Striker magnetic LED light brightens tight places from a dozen angles

mine_flashlight.pngThis golf-ball-sized flashlight is unlike any other, shaped like a underwater mine and bristling with LEDs loaded with one particularly powerful LED. Its twelve points are tipped with powerful neodymium magnets, clinging to any steel surface and letting you aim it every which way.

That LED inside benefits from the recent advances in those high-efficiency light sources, so this little hotshot can blast out the light, and fits in tight places while doing its illuminating work. Such a deal at around $9.

"bristling with LEDs"
Um, did you read any of the information they gave, or watch the video, because if you did you would notice ONE LED. Now I'm no grammer expert, but I am not sure if the term "bristling" can really be applied to a singular entity.

Hey, thanks, TALI713 -- you're absolutely right. I have corrected the post accordingly!
