Whether it's better than any other I've no idea (my first one) but it works fine for me.
The only niggle I have is the four way button switch. One press is on at max, next press is half as bright and a third press gives a strobing light. Next press is off. Whatever you would need the half bright and flashing for I can't imagine, but I find it irksome to turn it off. So, if possible, get a Cree LED, but with a simple on-off button.

If your after really good performance, it will cost more than a few quid !

Been using a Led Lenser head torch for some time for MOT testing work among other activities. Superb and well worth the extra £ as you will not be looking to upgrade a poor performance one !

Both really good items if needed for regular use.

I have a small LED torch that I generally hold in my mouth.
Not only does it make aiming the light easier it cuts down on the swearing!
