Since launching yesterday evening (Tuesday) at 6pm, the Kickstarter campaign has already raised almost £6,000, with more than 70 individual backers.

The Adaptalux Glow can seamlessly change between a flashlight and a light depending on how it is being used.

It has been designed to be a light that adapts to the user, with an array of setting and innovative features.

The company hopes this new product will be its next big success after three previous Kickstarter campaigns.
