NEWS – It’s always a good idea to have a flashlight with you at night to help you see where you are going and to help others see you. Sometimes, carrying a flashlight can be difficult, though. Sometimes you may need to keep your hands free, if you’re running, riding a bike, or walking your dog, for example. With the MangataLites gloves, you can wear two LED lights on the backs of your hands, leaving your hands free.
The MangataLites are low-profile, breathable hand-slings, fingerless gloves, and mittens which have an LED light stowed in pockets on the back of each hand. The lights illuminate an ultra-bright, 135-degree arc up to 30 feet ahead of you. The brightness adjusts from 40 – 80 lumens. And on a single charge, each light can shine for 48 hours of use. The gloves are weather-resistant and lightweight, with a built-in reflective strip for increased visibility and safety. A pocket on the palm holds a key or some money.
The Hand-Slings are made of polyester and spandex. They provide minimal coverage of your hands for use in warmer weather, or you can wear them over your favorite winter gloves. They are available in a variety of colors and in two sizes for $34.95.
The Rechargeable Lighted Gloves are made of polyester, terrycloth, and spandex (shown in top image). The terrycloth thumb is designed for wiping away moisture. They are available in five sizes and a variety of colors for $38.95.
For cold weather, choose the polyester fleece Rechargeable Lighted Mittens. They are available in three sizes and a selection of colors. The mittens are $46.95.
All three styles of MangataLites lighted gloves are available at The Grommet.
