Crank Powered Radio Flashlight $12.99 Shipped!

[WENEEDLIGHT]

Every household should have one of these! LINK
Bought one just in case if there's a natural disaster.. eg. tornado, hurricane, earthquake ..... you get the idea.

Great gift idea. Is it made in China or the USA?

I picked up a crank radio and a crank flashlight at Walmart last night for $10.88. Just FYI.

This is appears to be a fake product. "2 way power options (Crank the Internal battery or 6V AC adaptor (NOT Included))". It has an internal battery. If the cranking were truly doing anything you would not need an internal battery. The real crank/shaking powered flashlights don't. Here is a link to a similar item exposed: http://aperturequiet.blogspot.com/2006/08/tales-from-99-store.html

Oxides, if your car does not have an internal battery for storing electricity when the engine is running, tell me and i'll buy it from you. if the crank flashlight does not have an internal battery, how can it keep it on? tell me! i already have my cranked-powered flash light (no radio) too, it has an internal battery stored inside. Save me a lot of money buying AA batteries.

Re Oxides, the sample u showed is a shaking powered flashlight. totally different structure from the cranking ones.

The radio in this product is FM only. In emergency situations, AM radio is probably better.

My sister bought a cranking flashlight similar looking to this one http://cgi.ebay.com/Hand-Crank-Dynamo-3...ht_W0QQitemZ290019523399QQcmdZViewItem
Once the battery lost charge, it stopped working, cranking did nothing. I opened it up and the crank resistance mechanism isnt connected to anything.

Send me your contact info in PM and ill contact her about you buying that from her. I think she paid about 25 bucks for it.
