as tiltle suggests am after a cheap reliable headlamp , rechargable, or normal batteries any will do as long as it will last bout 5 hours with decent light
 
Rechargeable 3000 LM T6 LED Headlamp Headlight Head Torch Lamp Night Light | eBay

Loads like this on sale. I have 1 of these and another similar. If you need a zoomable one have a search. They work great, give good light and last all night used on and off. I am not one of those anglers who is scared of the dark and needs a 5 billion candle power light on all night so I can blind every angler for 1/2 a mile, so I can't say how long it lasts in constant use, but mine has never gone flat over 8 hour sessions on the rocks and beaches.
 
Ive just bought a xtreme bright sport high/low and blue for £20 off amazon seems a canny light
had a aldi £6 one but the bracket broke it runs on 3 aaa I left it on and it ran for 4 days (duracells) solid before it died Iam going to keep it in my box for emergencies

Bob all of the cree lights are great it's the battery's you need to spend a bit on I've got some genuine black ultrafire battery's and there brilliant keeps my light on for hours

Did you know these cree lights run on 1 battery and are just as bright as if you had 2 in

cheers dave
wheres best to get spare batteries mate
 
I buy mine off ebay but make sure you buy the black ones..
If you search nitecore 18650 those are the ones to have if you want to spend on them properly... mind there almost £15 each but we'll worth it in the long run

Maplins sell them aswell

Bought quite a few cheap Cree headlights but last year decided on getting a decent one so went for a Princeton. Also got some Duracell rechargeable batteries.

Don't bother with cheap ones buy a decent one like a led lenser 14r2.
7 year no quibble guarantee. Andy Nickerson used to get them for £70.
