Summer fun: The Gorillatorch Switchback
Intrepid adventurers on the hunt for a compact, multi-faceted light should check out Joby’s latest offering, the Gorillatorch Switchback. This combination lantern-headlamp comes with five powerful LEDs, including a 130-lumen spotlight. Featuring six brightness settings and an adjustable dimmer switch, it supplies the right amount of illumination for any outdoors occasion.
As a lantern, it’s capable of illuminating an 8-person family tent or small cabin. A flexible stand allows it be hooked inside a tent, placed on a table or attached to a nearby tree branch (it can also be used as a camera tripod).
The Switchback comes with two additional white LEDs for floodlighting and two red LEDs for night vision. Two AA batteries provide up to 72 hours of light. Price: about R600. Available from selected Cape Union Mart stores. Call 0860 034 000 or visit www. capeunionmart.co.za
