I’m starting to think that every portable device should be rechargeable via USB. I’ve got plenty of them on the front of my PC, and it saves me from crawling around and plugging things into my power strip. That’s exactly why I’m liking this simple USB Chargeable Mini Flashlight.

This tiny torch uses a white LED to provide a bright light in dark places. All you need to juice it up is to plug it into an available USB port for 1.5-2 hours. You should then have enough power to run it for over two hours, which should hopefully be long enough to  get you through a power outage. The best part is that if you do need to recharge it during an outage, you can still use a laptop (as long as the battery on it is still charged). This tiny gadget comes with a tiny price, at just $7.
