This looks NICE… The new Light for Life flashlight which uses an ultracapacitor instead of batteries. Because of the ultracapacitor it takes 90 seconds to charge up. It uses LED lights and can run for 90 minutes on that 90 second charge. I see some uses that this wouldn’t be appropriate for, but many that it would be great for…. (If they could sell a handcrank adapter or some portable charge method that could be excellent.) It comes with a mounting bracket, belt ring and DC charger. (The number of charge/recharge cycles of a lithium ion or himh battery would pale in comparison to the ultracapacitor.)

Electronics and Surplus stuff
For some time I’ve meant to do a post on some of my favorite places to find odd electronics components (and surplus stuff…) Something about electronics components is that there’s so much potential… anyway, I just placed an order with All Electronics for a handful of odds and ends. They’re probably the newest place on my “I’ve got to look at the catalog when it comes in” list. You’ll find pretty much nothing (or very little) in the way of finished consumer electronics….
