I bought this on ebay for $15 dollars as my wife and daughter are going to be heading to wheatland for the yearly event which happens to be out in the country without any grid power. After seeing this and trying it I realize what a great buy this is. I mean really.
Hell, it would cost more then the 15 dollars that I paid for this just to replace the batteries in a regular light just once!
It also comes with a cell phone and iPod charger as well as the cord, an am/fm radio
16 bright white LEDS power the light off this and they are bright.
If you guys need something even if just for an emergency pick up one of these. You never have to worry about it working or not and in an emergency…..Heck, throw one in your wifes car just in case of that flat tire or car trouble in the middle of the night.
Here is a very nice addition to the renewable energy projects. Its a cheap (under $10 at CVS pharmacy) very bright flash light and AM/FM radio.
To use this simply crank the handle a couple of time and you have up to 30 minutes to use the light or listen to the radio. Need more time? Just crank it a couple of more times and get all the power you need.
This is great for emergencies and its always available unlike its now old ‘traditional’ flashlight.
Think the light is not bright enough? You better think again. The ultra bright white LEDS are like nothing I have ever seen in any flashlight, much less a traditional flashlight.
Once I tried it for the first time I can tell you that I will NEVER use another flashlight again unless its crank powered.
Here are some pics of it. They are rather large.
Take this ANYWHERE with you. Put it in your car, motorhome, or just in the kitchen drawer in case of the power outages that often happen during storms.
You will spend more then the cost of this (under 10 bucks) then you would to buy just one battery to replace the dead ones that are in your current flashlight.
Need a free energy generator that can power almost anything?
Check this hack out! Using adapters you can charge and use this free energy for anything including your cell phone.
I purchased 12 of the walkway solar lights like you find at lowes or menards for around $40-50 bucks, then ripped them apart to make lights for inside my home. The lights are charged by the sun and only come on when its dark outide.
The small LEDS are very bright. When first you look at the bulbs you might think yourself, what the hell is that going to light?
That is what I thought when I first seen the bulbs however one just needs to light one up to see what I mean.
These small LEDS are actually brighter then a store bought night light.
Due to the fact that the photo sensor and small solar panel are out doors, the light is on the inside of the house and only comes on when its dark outside and then off when its daylight out. (used to charge the battery)
One could also wire these in series to get even more voltage for larger lights. Very cool.
There is almost NO maintenance to these. The only thing that could “go bad” might be the re-chargeable battery. If this happens just replace the battery with another re-chargeable and you are on your way again.
Here is a nice little tip for you out there that want to save huge on your electric bill….starting next month.
The most common 60 watt light bulbs put out more heat then they do light. Light would be like a secondary product of the bulb. When ever you create heat using electric it will cost you on your bill every month.
With the bulbs available today you can get more light from one bulb, it will last 10 times longer and it will cost you less then half of what you are paying EACH month on your electric bill.
Check out the video to see how this can save you huge bucks on your light bill.
Those of you that run wind generators or solor panels can also use these to use less of what you are already getting for free from the earth…..allowing for you to use more for other things.
