For the guy out there who's tech-savvy and has a penchant for [clever accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-ai-jewelry), the iCufflinks can help him look his absolute best while catching the eye of anyone he passes. Fashioned to look just like a power button, iCufflinks have an illumination feature that will keep them [glowing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dbrand-circuit-board) for a whopping 72 hours on a single set of batteries.

With our culture becoming more and more obsessed with technology, iCufflinks are a geek-chic way to show off a little bit of [tech charm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/openear-earbud-concept) that some might label as gaudy or over-the-top. However, it's more likely that the little sparkling accoutrements will come to be the talk of the after party once the lights have gone down and they continue to glow.
