Here we have three types of good quality head torch for camping, backpacking, hiking, etc. But what are the main differences, and why would you choose one over another? Well, it may simply come down to personal preferences, so we will list the differences below in order for you to compare them with each other.
NOTE: Our X1 head torches (NOT X2) are available in BLACK, RED or BLUE. Please leave a note on check out or message us if you prefer a particular colour, otherwise you will be sent a Black X1.

STATION13 X1 & X2 Head Torches
NOT ALL HEAD TORCHES ARE CREATED EQUAL
Note: Our X2 Head Torch differs from our X1 Head Torch in having separate white and red LED lenses which provide a slightly longer light throw at the expense of wider area of light coverage. The X1 is a higher power unit so will provide a greater overall total light output over our X2 at maximum setting. If you prefer a wider floodlit area, then our X1 Head Torch will likely suit you better. If however you would prefer potentially slightly longer running times and a slightly longer light throw, then our X2 will probably be the better option. Both are feature-packed quality head torches.

The X1 and X2 are our new high performance, very high quality, rechargeable LED head torches. Compact, versatile, powerful, and full of features.
X1 & X2 KEY FEATURES:
Aimed primarily at campers, backpackers and hikers, these powerful head torches can of course also be used in multiple situations requiring a powerful portable hands-free light source. Great as a portable emergency light source for both outdoor and indoor use - DIY applications, car repairs, etc.
However, one reason the X1 and X2 will be of great use to campers, backpackers and hikers in particular is the multiple lighting functions provided by these units.
Along with powerful white LEDs with multiple brightness settings, a strobe, distress beacon (and SOS feature on the X1), there are lower power red LEDs for maintaining your night vision and/or relaxing around the campfire at night without blinding any companions. Of course the Distress Beacon and SOS modes on these head torches can also provide potentially life-saving signals.
These head torches clip onto the headband bracket and can very easily be angled to suit individual needs at the time. A single push-button at one end of both the X1 and X2 aluminium tube body provides access to every lighting option. The torches can also be removed from the head band altogether and used in the hand if required.
On maximum power the white LEDs of the X1 can provide a genuine 800 lumens (1000 lumens in TURBO Mode), the X2 440 lumens (560 lumens in TURBO Mode). These are very bright for relatively compact, multi-function head torches. Unlike the X2 (and also the RayFall head torches that we also supply), which give a more focused spot beam, our X1s provide a wide unfocussed floodlight for a wider spatial visibility.
Both the X1 and X2 without battery weigh in at just 44g (90g with battery, 112g with battery and head strap). Length is 86mm by 35mm deep at the centre, dropping to a diameter of 25mm at the ends. Made from durable, strong and highly corrosion resistant 6063 aluminium, these head torches are also anodised and fully waterproof to IP66/IP65.
Both head torches incorporate high quality, high power 18650 rechargeable lithium-ion batteries which are good for 500+ charges and discharges.
Charging is carried out via an included USB to mini USB Type-C cable. The 18650 rechargeable battery is replaceable if ever necessary, but can also be removed for use in a suitable third party standalone fast charger, though in most cases simply charging via the built-in mini USB port will be quite adequate and more convenient.
Our X1s and X2s are of a very high build quality. They feature multiple lighting modes, and also have sophisticated built-in electronics, that includes over-charge, over discharge, over-heat and short circuit protection. As such our head torches should not be confused with the many similar cheaply made and inferior head torches on the market. Many budget torches (head torches and hand torches) are supplied with very inferior, very cheap (sometimes dangerously cheap) 18650 batteries that blatantly underperform, or indeed are fake branded - we have sourced only genuine 18650 batteries for our X1s. The powerful 2500mAh 18650 battery we employ in our X1 can provide maximum brightness LED power for around 2.3 hours. Lowering the brightness will extend this runtime considerably, and bear in mind that full power (800 lumens) is extremely bright and unlikely to be needed in most situations, or for long periods. There is also the option of an upgrade to a 3500mAh battery which will increase run times considerably.
X1 Approximate Run Times (burn times) with Standard 2500mAh Rechargeable Battery:
Full Power: 800 lumens – 2.3 hours
Mid/High Power: 472 lumens - 3.5 hours
Mid Power: 222 lumens - 7.5 hours
Mid/Low Power: 100 lumens - 15 hours
Low Power: 40 Lumens - 35 hours
Signal Beacon: 800 lumens - 2.5 hours
Strobe: 800 lumens - 2.5 hours
SOS: 800 lumens - 4 hours
Red LEDs: 4 - 22 hours
TURBO: 1000 lumens - 1.5 hours (very high battery drain - recommended intermittent use only)
X2 Approximate Run Times (burn times) with Standard 2000mAh Rechargeable Battery:
Full Power: 440 lumens - 3.5 hours
Mid Power: 209 lumens - 8 hours
Low Power: 36 lumens - 35 hours
Signal Beacon: 440 lumens - 4 hours
Strobe: 440 lumens - 4 hours
Red LEDs: 21-90 lumens - 12 - 35 hours
Moonlight Mode: 4 lumens - 50+ hours
TURBO Mode: 560 lumens - 3 hours
Note: Both our X1 and X2 Head Torches are available with a battery upgrade to a high capacity 3500mAh Li-ion battery as an option. This much larger capacity battery adds considerable run times to those shown above.
Our head torches are supplied with their batteries in a storage charge state. To fully charge the battery, and indeed to recharge once discharged, the X1 and X2 can be charged via the mini USB (Type-C) to USB cable included. Access to the mini USB charging port is gained by partway unscrewing the knurled cap on the on/off push-button end. The push-button on the end of the unit will light up red initially while charging, going to green when the battery is fully charged. As stated, these head torches have protection circuitry built-in to prevent over-charging, over-discharging, over-heating and short circuits.
Admittedly head torches may be a little more expensive than many other similar looking items, but when other head torches are selling for just the price of a decent 18650 battery, clearly something has to give, corners have to be cut, and initial looks can be deceiving... and often it's what you can't see that makes all the difference.
We much prefer our items to exude quality, offer reliability and provide performance… this may come at a slightly higher cost, but, as the saying goes, ‘You get what you pay for’. There are an awful lot of inferior, poor quality items on the market dressed up to be something they are not.

Rayfall HP3A CREE XP-E R3 LED Head Torch - 160 Lumens
Super-bright, multi-mode compact LED head torch
Note: Although only the White RayFall HP3A head torch is listed, we may also have Orange, Blue or Green available. If a colour other than white is desired, just contact us beforehand so we can check availability and we can modify your order accordingly when placed.
Features:
For those people that prefer disposable batteries as opposed to a rechargeable unit, then our Rayfall HP3A LED Head Torches may be the answer. They are super-high brightness, incredibly versatile and feature-packed. These head torches can be used for cycling, climbing, hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, car maintenance, at work and around the home, and also make for a great emergency light that leaves your hands free. Please note, for jogging or running we would strongly recommend our smaller and even more compact HP1A Head Torch (available from our eBay shop). Click: HP1A Head Torch
Rayfall HP3A LED Head Torches offer great value for money, providing a specification and performance equal to (if not better) than many far more expensive, leading brand name LED head torches. DO NOT mistake Rayfall Head Torches for low cost, low specification, poorly made budget LED head torches that have flooded the market, and falsely claim ridiculously high lumens - often in the many thousands! Rayfall LED Head Torches are high quality, high specification, high performance units manufactured to a very high standard.
These head torches feature the super-bright CREE XP-E R3 LED technology, making them amongst the most powerful compact head torches on the market!
A feature of Rayfall HP3A LED Head Torches that is usually only found on much more expensive head torches is the incorporation of regulated, constant current electronics. What this means is that, unlike low cost LED head torches whereby the light output continually diminishes as the battery energy is used up, the clever little electronics inside a Rayfall Cree LED Head Torch works to maintain the current to operate the LEDs at high brightness even as the battery voltage drops. This provides a light output that is fairly constant throughout the lifetime of the batteries, with the light output only starting to drop when the batteries are very near the end of their life.
Another feature of the Rayfall LED Head Torch is that, unlike most compact LED head torches, Rayfall Head Torches have two switches, one for the main white LED and one for the twin red LEDs. This means that you do not have to toggle through the white LED modes to reach the red LED function. Switching red LEDs button while the white LED is on automatically extinguishes the white LED, and vice versa
The white LED is a high light output CREE XP-E R3 LED and features 4 modes: High, Medium, Low and SOS Flashing mode. The red LEDs have two modes, one ON mode and a flashing mode. Note: the white LED SOS mode is a true EMERGENCY 'SOS' SIGNAL, providing a continuous sequence of 3 dots, 3 dashes and 3 dots in a repetitive cycle. The red LEDs do not have the range of the white LED, but allows you to see at night in close proximity without affecting your night vision. Great for reading at night or sitting around a camp fire when you don’t want to blind your companions.
Weighing in at just 86 grams (52 grams without batteries) this is a compact but powerful and very versatile lightweight head torch. The Rayfall Head Torch also features a useful tilt facility and is waterproof to IPX6 standard.
Unlike some low cost head torches which can be quite large and cumbersome, and hence are prone to bobbing about on your head or slipping with movement, these compact and lightweight Rayfall Head Torches sit nicely and firmly. And in comparison to some super-expensive high-end head torches, there are no bulky battery packs and cabling to contend with.
- Super-Bright Cree XP-E R3 Cool White LED
- 2 x High Brightness Red LEDs
