Hi there,plenty of threads with loads of info on the site that will give you plenty of advice.I know alot of lads will talk about the cree headlamps[not sure if rechargeable/just long term batteries] as been good i can't verify as ive never used one.What i use myself is a speleo nova plus and i find it very good[and bright].Veals are doing them for 100 down from 150 failing that i would imagine the led lenser rechargeable would be a good bet.
Dan in halfway had a few rechargeables the last time i saw him 50 odd euro i think give him a bell he might be able to sort you.
Tight lines

thats a bad scratch in that record record record record record :shock:
buy yourself a rechargable 5 watt cree on ebay for 30 nicker and buy a new rod with the money you save LOL(you get lithium 3.7 volt batteries that work better and at lower temp to ordinary rechargables :wink: )
