illumibite Launches on Kickstarter: The Only Flashlight Built To Bite

Clinton, NJ - July 17, 2025 - If you've ever tried to work in the dark while awkwardly juggling a flashlight-or worse, clenching one in your teeth-you know how frustrating that can be. Enter illumibite, the world's first dual-use flashlight that delivers true hands-free lighting without straps, clamps, or hard plastic bite hacks.

Launching now on Kickstarter, illumibite is a compact, ultra-durable flashlight designed to solve a real problem: giving you focused light when your hands are busy and your workspace is tight.

"Let's be honest-most of us have had to hold a flashlight in our mouths at some point," says Dan Leask, Founder of illumibite. "Whether you're under a sink, fixing your car, or up in an attic, you need both hands. illumibite is the tool I always wished I had-and now it's here."

A Real-World Solution for Real-World Work

Dan, who owns Solar Pest Solutions, often works in awkward, confined areas installing critter guards on rooftop solar panels. Traditional headlamps didn't cut it-they slipped, fogged up, and interfered with safety gear. And holding a flashlight in his teeth? Not exactly safe-or sanitary.

So Dan and his wife, Jordan, built something better: a compact, tough, dual-function flashlight designed to go from tool belt to hands-free in seconds.

Two Modes. One Smart Tool.
illumibite adapts to you. Use it as a traditional flashlight-or go hands-free instantly.

Hands-Free Mode: The soft, ergonomic bite grip fits comfortably in your mouth-modeled after a sports mouthguard for a clean, safe, and jaw-friendly grip. It keeps light aligned with your line of sight without interfering with helmets, hats, or gear.

Handheld Mode: Snap on the protective mouthpiece cover to convert illumibite into a sleek, palm-friendly flashlight-perfect for traditional use, toolboxes, or everyday tasks. The cover not only shields the bite grip from dust and debris, but also enhances grip and comfort during handheld use.

"illumibite is two tools in one," says Jordan. "You don't need a headlamp and a flashlight-it does both, and it does them better."

A Better Way to Work-Without the Extra Gear
Unlike clunky headlamps or DIY bite-light workarounds, illumibite is purpose-built for tradespeople, mechanics, first responders, outdoor pros, and serious DIYers. It's also ideal for stagehands, camera operators, and AV technicians-anyone who needs precise, unobtrusive lighting in tight or light-sensitive environments.

Whether you're fixing a fuse, crawling under a deck, or checking cables backstage, illumibite gives you focused light exactly where you need it-without getting in the way or creating distractions.

"This isn't flashy tech," says Jordan. "It's practical innovation. illumibite helps people do what they already do-just safer, faster, and with fewer compromises."
