From iZoom®, our light source of choice, comes this tiny flood that lights way above its weight. Hard to believe (but true) that such a small package is rated for a staggering 500 lumens with (21) white LEDs that have a 30,000-hour life. It’s also indoor/outdoor weatherproof! Measures just 5” x 3-1/8” x approx 1-1/4” with a booted power switch and gasketed battery compartment for the (3) included “AA”s. Includes an adjustable C-bracket for hanging, standing or mounting to the included 4” x 5” base. Should run for a steady 2-1/2 hours on fresh batteries.

The CamJam XT is a clever cast-aluminum rope-tightening tool and carabiner. Has a 7/8” ID carabiner hook at one end, and a 1-1/4” toothed ratchet at the other. Made to take braided rope between 1/8” and 3/8”. Has a working load limit of 500 lbs, and a break strength of 1500 lbs. Measures 4” x 1-3/4’ x 7/8”. Marked “not for climbing.”

These non-fog not-really-welding goggles are just what you need to cap off your costume. Sure, the flip-up dark lenses are too dark to see through easily (that's why they have conventional clear plastic lenses underneath them), but leaving them flipped up just adds to your zany, adventurous, steampunk persona. Aesthetics include side vents and an adjustable elastic head strap. And the goggles accept standard 50mm replacement lenses, but if you think the party is going to be that rough, we suggest that it would be cheaper and easier to just buy a couple of pairs at this price-from-the-past.

We named it for Billy, our very own social media maven, but the manufacturer, iZoom®, calls it a Security Flashlight.

On a 6" wrist strap, it comes with (3) “AA” batteries.

Has thumbscrews to adjust the forehead strap and angle of the face guard. Not impact or heat resistant, so pay heed to the “antispray mask” on the tape at the top, and don’t use it like safety glasses or a bump cap.

From the Duck Tape® people, this 10” x 4-1/4” sheet of glow-in-the-dark, peel-and-stick tape patch will suck up light and charge itself with glow-in-the-darkability in approx 30 minutes, after which it will glow in the dark for approx 3 to 4 hours. Makes your wonder, doesn’t it?

Plastic safety goggles with a clear, fairly hard single pane front. The wrap around is clear, and the top and sides have dozens of little holes for ventilation. The whole is big enough to fit over regular glasses comfortably. An elastic strap holds them in place. Made in China.

The boys in the back room called this IZoom Pro™ flashlight ludicrously bright, and they’re usually right.
