Guide Review - RotoGlo Self-Powered LED Flashlight

My father-in-law gave me one of these for Christmas. I immediately thought how great this would be for camping. It's about the size of a cell phone, it's lightweight, and it requires no batteries. A few turns of the crank provides all the energy needed to light either 1 or 3 LEDs. An ideal emergency flashlight for backpackers, boaters, or campers. It also fits conveniently in a drawer, glove box, or tool box. Never worry again about needing a flashlight only to find out that the batteries are dead or the bulb has burned out. The RotoGlo comes with a lifetime guarantee. If it ever fails to operate, simply return it for a free replacement. Cost: $19.99
