LOOP GEAR: Ultra Compact 360° Illuminating EDC Flashlight

EDC flashlights have chased the same two numbers for years: lumens and beam distance. But in real daily life you more often need ambient light for the whole campsite, a torch you can find instantly, and a little fidget-friendly fun. LOOP GEAR SK03 takes a different path: a 120m main beam handles scouting, while 360° all-around illumination floods the surroundings — one light for camping, night fishing, or car repairs. The low-intensity side light runs two years on a single charge for always-ready emergencies, and glow-in-the-dark panels make it locatable in pitch darkness. The 14500 battery has a built-in charge port, stays AA-compatible, and fast-charges via QC/PD in 1.3 hours. Pick aluminum, titanium or stainless steel; it's IP65 sealed, 1m drop-proof, with a two-way pocket clip. Best of all, pressing the side button reveals a pocket knife and bottle opener — a stress-relief toy and tool in one. Launched in September 2023, it drew 1,854 backers and about HK$1.08M (roughly $138K), a stunning ~107,923% funded.
