    Joby broke out of its mold last year with its first-ever flexible flashlight, but frankly speaking, the bulb on the end of it was downright bulky. A year later, we're looking at a far slimmer and far sexier model -- one that relies on Cree's XLamp XP-C LED bulbs in order to output 130 lumens of light in a pocket-friendly package. The Gorillatorch Blade is a rugged, tripod-equipped flashlight that boasts a rechargeable internal battery (USB or AC adapter) an aluminum chassis and an adjustable beam. She's also water and drop-resistant, but we aren't certain we'd be eager to push the boundaries there; at any rate, it's on sale now for $59.95, and yes, the DIY mechanic in your life could definitely use a couple. %Gallery-104401%
