Rustek Apollo 2 Crank-Powered Flashlight-Radio
 
Even a caveman can do it
By Dr JVerified Reviewer from Cedar Rapids on 06/15/2009
Pros:
Spare Bulb
Cons:
Dim, Light duty pun intended
Best Uses:
Car Camping
Describe Yourself:
Casual Adventurer
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Not a bright floodlight, but ok for light duty emergency backup in home or car. So just turn it around and crank it if your lefthanded, quit complaining about the righthanded world conspiracy.

Not as cheap as I expected

Bright, Durable, Rubberized exterior, Stable
Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:
Casual/ Recreational
Bottom Line:

Comments:
I was pleasantly surprised to find this flashlight covered in a rubbery outer, rather than just cheap plastic as it looks in the picture. It's a nice little flashlight and the radio functions well. The light on the handle is only a red flasher, though, and I thought it was like a lantern bar. Great 4 keeping in the car or basement 4 emergencies. Not too big, not too small.

Inconsistant charging

Difficult to Use, Ineffective
Describe Yourself:

Comments:
I have a solio but since the appalachian trail is mostly forested I needed something to be able to charge my phone with for emergencies so I purchased this. This dynamo seemed like a good idea but it is not very effective. While turning the crank it will be charging the phone one second and not the next. This is not a very good product because it really doesn't work, at least the one I recieved doesn't.

This flashlight is a great idea, but the winding handle is the weakest part and feels as if it will break off easily. Also, the light on the handle doesn't make sense: would be better if on top or side.
