Product Description
Flashlight batteries always seem to die at the worst possible times, with replacement batteries nowhere to be found. The Wind 'N Go flashlight eliminates this problem with its ingenious wind-up technology. Winding up the flashlight generates power in the rechargeable battery so that you never have to change it. One minute of winding gives you about 60 minutes of light. The flashlight has three super-bright LED bulbs; the off-on button allows you to use all three LEDs for high illumination or just one for low illumination. LEDs are designed to be more reliable, durable, and long-lasting than regular flashlight bulbs, which means you can depend on this crank flashlight in real emergencies like hurricanes and power blackouts.

4 out of 5 stars Buena calidad a bajo precio   August 4, 2008

Wind'N go flashlight es un excelente producto para solucionar problemas de iluminación en cualquier parte. Tiene 2 modos de operación: en uno de ellos enciende solo un led y en el otro encienden los 3 leds. Tiene un haz de luz blanca muy últil para trabajos caseros aun cuando olvidaron incluir una argolla para facilitar colgar la linterna.

La carga por 1 minuto le ofrece una operación razonable de unos 30 min, luego, es un buen producto muy útil en el carro y en trabajos caseros.



5 out of 5 stars Best I've tried   July 28, 2008

I've tried a couple of the other brands of crank flashlights, and this is by far the best I've tried. I bought two of these for work, but needed to buy a few more. These were out of stock and looked like they were going to be discontinued, so I purchased a couple other brands. I promptly sent the other brands back because they just didn't compare. It's comfortable in the hand, the handle folds away securely (unlike some of the other brands where the handle keeps popping up), and it actually has pretty bright output for a long period of time. I usually give it a couple cranks before I turn it on every time I use it, so I don't quite know yet how long it will last on one charge, but I went as long as 40 minutes once without losing any brightness. No complaints about it yet after a few months of use. Excellent product!

At first i thought this would be really cool. Unfortunately, the gears inside are not put together tightly enough, causing them to skip. Eventually, the crank stops cranking cause the teeth are all stripped.


4 out of 5 stars Reasonably bright, simple to use   June 29, 2008
David Price (Dallas, TX USA)
I use this every day when I take the dogs outside in the dark, and it works reliably. It's fairly compact and can be put in your pocket. I was using a different LED flashlight before, one that you shake, and it was not bright enough. The Wind 'N Go flashlight is much brighter than the old LED flashlight, not quite as bright as a Maglite flashlight, but not having to replace batteries in the Wind 'N Go is a nice trade-off.

The crank is easy to turn. It is a little noisy when being cranked.

It has one button operation, which is simple but a little quirky. Each time it is turned on, it either lights one LED for power saving, or it lights three LEDs for more brightness. It alternates between the two modes, so if it turns on in the wrong mode, you have to turn it off and on again. If you always want to use it in one mode, you have to turn it on and off and on each time you use it.



5 out of 5 stars great idea!!!   June 21, 2008

The first thing I like about this flashlight is not having to worry about throwing batteries away and not having to recharge batteries all the time. I can wind up the flashlight and it works for a while (several hours) it gives me a good light and I can "recharge" it at a moment's notice without having to wait for electricity.
i know it will save me money in the long run because I will not have to buy batteries and will also save the environment.
Thanks. It is a great product!!!
