Bike Porn - USB Rechargeable Bike Light!

 

It's hard to believe this doesn't already exist. Instead of digging around in a junk drawer, searching for a battery charger or fresh batteries, you can take the silicone casing off the Knog Boomer Rechargeable and simply plug it into any USB port to charge it.

This simple design idea has made this little light very popular on the cycling and tech blogs, which is pretty impressive since it isn't even available yet.  Why?  Because most people who bike commute have access to USB ports everywhere.  Simple, easy, and it just works.

Speaking of portable and USB ports, I'm wondering if Knog should add a memory chip to the light.  You could load it with music files, a JPEG of your favorite race hill profile, or pictures of your other bikes.  Knog could even develop a web interface that allows you to create your own flashing pattern or colors.

What would you keep on your USB bike light?
