Ultracaps still have very low energy densities compared to li-ion batteries.
I think you are located near the New Madrid Fault in Southern Missouri so, it might be handy to have this type of light. I am sure that the batteries were not available during Katrina & other Disasters.
Still, wouldn't a 123a light and some spares last you a long time and have a long shelf life too? I keep a P3D and 4 spare 123a in mine.
I have a similar crank light with the JEEP logo on it. Comes with the cable and multi tips for charginf phones and such.It stays in my BOB bag at work don't really know what the quality is bought it for a good price.
I love the idea of all "free" power technology and this one seems to be a really good step in the right direction.Being able to charge your gadgets off the thing is also really cool - certainly something I'd throw in the car or a BOB
Wahhhh...Wahhh. You got to do it to enlighten us poor boogers! Its your Duty..hehheh.
OK, maybe... If I ever reopen my sale thread and add the 15-20 lights I've been meaning to thin out of the herd, maybe then this one will inch closer to the top of the list...
