comparisons:
The Luci and the LuminAid appear to be almost identical except for shape.
Luminaid lists theirs at 75 lumens while Luci doesn't give a lumen number. LuminAid has 12 LEDs, Luci has 10 but that's not saying they have the same brightness per light.
LuminAid can be recharged by either solar or AC or 12V as long as you have a USB adapter to plug it in. Luci is strictly solar.
Luci has clear plastic while LuminAid is translucent. I don't know which works better for an even light.
LuminAid has 1 more brightness level but just how many are needed anyway?
The specs say that Luci will charge in 7 hours while LuminAid takes 10 but LuminAid is supposed to give 6 more hours of burn time per charge. Do you need it faster or do you need it to last longer?
As for which works better, you'd have to try them side by side. I think a guy would be very happy with either. Some the new tech is great!
