Top Lighting Solutions for Dog Owners

 

With the summer solstice having come and gone, the nights will begin to become darker as summer progresses. As the dark nights begin to close in, dog owners will want to find ways of illuminating their walks at night. This is especially the case amongst dog walkers in rural areas.

 

Since some may consider it impractical to carry a torch, a dog lead, and doggie bags in your hands at once, we found a number of lighting solutions for your dog-walking expeditions when the sun goes down.

Pocket Torch Power

Created by torch manufacturers Active Products, the AP ProSeries range uses CREE light technology, to produce torches that are powerful, long-lasting and energy-efficient.

 

Within the range is the 75 Lumens torch, which boasts an effective beam despite its small size, while the torch itself can fit in your coat pocket comfortably with ease.

 

If you only walk in a partially lit area, and only need to see in the darker stretches of your journey, this is a particularly useful torch to have to hand.

  

In The Spotlight

If you are looking for a larger torch with a beam that spans a greater reach, then the AP ProSeries 220 lumens spotlight may well be for you. Able to beam distances the length of a football pitch, this torch is ideal for those of you who walk your dog in more expansive, sparsely lit areas.

 

The spotlight is available in a rechargeable version too, with this model allowing you to charge up the battery when you're at home before or after your nightly dog walk. Useful, wouldn't you agree?

 

Despite its larger size, the torch is made to be lightweight. Another benefit is the spotlight is designed to be portable, with a shoulder strap included to enable hands-free use.

 

Use Your Head

One of the most talked about products in the ProSeries range is the Head-Torch.

 

Activated by a simple wave of the hand through a motion sensor, the head-torch is a truly hands-free product, with great battery life of up to 8 hours on the highest beam setting!
