Dependable torches for roadside emergencies

A breakdown is stressful enough without trying to inspect a tyre, find a dropped item or open the boot in the dark. Keep a reliable torch in the car.

A compact VELLCOM torch earns its place in the glove box or emergency kit. It gives you useful light for checking the car, signalling for help and moving safely beside the road.

A grip you can trust

Rubberised bodies feel steady in cold hands, gloves and damp conditions when you need a light quickly.

Light for real jobs

Use a clear beam to check details, find kit and move confidently when daylight disappears.

Ready when you are

Choose a practical size for your kit and keep a dependable torch close to the jobs that matter.

A rubberised grip is easier to hold in cold or wet conditions, while a practical size means the torch is ready without taking over the glove box.

Keep a VELLCOM rubber torch where you can reach it quickly.
Choose a size that suits the space, route or job in front of you.
Carry a backup light when you are away from home or working late.
