I doubt many people carry a device with a USB port when they go camping*, but still, there must be a small percentage of peeps that will be delighted with a USB Camping Lamp, besides providing some light it also includes a FM radio so you don’t have to listen to the nature – how boring is that?
The antenna on this radio is retractable, it has a 3,5mm earphone jack and auto scan/reset features.
Now for the good part: it can be powered with 3AA batteries if there isn’t a USB port anywhere.
Available at USBGeek for $12.
