David Weeks is at it again. That clever designer who brought you devilish desk lamps, funky floor lamps, and crazy chandeliers, now brings you the 2-way candlestick holder LED flashlight. Yup, when you dinner party goes awry and you need to throw a beam of light rather than cast some light, just flip your $40.00 candlestick holder over and use the embedded LED as a flashlight. Presumably, you wouldn’t have a burning taper in the holder when using the flashlight. Also, there is no comment on the environmental economy of using 3 AA batteries versus a candle.—Dave Prochnow
