If your looking for a self charging light that will hold a charge, this is the one for you! It states that 60 seconds of winding will give you 1 hour of light. Well I ordered two of these flash lights and gave one to a friend. The first time I used mine I wound it up for about 20 to 30 seconds and turned it on to see how bright the light was and how long it would last. Well it was 6:00 pm when I first turned it on, it kept running and running. I finnally left it on and set it on the counter. Two hours later it was still running. I took it into my bedroom and set it on the dresser. I figured it would go out in no time. Well I checked it at 9:30pm and it was still running. At 10:00 pm I turned it off so I could go to bed. I have since pulled it out when I needed a light and guess what, IT STILL WORKS!!!!! My friend had the same results when he wound his up. Forget ever needing batteries again!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!

The handle fell off after 3 rotations. In order to get a non-defective one it would cost us the price of shipping to return the defective one.

I purchased several Dynamo's this Christmas; three for woman to use in their cars for emergencies, and one for myself, because I got tired of needing a flashlight, only to discover that the batteries were dead. No more!

I purchased this about a month ago and I have to say that I was very disappointed with it. First off the flashlight is enormous! Also, it's not very bright at all. When I received it there was a slight charge so I used it until it died and then cranked it up and it lasted for about 2 weeks on the one charge. When it died I cranked it again and it lasted for about 2 days. After that It would give me about 10 seconds of light and then I'd have to crank it for another 2 minutes to get 10 more seconds. Even though it was only 10 bucks I don't think it was worth it. After this crapped out on me I bought a mini flashlight from LL Bean that ran on one double A and it gives me about 50 hours of light on one battery. Plus it is much brighter. Even though I have to replace the battery once a month it's worth it.
