Itβs very much βthe gift we want to be the viral gift this yearβ. I searched on Amazon for flashlights this year, and the first three pages were all variations on this thing. And the croc flashlights are proof that we live in hell.
I don't even know when you would need this?
Anytime you need to use your hands but still need to see what you're doing. I can think of dozens of times I've needed a light to work on something with both hands in a badly lit area but didn't have someone to hold the flashlight.
That said, I'd probably want the battery pack somewhere else because I could see that being an issue hooking on things, especially in tight spots.
I totally see it but I feel like the same spaces where you need more light to see your hands and can't use a light are those where you can't fit extra stuff in with your fingers, if you get my thought.
Ya, that's why the battery pack placement isn't ideal in my opinion. I can't even count how many times I've busted a watch band because it hooked on something. Mind you I have bigger hands, maybe it works out better for those who don't.
Wouldn't a headlight do the trick?
Sort of... a lot of the time it's getting the light at the right angle and keeping it there that's the issue. Especially when working on vehicles. Gloves like this would help in that regard, but have their own set of issues to deal with.
And this would have been a better solution than a headlamp?
I need these so I can look at my wifeβs kidneys.
First one that makes sense, SatansMaggotyCumFart.

My boss got me one for working inside control cabinets. As you usually have to have to power cut when poking around in a cabinet, lighting has to be supplied externally.
They could theoretically be decent for some car work where the body of the car shades everything.
They're better in idea than reality. 6/10
Also think of them as a supplement to a headlamp. Since your hands frequently shade what you're actually touching, these help supplement light right on the region of a hand shadow.
I could think of a million use cases just for a flexible flashlight alone. Every engine bay on modern cars is jam packed with shit or the space has been cleared for a crumple zone.
Let me know why the precogs say.
I came in thinking of a flesh joke but I leave with the fist joke instead...
That's hilarious, I received a pair of these this morning as well, hahaha
Haha two people in my family just got this gift from two different givers
Why does your hand look more like a claw than a hand?
Why does everyone think we're all stumbling around in the dark?
