Normally Space Invaders are not particularly helpful- in fact they seem hellbent on destroying everything in their (back and forth) paths. But this Space Invaders Light-Up Keychain is actually pretty helpful because his eyes light up. He could help you find your keyhole…then once you get inside blast you with an 8bit laser. Or maybe you can trust a Space Invader…I certainly wouldn’t.

Space Invaders Light-Up Keychain
Normally Space Invaders are not particularly helpful- in fact they seem hellbent on destroying everything in their (back and forth) paths.

Tweeting Bird Bicycle Horn
You gotta be safe out there. Ya jus gots to. Yeah we said it- gots. So dress up ye’ ole Schwinn with a Tweeting Bird Bike Horn and let them know you’re coming- bird style. Normally “bird style” is just pooping on people’s heads but since that’s usually impractical for humans this horn makes a noise. It also has 9 bright LEDs and is water resistant so you can light up the rain. Slides in and out of his mount for use as a flashlight (or a person horn).
Worley Lightworx Flat Flashlight Could Fit In Your Wallet
The nice thing about most modern smartphones is that they can double as flashlights when you don’t have a bigger, brighter one around. But believe it or not, it’s not everybody that carries a smartphone around these days. Don’t you have a grandpa, or uncle that just swears by his old Nokia feature phone? We bet they would like this Worley Lightworx Flat Flashlight. It’s 3.5mm thin and barely bigger than a credit card, so it might fit it a standard wallet (or at the very least, unobtrusively in your back pocket), and it uses LED-based technology similar to the backlighting in a cellphone to illuminate continuously for up to 10 hours.
It’s the kind of present you buy someone for whom you care about, but just not that much. And if you want yours, it’s $25 on pre-order at Kickstarter.

Panasonic Flashlight Can Be Powered With Any Size Battery
When you’re out of power and poking around in the dark, a flashlight is always useful. But you know what ends up happening half the time, right? The batteries are out, and then you have to fumble in the dark looking for new ones, and well, they’re never the right ones. Panasonic seems to have solved this issue by manufacturing a flashlight, called the Any Battery Light, that can not only accept batteries of any size, but also any number of them. So if all you have is a single AA battery, the light will still work, only for less time than if you’d loaded it up with a bunch. If you insert one of every type of supported battery (AA, AAA, D and C), the device would last for about 86h, which is plenty. Best of all, it’s expected to run about 2,000 yen (US$24), so there’s really no reason not to have one in a drawer somewhere.
It’s available starting January 24th, though we’re unsure on which markets. Probably Japan.

Lego Darth Vader Head Lamp
Let the Dark Side light your way with a Lego Darth Vader Head Lamp. See, he’s not such a bad guy, right? The clip-on mini-Jedi can attach to the headband or your bag or anything else you want to clip him onto (no, not the dog Jimmy… or your little brother, please).
That’s how you do it, Anakin. Batteries are included, kid, no Force necessary.
Waistband Mounted Flashlight: Better than a Headlamp
Mounting a flashlight on your waist is clearly superior to the traditional headlamp. Sure if you’re exploring a cave or sewer then a head mounted light is ideal but for walking or running a light the Walker’s Path Illuminating Belt lights the ground much better. The belt shines a bright 100 lumen LED light with pinpoint accuracy, no washout or blinding fellow walkers. The light can be set to wide angle of spotlight and the rear of the belt has a pair of pockets, an LED light and reflective strips to keep you safe by making you visible to cars. As it gets dark earlier, this could be very helpful for walkers and joggers.
