A couple of weeks ago, I reviewed the 0.5 Watt Headlight by Coghlan’s. This one isn’t as powerful, but is still enough to light the night for a whole summer’s worth of camp outs.
Review: Coghlan’s 0.5 W LED Headlight
After writing the review for the Coghlan’s LED Micro Lantern, Coghlan’s offered to send me 2 new LED headlights to review. Today I am going to take a look at the 0.5 Watt LED Headlight from Coghlan’s. The wattage of this headlight is serious. If you need to be able to see anywhere you point [...]
Review: Coghlan’s LED Micro Lantern
Back in the day, about 20 years ago when I was in Boy Scouts, options for a lightweight lantern were rare; you either took along a big fluorescent lantern or a propane lantern. Lanterns are better than flashlights because they provide a circle of light around your entire work area instead of just one spot. [...]
The Energizer Hard Case Tactical Flashlight Review
I love gadgets! I have no idea why I am such a gadget person but I have always had this desire for items that were different, unique, functional and fun. There was a time in my life that my friends would say “if it has buttons, Jack will buy it”. I used to laugh but [...]
Review: USB AAA Battery Charger with Torch from USB Fever
Have you ever needed to give your cell phone a little bit of juice to get through a call? Were you near a socket when you needed to do it? If not, then you might wish that you had carried the USB AAA Battery Charger with Torch from USB Fever with you. It’s now become [...]
Crank It Up: XC-253 Flashlight Review
Here in the states with the change of seasons, there is always the possibility of inclement weather, power outages at home or being lost in the campgrounds with nightfall approaching. The Boy Scouts have a motto: Be Prepared. “Be prepared for what?” someone once asked Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the World Scout Movement. “Why, [...]
The Multi-Color LED Flashlight Review
What a long way�we have come, fire, torches, oil lanterns, and then the common everyday flashlights we all use. The flashlight to me is a neat human invention, a battery source running a bulb all mounted inside a portable casing so that you would never have to be stuck in the dark. The 21st century [...]
The Spyker USB Light Review
[Ed. note: Larry originally wrote this review for the Palm Is Life forum, but he has also translated it for Gear Diary. To see this review in the original Chinese, click here.] If you are like me, used to bringing your laptop PC to your bed and typing all night long in a dark room, [...]
The Lumaray FL12-RX LED Flashlight Review
It’s hard to believe that this will be my fourth Lumaray LED flashlight review, but it’s true. Every time Lumaray releases a new light, I have to wonder what they could possibly do to improve upon their past version, but each time they manage to surprise and impress me. Let’s take a trip down memory [...]
The Datexx SuperBattery Rechargeable USB Power Bank Review
Datexx seems to have a power generator for just about every situation�in which�a user might find his or herself. Today I am going to take a look at their SuperBattery, which is billed as a rechargeable USB power bank that can be used to extend a device’s battery power or give a one-hour fast charge [...]
The Cobra StunLight Review
According to Universal Guardian, the perfect weapon does not kill, it is safe to use in any environment, and it will not harm innocent bystanders. They say that the perfect weapon is accurate, effective, and will never let you down. According to them the perfect weapon already exists, and they call it the Cobra StunLight. [...]
The MyLight Marklight Review
For as long as I can remember, I have been an avid reader. Even with repeated warnings from my mother to “use a better light or you’ll be sorry; you’re ruining your eyes”, I was never very particular about the light in the room; as long as I could make out the letters on a [...]
The Datexx Sentina Outback Rechargeable PowerBank Review
I’m always looking for alternative sources of power for my electronic devices, which is why the Datexx Sentina Outback Rechargeable PowerBank caught my eye. Billed as a super bright LED flashlight, a motion detector / emergency light, a USB charger for electronic gadgets, a power generator, and an SOS siren, the Outback almost sounds like [...]
