REVIEW – Advances in LED technology, power management, and batteries have contributed to super bright flashlights, but some designs are excessive – a 100,000 lumen model costs $700, weighs over 4 pounds, and has a 5 inch reflector.

REVIEW – There are approximately 500 new EDC flashlights released daily. (This is only a rounding error – don’t @ me!) Most of them can be defined as a cylinder with a lens on one end. Wuben has a few flashlights that break this mold, and I was sent the most recent to review –

REVIEW – Lights on bikes used to just be for hardcore commuters and racers doing 24-hour endurance events. But more recently, lights have become a fixture on an increasing number of bikes, even during the daytime. This is due to the increase in bike-to-car collisions and an attempt by cyclists to make themselves more visible

NEWS – When I say that the QuiQlite TAQTracker minimalist wallet has basic multi-tool functionality, I’m referring to the fact that the anodized aluminum wallet features a 150 lumen flashlight, a screwdriver, and a glass breaker tip.

NEWS – I just said that Crocs are hideous, but in full transparency, I have a pair of them. But, I really only wear them to walk in the yard if it’s rained since it’s easier to clean the soles compared to my regular shoes. With that out of the way, here’s a way to
