be battery free.

What type of energy can be used to power a flashlight that is not electric, solar, or battery? Here’s a hint: you’ve always possessed this power, but no, it’s not the power of intuition (we wish!). Give up or do you already know? It’s the power of your hands! Yes, hand-powered flashlights are now all the rage. Most come with either a crank to spin or a handle to squeeze – and in a matter of seconds, you’ve created enough energy for a beam of guiding light. If you live in a place where fall & winter storms make electricity power outages a common event, now is a great time to invest in a hand-powered flashlight. Keep one by your bed to ensure you’ll always have light nearby and never worry about changing the batteries again.
