The Grainger Group Say
The Grainger Group in Bridgend, South Wales has proved itself to be the leading light of the headgear industry with its new Lucifer Cap range of stylish baseball caps with LED lights incorporated into the peak.

Electricians, meter readers, mechanics, fishermen and campers alike have recognized the practicality of The Lucifer Cap which is an essential item if you are in dim lights and require two free hands and clear visibility.

Sport and fitness enthusiasts also reap up the benefits of the Lucifer Cap which has a discrete switch on one side to turn the LED lights on and off, making the cap ideal for use in the dark whilst jogging, walking or cycling to increase visibility, while in the daylight the Lucifer Cap provides all the advantages of a traditional baseball cap.

The list of uses for the Lucifer Cap really is as long as your imagination! From during a power-cut to feeding animals at night; from rummaging around in the attic or garden shed to nature watching.

FISHINGmagic VERDICT

To start with it’s a decent cap, not just some cheap thing with all the cost gone into the lights.

It’s comfortable and the small, flat batteries are not an issue when wearing it. They weigh next to nothing and you can’t feel them: the cap feels just like a conventional baseball cap.

The light from the two LED’s is more than adequate for baiting the hook and seeing around your swim. It’s adequate for walking off in the dark.

The wiring is hidden and unobtrusive and the push-button on/off switch small but easy to use.

You need to pull the cap down to just above your eyebrows when looking down to tie a hook or bait up, but that is not a problem.

I smiled when I first saw it, thinking it was yet another gimmick. But no, I’ve worn it quite a few times now when fishing into darkness and I can honestly say I like it – a lot. And the price is excellent considering you can pay more than £ 11.99 for a decent cap without any lights!

I haven’t tried the winter version yet, but you can be sure I will. Check back here for a full report.
