Looking to light your campsite, balcony, patio, bedroom, or the back of your TV? Power Practical has you covered.
The flagship of Power Practical’s lineup is the Luminoodle Basecamp, a twenty foot long (!), 3000 lumen (!), waterproof, illuminating rope with lighting modes that would make a gaming keyboard blush. The BaseCamp is waterproof and includes plugs for both AC outlets and car sockets, plus numerous straps and magnets to cover any hanging scenario.
I installed the Basecamp on my balcony railing, and am going to need another one for camping. Bring along something like the Anker PowerHouse, which we’ll be covering soon, to keep it going for ridiculous amounts of time.
The significantly cheaper Luminoodle Color is 1/4th the length of the Basecamp, 450 lumens, and powered via USB. That opens up a huge number of ways to power the color, from external battery packs to solar panels to camping stoves.
Beyond outdoor uses, the Luminoodle Color is a great option for accent lighting in places like your bedroom or under your desk- places you probably already have spare USB ports. For gamers already rocking RGB light shows on their mice, keyboards, headsets, and mouse pads, under-desk RGB lighting will blend nicely.
Bias lighting is one of our most popular product categories on Kinja Deals, and Power Practical’s take is the best we’ve used, with all the lighting modes from the rest of the Luminoodle collection in tow.
One of the weird quirks of bias lighting is that most options turn on whenever your TV does, including middle of the night firmware updates. Luminoodle’s bias lighting has a remote to shut it off if/when you need to.

One of the weird quirks of Power Practical products is that while their remotes are very responsive, everything uses the same signals. This is great if you want to control multiple products at once at a campsite, but you can imagine scenarios where you might want to turn off your headboard lighting but not your bias lighting.
We’ll also be checking out Power Practical’s Sparkr products as soon as we can get our hands on them.
