next exciting outdoor trip.

Torch: light, practical and durable

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 when buying a torch.

You can recognize good flashlights by the following features:

  • It's compact, handy and light, so you can store it easily.
  • The shape is as ergonomic as possible so that the torch lies 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 aluminum, ASB plastic, silicone) is very robust and can withstand bumps and falls. It is also rust-proof and waterproof, so you can use the torch even in the rain.
  • The brightness and range are adapted to your respective activity so that you can see all paths and your surroundings clearly, even at night.
  • It is very easy to use and can be operated with just one hand. Various light functions (e.g. standard, moonlight or flashing light level) increase the range of use.
  • Thermal regulation is useful to prevent the lamp from overheating.
  • 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 battery versions that you can recharge again and again via cable (e.g. USB).
  • It is practical to attach the torch using a key ring, carabiners or similar so that you cannot lose it.
  • Some models can be placed on the floor and used as a simple floor lamp.
  • With higher-quality models, an 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 you're out and about, it 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 cold temperatures surprise you outdoors, you can use a bright torch to get help or find your way back faster. A torch is also useful if the electricity goes out at the campsite or you need some light in your tent at night. If you are traveling alone and find yourself in an emergency situation, you can also use it to send SOS signals.
