Don't Need a Hand With This Light: HUGlight

NOT ALL RUNNERS dig reflective vests for evening jogs — even if they can, you know, save your life. So HUGlight ($14.95) is hoping the holdouts will want a dual-headed bendy flashlight instead.

The idea is that two bright LED bulbs can point wherever you wish without requiring you to use your hands. So, in theory, you could wrap one of these around the back of your neck and have instant mini headlights. (Or taillights, if you don it the opposite way.)
We had a problem with these scenarios, though: bouncing! We couldn't even go a quarter-mile without wanting to hurl the jiggly, wiggly nuisance to the ground. We experimented with wrapping it around our upper arm, which worked slightly better. But, really, you're better off in an ugly orange vest.
