Just saw one on the "telly" last night.  Apparently, it isn't prone to 
"jumping" into the toilet like regular adjustable wrenches!  ;)  [you'll 
see the ad sooner or later]

It looks like one of those dumb things they advertise the crap out of 
around Xmas for clueless gift giving people to buy for the handyman in 
their life -- who will smile and say "you shouldn't have" -- and mean it!

Thankfuly, I haven't seen any ads for the "Snake Light" yet this season! 
woo hoo!  Maybe they finally put that stupid thing to rest.
