#119: Spectacle headlamps

Today’s invention is: a battery-powered, bolt-on kit designed to fit all reading glasses and consisting of a couple of small led bulbs.

This would allow those of us with failing eyesight to be able to read in low-light conditions without scrabbling around looking for a separate head torch.

How’s that for a useful, yet low-tech, idea?

For those people inclined to lose their specs frequently, they could be made to flash in response to a ‘keyfinder’ or tv remote control device.

(I saw “Mission: Impossible” only after writing this, but their goggles look more like two torches bolted to one’s temples).
