Pogue's cheap and unexpected gifts: the Soi Handbag Light
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/pogues-cheap-unexpected-gifts-soi-handbag-light-175728229.html
Everyday jostling doesn’t turn it on; it lights up only when it senses the proximity of your hand. At that point, the light comes on for about 10 seconds. It’s powered by a pair of AAA batteries, which the company says lasts for 6,000 bag-foragings.
I think the company does itself a disservice by marketing the Soi exclusively to women for their handbags; I’ve tossed one into my Timbuk2 laptop bag and life has never been the same. For starters, since you’re not clutching a phone or a lighter, you now have both hands free to do your exploration.
