# Double-Trouble Flashlights The Nightlighter Lights the Space In Front and the Ground By Akihiko Tse | Published 2013-09-30 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-nightlighter References: [fancy](http://fancy.com/things/447658349580779913/Nightlighter-Dual-Beam-Flashlight) & [firststreetonline](http://www.firststreetonline.com/Home) The Nightlighter is a flashlight that has the well being of your feet in mind as much it has your directional sense. Priced at $19.95, the Nightlighter is a [wide-coverage LED illumination device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arkpro-series) that lights up the space ahead of you, as well as below you so you remain equally aware and vigilant of any obstacles that eluded the first shine of defense. The light is an ergonomic and lightweight design that comes with a handle, eliminating the need to lift it above your sides. The front-facing lightbulb is a narrow-angled beam that uses four [ultra bright 5mm white LEDs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sk05-pro-blue-led), while the down-facing wide-angled beam uses two bright 5mm white LEDs to illuminate the ground and your feet. The Nightlighter can also be adjusted so only one light is shining at one point. To improve the flashlight's weight distribution, the battery is located below the user's hand, deviating from the sapping designs of conventional flashlights where the battery is found away from the hand. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 21% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Dual-direction Flashlights:** Opportunity for innovative flashlights that provide illumination in multiple directions for enhanced safety and awareness. - **Ergonomic Flashlight Designs:** Potential for flashlights with improved handle designs that offer comfort and ease of use for users. - **Weight-optimized Flashlights:** Possibility to develop flashlights with battery placement that optimizes weight distribution for user convenience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Outdoor Equipment:** Opportunity for the outdoor equipment industry to create innovative flashlights for hikers, campers, and adventurers. - **Safety and Security:** Potential for the safety and security industry to incorporate dual-illumination flashlights for improved emergency preparedness. - **Home Improvement:** Possibility for the home improvement industry to offer ergonomic flashlights with enhanced handle designs for DIY enthusiasts and professionals. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flexible Orientation Camper Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flexit-pocket-light.md) - [Handheld High-Performance Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitecore-edc29.md) - [Smart Safety Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timeli-flashlight.md) - [Convenient Multi-Purpose Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dark-fade.md) - [Durable Dual-LED Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olight-seeker-4-mini.md) - [Long-Range Laser Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumitwin-dl700.md) - [Job Site-Friendly Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackdecker-snake-light.md) - [High-Power Dual Barrel Flashlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dualbarrel-edc.md) - [Waist-Worn Runner Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitecore-ut05-waist-light.md)
