In the world of trailers, the Airstream stands out as one of the best. So when you are looking to brew a pot of tea, whether you are in the top of the line airstream or a run down single wide, just fire up the burner under this Airstream teapot and let it heat up. Keep in mind that lighting a fire under a trailer is only good in case of this particular trailer, do not try it with the real thing.

Under most circumstances, hanging a flashlight from the ceiling would be about as ghetto as you could get with regard to interior lighting. However, these are made of porcelain so, all of a sudden, it’s avant garde.

Finally, a product for all those who have trouble getting anywhere on time. There is nothing like arriving at your campsite only to find that the sun has set, it is then that you realize just how dark it can get when there is no electricity around to power all the lights you are used to. These tent pegs have an LED light built into them, so as long as you remembered your tent and its accessories then you have lighting to set up your campsite. These might be the one thing that saves you from being killed by those who made the mistake of including you in their plans.

Ok, so it may take a bit of imagination to consider the jumper cables pictured above to be an alien. The scary looking jaws and lit up eyes are about as good as it gets. But you have to admit that having jumper cables with LED lighting in them to allow you to be able to see so you can properly hook them up is a pretty ingenious design. Just squeeze the jaws and the light is on. And the price of these is cheaper than even buying that new battery you most likely need.

All those fireflies you caught as a kid and wasted with your car grill as an adult have apparently had a significant impact on their population worldwide. So much so that Japan had to produce this terrarium just so they could be enjoyed on a regular basis. The bamboo cage comes complete with vegetation and three electric fireflies with LED ass-lighting action. The product measures 12.5cm x 15.5cm x 10cm, and includes 2AA batteries.

To the wealthy and refined, this is unique lighting on the cutting edge of functional contemporary art, and well worth the $4,320 price tag. To everyone else, it’s an image of what you’d get if a caterpillar had sex with a zipper in a pile of nuclear waste. This is how comic book characters are born, people.

Come bask in the glow of this global warming light and get a head start on world geography as it will appear after cow farts and man’s burning of fossil fuels turn the world’s glaciers into 200 extra feet of ocean water. But don’t get too confident, because if it all turns out to be a gigantic crock of shit you may find yourself standing in front of your teacher blaming Al Gore for your inability to recognize any coastal states.

As you may have noticed, Nerd Approved got a makeover during the weekend. The cosmetic updates are relatively minor, but functionality has been improved on both my end and yours. Better navigation / access to twitter and RSS feeds, gravitar support, threaded comments and a secti0n in the sidebar highlighting featured content (which may or may not stay) are among these changes. There is still some tweaking to be done, but I hope that you guys approve of the upgrade overall.
UPDATE: Featured content section removed.
