Yeah, but on the other hand it would shadow what I'm gripping, and the lights on the fingers make them stand out further and make getting them into tight spaces more difficult...
Ya my pops has macular degeneration he'd probably love this but I've already inundated him with head lamps, telescoping lighted magnifying glasses, etc lol.
Anytime you need to use your hands but still need to see what you're doing. I can think of dozens of times I've needed a light to work on something with both hands in a badly lit area but didn't have someone to hold the flashlight.
That said, I'd probably want the battery pack somewhere else because I could see that being an issue hooking on things, especially in tight spots.
I totally see it but I feel like the same spaces where you need more light to see your hands and can't use a light are those where you can't fit extra stuff in with your fingers, if you get my thought.
Ya, that's why the battery pack placement isn't ideal in my opinion. I can't even count how many times I've busted a watch band because it hooked on something. Mind you I have bigger hands, maybe it works out better for those who don't.
Sort of... a lot of the time it's getting the light at the right angle and keeping it there that's the issue. Especially when working on vehicles. Gloves like this would help in that regard, but have their own set of issues to deal with.
My boss got me one for working inside control cabinets. As you usually have to have to power cut when poking around in a cabinet, lighting has to be supplied externally.
They could theoretically be decent for some car work where the body of the car shades everything.
They're better in idea than reality. 6/10
Also think of them as a supplement to a headlamp. Since your hands frequently shade what you're actually touching, these help supplement light right on the region of a hand shadow.
I could think of a million use cases just for a flexible flashlight alone. Every engine bay on modern cars is jam packed with shit or the space has been cleared for a crumple zone.
I don't even know when you would need this?

I need these so I can look at my wifeโs kidneys.
First one that makes sense, SatansMaggotyCumFart.

Wouldn't a headlight do the trick?

And this would have been a better solution than a headlamp?
