Who, besides my husband, can get excited about a metal flashlight? I had never heard of one that costs almost $400 until he showed me the AE HID Powerlight. It bears little resemblance to the $3.50 ones you buy at a hardware store. The Powerlight doubles as a search and rescue light, and shine it in the eyes of an adversary (human or animal) and you’ll disorient them.
Pacsafe's carrysafe 100, 200 and 300 are all slashproof straps with anti-theft features. The slim carrysafe 100 is a neck strap that attaches to most SLR cameras, binoculars or their carrying cases. It has a cushioned, breathable neck pad, user-friendly disconnects so the strap can be quickly clipped to a camera case and neoprene sleeves covering joining clips. The carrysafe 200 is a cushioned, shoulder strap for carrying laptop cases. Each connecting end has screw-down locking metal nuts, which when tightened with the included wrench means the strap can not be quickly removed. The carrysafe 300 is the biggest strap, with a built-in 3-dial combination lock and a wire cable to feed through zipper pull so the bag can't be opened.
