So a few months ago there was this cool flashlight at Costco that doesn’t require batteries or to be plugged into a wall for charging. It’s the DuraPRO MegaBRITE. You just wind it up to charge it. The Costco deal was 2 for $20.00 and I figured they’ll be around for a while so I didn’t grab a set when I saw them. Bad move. Read on.
They were sold out when I went back a week later. Dammit. No cool flashlight for me.
Fast forward to this afternoon. My friend Philip gave me one. W00t!
Here is a picture of the blister pack:
I cranked it three times and left it turned on to see how long it would last. Well 4 hours later the thing is still glowing bright. From the reviews I’ve read, they can last up to 5-7 hours on just a few cranks. We shall see how long this thing can go.
