Product Description

The E+Lite has been designed primerily as an emergency or back-up lighting system that can be used as a headtorch or clipped to equipment and clothing, either to see or be seen. It's powered by two CR2032 Lithium coin cells with a shelf life of up to 10 years.

The Petzl e + LITE is actually marketed as a emergency lamp. But it’s compact design and versatility make it great for travelers. The two features I love about the e+LITE are the strap and the swivel.

The e+Lite isn’t on your typical, larger, elastic strap. Its on a thinner piece of elastic that can be easily adjusted with a clip in the back. You can wear it as a necklace ( yes, it’s fashionable too ) or around your wrist.

The swivel that the actual lamp sits on allows you a full 360 degrees of motion. No longer will you have to tilt your head just right to be able to read in your tent.

It is very useful and the big preference is that it is so small. You can forget on an old large lamps. I propose it.
