Ledlenser MH10 v H8R LED Head Torches
A quick comparison of the German engineered Ledlenser MH10 and H8R LED head torches.
Ledlenser are known world over for their high quality head torches, and two of the most popular options are the MH10 and the H8R. From the Sport & Outdoor range and the Home & Life range respectively, these are fantastic all-rounders, with excellent running times and high lumen outputs. The table below outlines some key facts about each model:
| MH10 | H8R | |
| 600 lumens | Max Output |

| 10 hours | Run Time (on high) | 10 hours |
| 120 hours | Max Run Time |

As we can see, the performance of both torches is identical, the only real difference we have is the included equipment and the physical colour of the head torches. The MH10 comes complete with coloured filtered caps as well as a pouch which the H8R doesn't include.

As a millwright mechanic this is by far the best headlamp set up compared to even more expensive head lamps that I also own. Easy to charge and also my #1 go to for camping.
