Flashlight & Lighter
While knives, and multi tools are the most popular everyday carry tools. Do not underestimate the importance of both a flashlight and lighter.
Anker Flashlights
Anker is makes some of the most bright, rugged, weatherproof and rechargeable flashlights we have seen. Super bright at 900 lumens you can light up the length of 2 football fields with the LC90. The LC40 is smaller an at 400 lumens it is still way brighter then a cell phone which on average is 12 – 60 lumens.Streamlight
Streamlight is a hands on company that focuses purely on lighting solutions. Great company that makes solid products. Their MacroStream USB Flashlight boasts 500 lumens, runs for 8 hours and is ULTRA COMPACT as it easily slides into your pocket or can clip to your hat to use as an impromptu headlamp.
Arc Lighter by Stealth Angel Survival
As a general guideline we are personally trying to rid ourselves of disposable single use items that pollute the earth. The future is plasma. With the Arc Lighter a simple push of a button immediately unleashes a fiercely powerful dual-arc beam that ferociously ignites anything it touches. At $20 this makes a great gift exchange item or stocking stuffer. Rad color choices are available, and its rugged look makes it easy to kick the disposable lighter habit.
We know all you camp lovers will enjoy these tools. Get ahead on your holiday shopping and supply your crew with gifts that will enhance their next camping excursion. You’ll find great use in it all!
