Gorillatorch — Bringing Light Anywhere

Those smart people at Joby have released another useful gadget and as soon as you see it, you’ll wonder why no one has thought of it before. The Gorillatorch is a bright flashlight (65 lumens) that weighs less that 2 ounces and sits atop those famous Joby “gorilla” tripod legs. The flexible legs can be used to attach the Gorillatorch to just about anything; the feet are powerful magnets that can attach the light to any metal surface, even a wall. $30, three AAA batteries (in the U.S.) included.
