TechnologyTell Review: Loftek 10W Outdoor Powerbank work lamp

Flashlights are super convenient, and the ThruNite T10S is part of my EDC (every day carry). But sometimes you need a light that can handle bigger jobs, especially when you need to work with both hands. Be it tinkering around in the garage or pitching camp in the middle of the night, a steady, reliable work lamp is going to be your best friend.

Design

The online pictures of the Loftek 10W Outdoor Powerbank work lamp are a bit misleading. It’s so much smaller than it looks! Either way, this work lamp is definitely made tough for outdoor use. Sure, it’s equally useful indoors or wherever a flood of light is needed. But you won’t need to worry about babying it against rain or mud.

Snug silicone gaskets and covers help prevent the ingress of water. Or worse. Aside from the parts that are meant to swivel, the Loftek 10W work lamp is put together well with no wiggly bits. The weight is balanced, so you’ll have to be setting the light down on a seriously uneven surface to have it tip over. The ends of the ‘feet’ have ridged plastic to provide traction. Scenarios such as working under a car hood or camping on a craggy boulder come to mind.

The Loftek work lamp LED can spin 360 degrees and arc up far enough to throw light vertically. You can illuminate practically anything you want from (almost) any angle. The side and bottom knobs tighten to hold position, keeping the light fixed. Thankfully, the rubber washers are pretty…

‘New’ Moto E is officially official with 4G LTE, larger screen, $150 unlocked price

In case you suspected Best Buy’s premature second-gen Moto E reveal was a hoax, the makers of the OG ultra-low-cost device just went ahead and confirmed the sequel. Which is more a rehash than a full-on upgrade.

But that shouldn’t come as a shock, since the 2014 Moto E is nine months or so of age, and besides, there’s really so much one can tweak in the sub-$150 price range….
