Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight
If you’re looking for the ultimate LED head torch for your low-light angling then you need look no further than this offering from Chub. Offering a range of adjustments which allow you to modify the intensity and type of beam for your needs, whether you’re predator fishing after hours or setting up carp fishing before the sun has come up, the Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight is the perfect torch for all anglers and all scenarios – allowing you to tackle the banks in low light levels with confidence.
The first thing you’ll notice about this Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight is that is has a central over-head strap as well as the traditional circumference strap. This ensures that you never have to worry about this head torch slipping down your face whilst you’re wearing it and it prevents you from feeling as if you have to excessively tighten the head torch in order to ensure that it remains in the correct position. This head strap also supports the weight of the torch – a mere 155g – more evenly over your head. Wearing a head torch has never been more comfortable and you’ll be able to enjoy your angling well into the dark with this Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight.
The next thing you’ll notice about the head torch is its huge variety of settings. This ensures that you can modify the torch to suit your needs. The torch can be adjusted into 10 different angled positions. This means that you can direct the head torch beam to point down towards the ground or directly in front of you, as well as a range of options in between the two. If, for example, you’re working on rig construction then you might want to direct the beam of the head torch to point down the bridge of your nose, angling precisely at the rig in your hands. However, if you’d rather survey the water then you might want the beam of the torch to shine at a right angle to your face, giving you the greatest opportunity to spot the slightest movement on the water. However, this isn’t the only way that you can adjust the torch depending on where your eyes are focused. The Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight also allows you to adjust the intensity of the beam, sweeping between a single focussed LED for close up work right the way through to four spread LED’s for distance floodlight vision. This is ideal for all your night time angling, when you want to be able to clearly see everything that is going on over on the water. This torch has a maximum output of 125 lumens. This ensures that it is able to offer the kind of brightness that you require, as and when you need it.
You might be worried that this kind of lumen output would drain your torch battery exceptionally quickly – and you’d be right. This is why the Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight has also been fitted with a reduced power mode. In testing, Chub found that this reduced mode was more than appropriate for your day-to-day low-light level angling needs but the full power mode allows you to up the clarity when you need it the most. The torch also has a red beam option. This is perfect for those last vital moments when you’re landing, weighing, and releasing your capture. A bright light can startle and stun your capture whereas a red light is much less harsh, ensuring that you can practise proper on-bank fish care. Uniquely, this torch also comes with a green LED mode. This is perfect for your night time reading, as it offers you clear visibility of the page in front of you without encountering the same problems you’d face when reading against a bright white light. A single on/off switch operation also means that you can turn off the light with the push of a button – without the annoyance of having to cycle through all the light settings. Powered by standard batteries and supplied with its very own Duracell’s, this Chub Sat-A-Lite SL-250 Headlight is ideal for anglers across the disciplines.
