Severals years ago, a friend gave me a super-bright LED keychain flashlight. It’s was a very useful thing to always have at hand. Bright enough to function as a real flashlight on a darkened path, perfect for finding the right key and the lock when the porch light was burned out. It broke into pieces in my pocket a couple of nights ago and I vowed to replace it immediately. Today, I saw this DIY one on Make, made out of a TicTac box (got plenty of those lying around). Geek folk art/fashion statement AND handy pocket tool. What more could you ask for? Maybe a Blue Balls table lamp?
