Product Description

Product Description

If you think the concept of multitasking is overrated, don’t tell the people at Gerber who developed the patent-pending Recon Task Light Torch. The torch’s LED format lets you choose from four different colours of light depending upon your needs at any particular time. Gerber’s official name for this proprietary technology is DIAL, which stands for Diode Illumination Adjustable Lens.

What this new design means is that you can dial in the colour of light that'll serve you best--white for general situations, red for preserving night vision, blue for identifying fluids and green for map reading. A clever yet practical feature that we added to this product is a flat spot just above the red lens, so that you can easily find the correct setting with your thumb in the dark.

The LED light in the Recon is highly efficient and reliable--it won't break like ordinary flashlight bulbs so you won’t need to replace the light during the lifetime of the product. The on/off switch is activated by screwing the cap of the torch, which ensures that there is no way for the torch to accidently turn on while it’s in your rucksack. All of this functionality is powered by a single AA battery. The Recon Task Light Torch weighs just 74 grams but delivers a tonne of task-specific light, right when you need it.

Product Description

Features 4 white LED, emits four different colors, Diode illumination adjustable lens system and a lanyard.

4.0 out of 5 stars Glasgow, 2 Sep 2007

There are no product dimensions with the gerber recon ad..so I think the 1st thing to mention is that this is a tiny little torch!. It runs on one AA battery (which is a good thing-easily replacable), however, the torch itself is not much bigger than the battery. This is not a critisism - its a handy, tough lttle torch of almost entirely metal construction. It feels pretty idestructable,and is easily pocket sized. Also, the advertised 100 hour battery life seems genuine. The white led is the brightest setting, and throws a moderately bright beam out to about 10ft - the other colours are more for discreet close up area lighting..handy for moving around with, when you dont want others to know you are there (should such a situation ever arise?). I imagine police officers, security guards or soldiers, might find these discreet light settings useful. ALL in all..a tough compact little torch, that gives out a moderate amount of light for a very long time. 4 stars.

This review is from: Gerber Recon Task Light Torch (DIY & Tools)
This torch is compact but built to the highest standards and very easy to use. Another plus is the battery life as we haven't changed from the original AA even after daily use. The torch fits easily in a pocket and even with the single LED is easily capable of showing the way after dark. The different colours are useful and seem to give different light strengths or that may be more to do with the eyes sensitivity to light at different wavelengths. We were so impressed with this compact torch that we intend to buy another. It would be ideal for camping, keeping in the car or just reading in bed! The red light is very relaxing for reading or seeing although whether it improves night vision will probably depend on how dark it really is. If you are looking for a good, reliable and small torch this is highly recommended and the additional colour outputs prove surprisingly useful once you start to experiment and move away form the normal white light. If you are looking to really light up the darkness you'll need something bigger that goes through more batteries much faster but to see where your feet are going, this is fine.
