Gadget to Go

WHAT: HUGlight (www.mylight.com) is a hands-free, dual-headed LED flashlight.

HOW IT WORKS: The U-shaped, bendable light is extremely adaptable. For example, a camper, hiker or backpacker can hang the light from the neck, with the LED “arms” bent up for better illumination. It also can be bent around objects or hung from the top of a tent. Two AAA batteries power it for as long as 40 hours (the manufacturer says). Each flashlight head has a spotlight bulb and a wide-angle bulb. They can light separately or simultaneously. Easily accessed buttons atop the lights turn them on and also cycle through the brightness options.

HIGH POINTS: This is a superstar among flashlights: very bright and quite pliable. The foam covering the internal, bendable spine is comfortable. I hung one on both my dogs, and even the more nervous one didn’t mind. The best use for me was pinching it onto a ball cap. The light is bright (50 lumens) for detail work. I even pulled both ends out to make it a 2-foot stick and twirled it like a baton. So if you need to attract someone’s attention, it’s the next best thing to a signal flare.

Cool Tools

“Ever tried repairing a leaky sink trap while holding a flashlight? It’s difficult, if not impossible. Now it’s HUGlight (by ShowerTek Inc.) to the rescue. Coil its flexible wire arms so it sits on a flat surface, flip on the four LED lights at the end of its two tails, and you’ve got enough illumination to do an appendectomy.

Covered in soft foam, the arms also wrap around your neck for household repairs and bedtime reading. The lights, two spot and two wide-angle, operate independently. Runs for 40 hours on two AA batteries. $14.95 at www.mylight.com and coming to Wal-Mart, Costco and other retailers.”

Lugging, Hugging, and Mugging

“Covered in fuzzy orange with a pink flashlight thingie wrapped around my neck, I was quite the sight on our 10-hour flight to the Netherlands a few weeks ago… Then along came the HUGlight ($19). It’s a one-piece, hands-free, flexible LED light, 13 inches long when stretched out. I love them all. Diane appreciates the versatile HUGlight.
The beauty is in its flexibility and versatility. When you wear an LED headlamp, you can’t look someone in the eye or you’ll blind them. With the lightweight HUG, you can direct the light more appropriately. Lights are at both ends and have three settings. You can also prop it up in a coil or cobra for a little mini table lamp, or hook it over something. On the plane I used it for reading at night, because I hate the too-high airplane lights, and for help in locating the numerous items I dropped under my seat. Glasses, pens, etc.”

Honorable mention during installation of computer server

“With the physical installation out of the way it was time to wire up the beast. It is a bit dark in the back of the rack so we needed some light. Luckily this year I got one of the best stocking stuffers ever, a HUGlight.

The LEDs are bright and the bendable arms are sturdy. You can bend the thing to hang it in your work area, snake it through holes to put light where you need it, stand it on the floor pointing up at your work. The possibilities are endless. Leo thought of a way to use it that I had not yet, he made it into a hat!”

Tech the halls: gifts for gadget-lovers

“Few things are as comforting as curling up under a Snuggie with a good book; few things are as frustrating as curling up and not having enough light to read the book you curled up with. The lightweight HUGlight is a flexible, soft foam tube with LED lights on either side, one for wide angle, the other a spotlight; there’s a rubber grip neck pad in the back to hold it in place once you get cozy. You get 40 hours of light off two AAA batteries. In several colors for $14.95, at Walmart, Costco and other retailers or www.mylight.com. And yes, we love our Snuggie, silly as it looks.”

See what “Boing Boing” had to say about the HUGlight:

“Of the many booklights I’ve tried, this one ($15 at Amazon) is the best. With four LED lights, two on the end of each flexible stalk, the clincher is that it’s never clutter. It can be molded into a bedside lamp, hung around the neck for weightless book reading, wrapped around the wrist for plumbing jobs, and so on. Some suggested configurations: ‘The Charmed Snake’, ‘The Helix’, and ‘The Pistol’. I understand that the official term for the configuration depicted in the PR photo is ‘The Screamer’. “

“For those of us who still like printed books, I like this better than those reading lights that attach to your book, because you don’t have to keep repositioning it. It goes around your neck on a flexible arm. Two AAA batteries come with it.”

Sport Diver had this to say about the Clip light:

“Where is it written that a book light must be used only for books? Climb out of that pigeonhole with the MyLight LED Clip Light, a mini-clamp lamp that fits in your palm, pumps out a beam bright enough to make you squint, never burns out, and attaches to practically anything with a wide-opening rubberized clip.

Use it as a book light, a no-USB-port-needed keyboard light for your laptop, a map reading light in the car, and anywhere from a shelf or a hat to a tent, toolbox or music stand. It’s also useful for lighting up hard-to-see spots like sock drawers, tackle boxes, and the tangle of wires behind your desk or home entertainment center.

The cleverness is in the clamp. The jaws open a whopping 1.25″ to accommodate items of different sizes, the circular feet pivot in their sockets to handle uneven surfaces, and the spring-loaded clip mechanism closes just as tightly onto thin objects as thick ones. The feet are also rubberized to provide a non-skid, non-marking grip.

The lighting portion of the product is housed in a ping pong ball-sized case that swivels to allow the light beam to be aimed in any direction. Click once on the rubber switch on the back of the ball, and you trigger two white LEDs. Click again, and you get two red night-vision LEDs for those times when you need to see in pitch-black conditions.

The product is waterproof, shock resistant, and available in pink, blue, black, purple, green, and clear. It comes with two lithium batteries and has an average battery life of 40 hours. The LEDs never need to be replaced.”
