The Forever Flashlight !!

Never needs batteries. Just shake it and it lights up.

Perfect for Emergencies.

Have you ever fumbled in the darkness for a flashlight during a power outage, only to discover that your batteries were dead? You'll never have to worry with the Forever Flashlight. That's because it doesn't require batteries. Just shake it and you'll have bright light. Imagine the money you'll save by not having to replace costly batteries.

The flashlight is one of the most important emergency lifesaving devices ever created. Think about it. Have you ever seen a policeman, fireman or medic without their flashlight? Not likely. Now you can have one of the most needed emergency products ever in the most reliable way.

Imagine exploring the attic or crawling under the house to fix something without fear of ever running out of light. Leave it unused in your car's glove compartment for years with complete peace of mind. No need to worry about light if your car dies during a dark and stormy night. You'll be in great shape, even if you have to signal for help in the pouring rain. A flashlight that never needs batteries, replacement parts, or bulbs for that matter.

If only everything in life were as reliable as the Forever Flashlight. Now *that's* peace of mind.

How does this thing work w/out using batteries? Solar?

Not solar. It was demonstrated in this MadTV sketch:

I've owned two of these "Shake flashlights". They suck. The moment you stop shaking them, and start to actually use them, the light goes out.

Most of these flashlights actually DO have a battery, just a permanently-installed rechargable battery. When you shake the flashlight, it charges the battery. When you turn on the flashlight, it drains the battery. Well, guess what happens when the battery gets old? That's right, these flashlights become useless.

I've got some better ones that have a squeezable hand-crank on them. They have fresh rechargable batteries too, so they actually work. But for how long? I don't know.

I have one, they come in handy in pinch. You have to shake it horizontally for 60 seconds, real fast short strokes and it will last for a couple minutes. Pain in the butt though, I virtually never use it.

They're not bad to throw in your car for an emergency. They're not practical for normal use, though.

I also have two and neither lasted long. One stopped working completely. And the other still works intermittently - not sure if it is a bad connection, the capacitor is bad, or what.

It is a great idea, just in this case you get what you pay for.

I'd much rather have something that would WORK in case of an emergency.

Thanks OP, but....

I bought one of these, exact same box and flashlight.

These flashlights are false advertising. They do have 2 button cell batteries in them. You are running off the batteries, shaking does put a little voltage into the batteries.. a tiny bit, . but once the 2 batteries are dead, shake the flashlight until you get shake-off shoulder, and you wont re-charge these now dead, non rechargeable button batteries.
