POS July 9, 2008 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.
Reasonably bright, simple to use June 29, 2008 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.
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!!!
Wind N Go Flashlight June 19, 2008 The flashlight performs exactly as I had hoped. Very good light, easy to crank and decent lasting charge from 1 minute of cranking.
You may sacrifice a little bit of brightness but you will save HUGE on batteries. Anything that works without batteries is a great thing and this definatley works!
Wind and Go review April 26, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This product works as advertised. Very easy to wind, stays lit for hours and, surprisingly, remained lit when I used it several days later (without winding). All in all very useful.
