The Spot and the Storm have been around for years. Robust and pretty powerful for their size, they're each a good solid choice for climbers and hillwalkers. A recent upgrade has improved their output and burn times: so which model better meets your needs? Here we look at the two new rechargeable versions.

I can say the Spot-R is useless, got one brand new and actually never got to use it as the button system only lasted about one use and it went bananas after that. I won it as a prize so BD wouldn't change it and wouldn't fix it, so I bin it.
Mine seems OK, I like the ability to have a dimmer spot or flood to walk/run, but can tap it to jump to full power for tricky bits.
Being able to charge it from a battery pack while being used also helps with burntime worries.
The light memory is great, as is the ability to fix it to bag straps etc.
