Nebo hands-free LED light

Posted in Flashlights by Reuben Drake on October 1st, 2007

Nebo Hands free work light hooks to your ear like a headsetThis convenient little gadget from Nebo hooks on your ear and looks similar to many Bluetooth headsets but is actually a LED flashlight that lets you keep your hands free and have a light wherever your head’s pointing.

The LED light is adjustable, fits on either ear and has two modes; one is a bright white light and the other is green allowing you to illuminate something in the dark but not loose so much of your night vision. It runs off of a lithium battery and the LEDs are said to last over 100,000 hours without getting hot (over 11 years of continuous light). It retails for about $16 with shipping.

Squeeze beam technology

Brando Hand pressing gun flashlight has laser aim and is powered by squeezing the trigger with no batteriesAim, squeeze the trigger and see what you’re looking at. That’s the concept behind Brando’s Hand Pressing Gun Flashlight, an illuminator that comes with a red laser sighter. Aim that red dot at where you want to illuminate your beam of light and then when you squeeze the flashlight’s trigger two white LEDs wink on. The flashlight doesn’t require batteries since it uses the kinetic energy from your hand squeezing the trigger to power up the LEDs.

9-Volts of light

Posted in Flashlights by Chetz on September 20th, 2007

9-volt battery LED flashlightThis little gem is a perfect example of why the world of gadgetry is so great. The idea is so simple and has been sitting underneath our noses for years but it’s only now that someone has developed it. Take a look at the first flashlight that doesn’t require a flashlight, only a battery and the LED light.

The three LED lights snap on the top of any 9-volt battery and instantly transform it into a working mini-flashlight. There is even a power switch on it so you can conserve the charge remaining on the battery and leave the light still connected to it. The 9-Volt flashlights will be sold on the Kikkerland website beginning next month and are expected to retail for under $10. Now all we need are different colored LED units and we can create our own 9-Volt light show.

Another bright idea

The Power Failure LightThe problem with a power outage is that there is never a flashlight handy when the lights go out. Sure, you may know where your flashlights are and they may be fully charged but do you remember what’s lying on the floor or in the doorway? At least if you trip over something that you can’t see in your own home you know that you won’t sue yourself.

The Power Failure Light is a novel invention that makes a lot of sense. It’s a base that connects between your power socket and the light bulb. Six LED lights are fixed around it and when there’s a power outage they will switch on and give you a bright source of illumination in the dark.

SureFire Titan Flashlight Looks Good

Posted in Flashlights by Darrin Olson on June 12th, 2007

Surefire Titan LED flashlight made of titaniumFlashlights usually aren’t that exciting to me but I felt this Titan LED flashlight was worth writing about. After all, it is from SureFire who makes military grade flashlights. It’s also made out of titanium with a virtually indestructible LED, but its main feature is a continuous variable output from 0 to 65 lumens so you can adjust it to just about any amount of light anywhere in between.

This is the first “luxury flashlight” from Titan and its built to look good and last you just about forever, but it should …
