Brunton Glorb Extra Bright Lantern: A Bright Idea

brunton_glorb_led_lantern
We’re all for the gentle glow of fire light. It’s perfect for sitting down to a scary story or a s’more (preferably one with yummy natural marshmallows). But when it comes to things like prepping a campsite dinner or a nighttime “what were those strange noises” investigation, it’s nice to have something that will really light up your life.

Lit by LED, the choice for a greener glow, The Brunton Glorb Extra-Bright LED 1-Watt Lantern will light your path (or tent) at the press of a button. The LED is a more environmentally-friendly choice than traditional light bulb lamps or petroleum-derived kerosene options, and if you make sure to use rechargeable batteries, the eco-conscious element is even bigger.

Fanning the Heat Back into Your Home

EnergyheatheaterfanthermoelectricDaily Greenz #68

The oxymoronic ‘heater fan’ is putting the smile back on everyone’s face this winter. Powered by heat, these circulating fans utilize the heat from the stove or gas room heater to send heat out horizontally rather than vertically, resulting in faster, more efficient heating. The brilliance of this fan is that there is no operating cost involved since its thermoelectric module runs on heat alone. Simply set it on top of your stove- and voila!- you can dream that it’s summer again. Prices range from $50 to $150 at amazon.com and they are worth every penny in energy cost savings alone. Plus, they’re designed to last forever, so pick one up before the chill sets in.
