Meet Curvyman, Senior Headset Cord Supervisor, Frustration Preventer Extraordinaire, and Your Future Best Friend. Made of durable, lightweight plastic, his unique physique was made for keeping unruly ear buds and headsets in order - literally! Pop one end of your cord through a hole at his base, wrap it up around his middle, clip the other end through the second slit at his top, and voila! Your cord stays tangle-free and organized when not in use. Or, just wrap the slack around his middle and keep your cord close-fitting and tidy while you're running, working, traveling, or otherwise on the go. Curvyman also comes with a size #0 plastic S-Biner attachment so you can clip him to your keys, backpack, purse or zipper pull and take him with you everywhere. (Which you will want to do, we promise!)

The Nite Ize ClipLit LED is a bright, water-resistant white light encased in a durable plastic housing and molded to a rugged plastic carabiner clip. Easy to activate - a quick twist turns it on and off - it's just as easy to clip onto and off of almost anything with a loop. Attach it to your key ring, belt loop, zipper pull, backpack or purse, and you'll have efficient, bright illumination wherever you are, whenever you want. The ClipLit is perfect for everything from reading fine print to finding a keyhole. And, when it's attached to your clothing, it's a fun and stylish way to let people know where YOU are when it's dark, increasing your visibility and safety.
