Pocketable EDC torches like these Blukar minis sit in the same space as keyring lights and small backup flashlights from brands such as Olight and Anker. You get a twin pack, so one can live on your keys or in a glovebox while the other stays in a drawer for quick power cuts and night walks. Being rechargeable keeps running costs down compared with disposable battery torches, and the IPX6 rating suggests they can cope with heavy rain and splashes without fuss.

Who are these mini torches best for?

Anyone who wants a small light that is ready when a phone torch is not, or when you need a more directed beam for looking in cupboards, under seats, or along a path. Three lighting modes give you flexibility, for example a lower setting for close up jobs and a brighter mode when you need reach.

  • 2 pack: easier to keep one as a spare or share with a partner.

  • 3 modes: lets you balance brightness against battery life.

  • IPX6: suitable for wet weather use.
