The places I like to travel to don’t always have reliable electricity. Hell, even Los Angeles has had its blackouts! Try to go to bed in a new hotel with no lights after a few cocktails & you’ll never travel without a flashlight either. And how many of us have gone to get that flashlight only to find the batteries are dead... god, that always happens at home but somehow my suitcases religiously finds the ‘on’ button in flight & then when I get there - dead! So now that I’ve found the dynamos, I’m in pure flashlight heaven... never worry about batteries again!
My Lewis & Clark dynamo flashlight lasts about 5hrs on 3 minutes of crankin’. If I could justify it at all I’d get the Hello Kitty one which also has a USB cell phone recharger, AM/FM radio, emergency alarm & compass... so many life-saving goodies wrapped up in utter pink curtness. A way less-cute one from Target also repels mosquitoes by emitting a sound that scares them off. Could be useful... but it's not Hello Kitty...
