Surf-Mat – I've got the LED Lenser Police Tech Focus Torch and the quality of it is great, as is the brightness.
I got one for her indoors for her job, but was so impressed with it I got myself one to use as a helmet mounted light….but in reality it isn't quite bright enough so it's now 'just' used as a torch.
The quality of it is great, although the people on the CandlePower forums tend to rubbish LED Lenser, as they don't use constant current driver's in their torches, just a resistor (as I understand it).
I did notice the LED Lenser P7, which puts out a claimed 200 lumens. It has a push-pull focus mechanism to allow spot or flood beam. For use as a torch, I reckon it would be very good, but am not convinced by the battery life – 200 lumens from 3AAA batteries…!
Amazon do it for a good price, if you are thinking of getting one.
For the OP, I reckon one of those illuminated collars, combined with a decent LED torch should do the job…
