I love it when someone takes a standard idea and puts an interesting new spin on it. Such is the case with the tome-like Lumio Lamp, a Kickstarter project. This object opens up like an accordion into a pleasantly bright lamp, which can run for eight hours continuously on a single charge. It's charming, aims to be eco-friendly, and thanks to the magnets built into the cover, it can potentially be mounted in all sorts of places.

The Lumio has completely blown away its funding goal already, but there are still a couple weeks left to show your support.
