Welcome to the Smart Stuff flashlights section with some of the world's smartest gadgets, inventions and ideas in flashlights (torches) and other portable lighting.



Stanley Tripod Flashlight

Tripod flashlight.
A tripod flashlight seems to be the thing to have when you are alone and have to change a flat in the dark. We do not know if there are any like it, but this one has been awarded in the recently presented IDEA Awards 2007. The flashlight, called MaxLife 369 TriPod Flashlight from Stanley, is actually even smarter than what one thinks at first, since each of the legs contain 3 AA size batteries. The batteries in each leg is promised to last for 75 hours and the brightness can be adjusted in three steps; 1 LED, 3 LEDs or all 6 LEDs. The flashlight is available, among other places, on Amazon, where it is USD 22:82. [Via]

Reelight magnetic induction self powered bike lights.

Magnetic induction bike lights.
Today is a sunny day and the thermometer shows +6-7°C. Spring is here and so is the bike season. To mark the occasion we will feature another bike gadget. This tip comes from Paul L., who admits he has not tried them, but still thinks the idea is smart. We can't but agree. The lights are from Danish Reelight, and they are invented by Troels Pedersen. The light, or lights, are based on electromagnetic induction, which means they generate their own power. No resistance like you get from an ordinary dynamo, no battery changes as with ordinary bike lights. The light are attached to the front and back hubs, and the magnets to the spokes of the wheels. Every time a magnet passes a light electricity is generated. Simple. The lights are DKK 299:- (approx. USD 53:- or EUR 40:-) for a kit of front and rear lights, four magnets and mounting details.

Innova 24/7 emergency flashlight with automatic SOS signal in Morse code

Advanced emergency flashlight.
In the pile of mail that was waiting for us on our return home the other day we found the new issue of Svensk Jakt (the Swedish Hunter's Federation magazine). There we found a review of this smart little flashlight. Made for outdoors use, it is waterproof and has a Lithium battery that does not lose its charge over time and that won't go weak in the cold. It has eight LED lights; four white, two red and two yellow, and the lights can be set to flash in a number of different combinations. Among them is a perfect flashing SOS in Morse code! It can also be used as an ordinary flashlight, but it does not exactly come cheap. The SRP in Sweden is SEK 925:- (approx. USD 134:-). Innova 24/7

Solar powered waterproof bike light
Solar bike light.
This waterproof bike light appeared in our morning paper today, and although we suspect some of our (Swedish) readers also read the same paper, we think the little light is so smart we want to mention it anyway. It is promised to deliver 8 hours of light providing it gets charged with 3 hours of direct sunlight. It is also supposed to charge under an electric light (60W), but there is no mention of the charging time. According to the paper it sells for SEK 195:- (approx. USD 28:-) in stores. On the LockerRoom site it is SEK 230:- (approx. USD 33:-) including Swedish VAT and domestic postage.
