Let-down torches for a family trip 17 March 2026

I was walking back to the car after dusk and the torch went dead. Not great, given I’d bought three of these for myself and the kids because we need decent kit for evening walks and a bit of hunting. The price looked good, which is why I took a chance. Delivery arrived fine and on time, so that part was OK. But after a few months one torch simply stopped. I contacted Skilhunt and got bounced to AliExpress. No reply from the seller there for weeks — months, actually. I tried the official site again and they offered to sell me a replacement driver, which felt like a small win. Then during a recent outing a second torch failed without any warning. Back to square one. Now two torches are out of action and one works, so I’m left wondering if they were ever properly tested. Customer service has been patchy and slow, and it’s frustrating after spending around £120 on three units. Useful price, poor reliability and worse support. I’ll be looking elsewhere next time.
