Never worry about a dead battery again – Crank Flashlights

Crank flashlights allow you to wind up your flashlight for say one minute and enjoy the energy of your efforts in the crank flashlight for 2 hours.

Of course, we know that flashlights are a safety item we should not be without.  One in the car, a couple in the house, one in the backyard, the garage, in your backpack, at the cabin or cottage, and even a mini- version in your purse.  The crank flashlight will come in handy when you need it the most, and fortunately all you need to do is wind er’ up!

What are the benefits?

For those of use concerned with the environment – there are not batteries to dispose of, and no electricity needed to recharge them either.  Humans simply use the power of kinetics to energize the flashlight by winding it up with your hand.  No need to insure you have extra batteries on hand, and you need never run out of power!

 There are other options:

If you prefer to use batteries, but have the option to wind up in case of battery failure, you can go for the dual option.  Or maybe you would like a radio or a compass attached:
Kaito KA404 Emergency Hand Crank Dynamo 5-LED Flashlight with AM/FM radio  Or if you want the phone plug option try Dorcy 41-4274 3 LED Dynamo Flashlight Radio with Phone Port.  Although you can now read the map in the pitch dark on the hiking trail, you may also want the back up of a compass: Kaito KA309 Wind-up 9-LED Flashlight with Compass

Whatever choice you make, the full on or the option for people powered, your gadget gets greener.

 The average crank flashlight weighs about a pound, so the cost for shipping is minimal.
