Petzl is a household name in head torch circles, although you probably can’t tell by looking at their social media accounts. These often focus on climbing equipment tutorials, which the brand is equally known for.
Nevertheless, Petzl is considered one of the best head torch companies, and of the many head torches they offer, the Swift RL is one of the most popular models. The successor of the Petzl Swift RL, the Petzl Swift RL 2 is brighter and more refined than the original model, making it extremely well-suited for high-octane outdoor pursuits such as trail running.
