ArmyTek have a great reputation for producing solid, well supported and good value-for-money caving headlamps. As well as their popularity among cavers on the continent, they also have established contracts with military and police forces around the world due to their reliability and ruggedness.
The Wizard C1 Pro is their ultra-light/backup lamp, with a light output and battery life suitable for main beam use on shorter UK caving trips or for novice trips, but most useful as a light and small backup lamp. Its rechargeable 18350 battery makes it compact and more convenient than buying endless AA batteries. If you use an ArmyTek main beam, you can just carry the Wizard C1 lamp body and switch it onto the headband mount if needed - they're the same fitting.
With IP68-rated protection and a 10m submersion depth and 10m fall protection, you can be sure it'll survive pretty much anything a cave can throw at it. The magnetic charging system allows you effortlessly throw your helmet at it after a trip.
ArmyTek also cover their lamps with a 10 year manufacturer's warranty. If your lamp develops a fault within 10 years from purchase, get in touch with them and provide your order confirmation to prove purchase, and they'll arrange for repair or replacement of it - great peace of mind in a world of throwaway electronics.

Oversuit the wrong size? Bag bigger than you expected?
Not a problem, we're well aware of the unknowns of ordering gear online without seeing it in person first, or being able to try it on - we like to think we make the process as easy as possible.
If you've not used it yet and it's still in as-new condition, you can simply return it for either a refund or to swap for a different size.
Simply get in touch with us and let us know what the issue is, and we'll send you further details on sorting out your swap/refund.
Our View
Great lightweight backup lamp, or suitable for short to medium trips. You may find they've not got enough juice to be reliable on longer UK trips or big abroad trips. We love the magnetic charging and selection of brightness modes.Related Products
