I realise some of you may feel cheated after reading that headline and then being presented with a photo of a screwdriver with lights but tough - this is a family(ish) type of site. Although I’m pretty sure there are crotch lights out there too for those other night time, er, encounters.

This is the Clever Collar, designed to bring light to those awkward dark jobs in hard to get places. Just slip the collar over the screwdriver – steady – and watch as three bright LEDs show you just where the screw head is.

Flexible center hole slides onto any manual screwdriver from 3/16" – 7/16" diameter, or onto cordless 1/4" power drivers. Also doubles as a handy inspection light with strong internal magnets to hold it in place.

This odd little device costs around £8 here. What happened to awkwardly holding a torch in your mouth?-Martin Lynch

a very nice device for all those tricky manual jobs.

like most gadgets out there it may turn out to be totally pointless, and useless.. but its better to have a gadget for every need other than other way around.
also, LED's are always cool, put them on everything!!
now, if only i was mature enough not to laugh and giggle at that innuendo..
hehe =]

How exactly are you pretty sure that there are devices out there for other night time encounters? Got any links?

I am sure that if you only enlarge the diameter of the shaft size it could accept, it could then be used for both types of activities! Or maybe 7/16ths is already enough for some.

7/16ths? Mine was thicker even before I hit puberty.

if you find yourself needing a flashlight for successful "night time encounters", maybe you need to sit back and figure out what you are doing wrong first. :)
