Your smartphone’s camera flash doubles as a half-decent flashlight, but it’s incredibly bright and can be a little harsh on the eyes. Unless you strap this silicone Travelamp diffuser around your device, turning your smartphone’s camera’s flash into a soft bedside nightlight.
Because it’s made of flexible silicone the Travelamp — available in both a lamp and lantern version — can be easily smooshed into a corner of a suitcase while you’re travelling. And it’s easy to install on most smartphones, and even easier to remove when you need to take a call. It will also sell for just $US8 when available sometime in October, making it one of those impulse buys that could end up being an invaluable travel accessory.
