Portal turrets and personality cores know a thing or two about seeing in the dark, which is why you should light your way with these Turret and Wheatley LED flashlights.
The former features turret sound effects from Portal and Portal 2 while the latter has a keychain hook so you can take him with you on the go.
The Clear29 LT may not the best skateboard on the planet, but its the only one I’ve seen that wouldn’t look out of place in a dance club.

The wait has finally ended for Finn Magee’s Flat Light Poster, which is now available in a very limited quantity of 50 pieces. According to Finn, the design came about after borrowing an Anglepoise task light back in 2007. After noticing that the lamp provided an atmosphere of productivity and efficiency to the room, he decided to see if an image of the light could provide the same effect.
The Flat Light has been exhibited at the Royal College of Art Summer show in 2007 and as part of Designers in Residence at the Design Museum, London. The printed poster utilizes an LED for illumination and measures 16.5″ x 23.5″.

But it doesn’t know when to say “when”—that part is up to you. The gimicky LED display is programmable for messages up to 255 characters in length, and will scroll for approximately 40 hours before the battery runs out.
Motionlite is a universal, remote-controlled retractable wheel lighting LED system which is mounted in the wheel well of your car on a power telescoping six-inch arm that will illuminate your rims in a number of different colors. But why limit this to cars with dubs? You can always take the humor angle by installing this on a Model T or a junker with bald tires and rusted hubcaps… Instant funny.
Marvel has teamed up with RTC23 to release “the ultimate comic fan’s TV”.

It’s hard to stay focused on the laptop when your USB monkey lamps look like they want to beat the hell out of each other. You may have to put work on hold and let these two duke it out in a male vs. female rock em’ sock em’ primate battle royal. The loser will be unceremoniously unplugged from the USB port while hanging their LED powered head in shame. Check out an additional photo after the break.
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.
