This flashlight can create fire and light

Your next camping trip may get a little more high-tech.

The Sparkr is a new Kickstarter project that is getting a lot of attention.

It’s a flashlight that is also a lantern and can create fire as well.

According to the company that makes it, Power Practical the high-intensity plasma lighter creates an electrical arc rather than a flame.

It works in wind, rain and snow.

For safety, it will only activate if you press the button three times in a row.

It’s fully rechargeable, with a USB port hidden under the head of the flashlight.

There is even a smaller pocket-size one, if that works better for your lifestyle.

The full-size Sparkr will set you back only $50, and the mini is just $30.
