4:14PM Nick Broughall | Latestbuy’s announcement that they’re selling torches shaped like Lightsabers was met with a mixed response in my brain.

12:30PM Nick Broughall | The Gorillatorch from Joby we saw a few weeks ago has just been announced for Australia. For $50, there should be one in every car come launch in early October – not just because the magnetic feet are practical and the flexible legs mean you can stick it anywhere like all the other Gorillapods, but because it’s just so damned cute.

LED Bracelet Flashlight Frees Up Both Hands For Work
4:40AM Sean Fallon | Most of you probably know how annoying it is to work on something like an engine or a computer with a flashlight in one hand and a tool in the other. This bracelet helps free up both hands using four built-in LEDs—and it comes in packs of two so you can wear one on each wrist while you work. It’s a great idea, but I suppose your friends and fellow mechanics will be unable to risk a joke or two at your expense. Something like: “did you forget your purse today?” and “where’s the rave party boy?” Available for $US20. [Computer Gear via BookofJoe via Coolest Gadgets] More »
