igadgitz Xtra 5m Waterproof Eco Rechargeable Solar & Hand Crank LED Torch Flashlight with 5 Year Warranty

I purchased 3 wind up emergency flashlights at my local hardware store, and have only used them infrequently. Unfortunately, even with light use, 2 out of 3 broke within a year or two. Since I really don't like to waste money on items that break so easily, I searched around a lot before getting this particular rechargable flashlight. It has an added bonus of having a small solar panel to help it charge, but the value I find it in is as simple as the feel of the flashlight in my hand. It's very sturdy and heavy. I can tell that it's parts are no where near as flimsy as the previously mentioned flashlights. This is a really tough little flashlight, and it's working great so far. The extended warranty from the company is reassuring. Great, bright light. Easy crank handle that has a good solid feel to it, easy to work. Tiny solar charger built in. Multifunction light (including flashing). If I had to stock a few more emergency kits, this would be my first choice for a flashlight.

I bought one to try it. I found it to be exactly what I had hoped for. It was smallish, meaning not huge like some of the products for solar are. It was not made of cheap plastic. The Crank worked well. The light was the most important thing. It was very bright for the size. I was worried that it would not light up well and I wanted a small solar light that I could pack well when I travel that would not be to heavy but that would be effective and light up an area. I wanted something that in an emergency would not need batteries and that if the solar ran out in the night, could be cranked to give sufficient light. I wanted to give these to my grandchildren for Christmas. My grandchildren are newborn to 17 years old. I wanted them to have their own lights in the night if the lights went out in a storm and that they could crank if the night was extra long and the solar went out. The light had to be bright enough to be effective for a child and also an adult. So I bought one for myself to first try. I was really impressed. I have carried it with me in my travels ever since as it is light, small, tough, and bright and charges very well by sun. I bought 23 more for the grandchildren. They are going to love them.

Nice shape and size. Solar not impressive, but crank might work. Have not used it a lot. Cant say if it will last. Light bright for short distance maybe 3 ft, but beyond that low illumination. If it was dark, and you were looking for a nut on the ground 5 ft down, not bright enough.

I have several of these type flashlights and this one seems to be best made. So far it works great and is durable and a little cranking gives quite a few minutes of light. I like this for camping and especially for emergency use where I dont have to worry about batteries. Highly recommend.

Excellent Flashlight - solar panel charges quickly and is very bright. I was replacing an LL Bean Solar/Wind up, where the on/off button rubber cover was no longer seating correctly. Smaller solar/wind up flashlights weren't bright enough, so I tried this - glad I did ! I use it for reading late at night , which means 1 (of 3) LED lights will be on for couple hours without winding - this one does it with plenty of charge to go ! Well made and sturdy -

Pretty handy. It can be a little brighter though.

We absolutely love this flashlight! It works so well and we are truly impressed. It provides good light for longer than I have ever seen for this type of flashlight. Others that we have used are more of a novelty and truly not that functional. This one is different and I love the fact that it is waterproof. You can get others that have more bells and whistles, but you will NOT be getting the quality flashlight that this one is.

I bought a few of these flash lights because our church was going on a mission trip to Haiti. The fact that they were water proof to rain exposure, hand crank to charge, and solar charging panel on light made it a must for out of the major city's was a plus. I kept one for my home emergency use or just grab it off the window sill to use. For its size it is rather bright and appears to be able to take a few bumps and keep going.

Excellente lampe d'appoint, plus lumineuse que ce que j'avais imaginé. L'autonomie de la batterie est plus que suffisante après une minute de charge. L'option de pouvoir utiliser l'énergie solaire me paraît superflue puisque la manivelle est largement suffisante et beaucoup plus efficace. Lampe utilisée dans des conditions humides sans le moindre problème. Semble relativement solide même si des craquements se font entendre lors de l'utilisation de la manivelle. À voir sur le long terme...

Elle n'éblouit pas les yeux mais éclaire et vous n'aurez jamais à acheter des piles. Tournez la manivelle (très fonctionnelle) et votre lampe torche éclaire à merveille. La bonne taille permet de la mettre dans la poche. Ni trop grande ni trop petite. Ce n'est ps un gadget. C'est un objet bien pensé et très utile.

Buena calidad de construcción, perfecta para no quedarte tirado sin baterías. En la parte inferior tiene una dinamo para poder recargarle la batería, en el otro lado integra un pequeño panel solar, la dejamos bajo la luz solar y la tenemos lista para usar. Es sumergible hasta 5 metros. Tiene 3 modos de encendido, 1 led, 3 leds o los 3 leds intermitentes. La potencia de los leds de la linterna es bastante básica, está más bien pensada para alumbrar a poca distancia, también te puede sacar de un apuro en casa si se va la luz. Está bien construida y parece robusta, quizás resulta algo grande teniendo en cuenta la potencia de los leds.

Reasonable weight and has a good solid feel about it, also the charging handle seems strong enough. It’s not a powerful beam but it’s certainly good enough for emergencies.

Acquista come regalo per mio figlio di 4 anni quando siamo in campeggio o semplicemente per giocare a casa, di dimensioni non troppo eccessive e dal peso bilanciato, permette di caricare a manovella utilizzando la dinamo, molto istruttivo anche per i bambini. La carica poi sembra inesauribile e strutturalmente pronta a riceve botte e cadute. Molto utile anche da tenere in auto senza doversi preoccupare di avere le batterie cariche, con una decina di giri si hanno tranquillamente 40 minuti di luce,......
