Stuff says

The E+Lite won’t outshine bigger header torches, but it’s small, good value and dependable even in wet conditions
* * * *
  • Pros Small and powerful for its size. Pocket friendly. Comfortable head-torch
  • Cons Often unstable when free standing. Next to useless clothing clip.

Petzl’s E+Lite isn't the brightest head torch on the market; you can't use it for helping small planes to land, but if you only remember to take one light when you go camping, make sure it's an E+Lite.

Lighting up
Small and versatile, it is a little bigger than a two-pound coin and as thick as a box of matches. On half of its face are four LED's; three white and one red for preserving your night-vision.

The other half has a large swivel switch. There are two brightness settings for the white light and one for the red. Full beam white is surprisingly bright for such a small torch. Both white and red lights have flashing modes as emergency beacons.
