Considerations Before Buying a Batteryless Flashlight
The development of the batteryless flashlight has ended the all too familiar situation of reaching for a flashlight in an emergency to find out the batteries are dead.  However be aware that all batteryless flashlights may need to be shaken for 3 minutes to reestablish a totally dead light its initial charge.

Our Larger and Medium sizes have a "capacitor" (an electrical device that stores electricity) in it to store the electricity generated by the magnet and coil.  The good point about these flashlight is that 100 years from now it will still work as good as it does today since there is NOTHING to wear out or go "dead".  The down side is that once it’s totally discharged (in about 4-6 weeks on non-use) it takes an initial “AS FAST AS YOU CAN” shaking of 3 minutes to recharge the capacitor.  This 3 minute recharging will not be necessary if you use the light frequently and give a a 30 second shaking once a week). 

Our Mini Size light still has the magnet and coil to generate electricity but it also has a lithium battery in it to hold any charge you give it.  The good thing is that a year from now it will still hold most its charge and you will have instant light (without the 3 minute recharging of the capacitor), the bad thing is that when the lithium battery goes dead (in 7-10 years) the flashlight will probably not work anymore.
 

WHICH ONE IS BETTER?  Neither one is "better" than the other.  If you will not mind the 3 minute shaking if the light lays unused for 6 months the Large or Medium ones is probably the one you want.  If you insist on instant light even after 6 months of a year on non-use...the Mini one is the one you want.

Tips for a Brighter Light
Getting a brighter light out of your flashlight is easy and depends on 2 things:
1. How long you shake it
2. How fast you shake it
Faster is better and "as fast as you can shake it and as long as you care to shake it" is even better yet if you want to maximize your lights performance.  You can not "over charge" or "over shake" any of our lights.

Another tip is that shaking the flashlight horizontally (left and right) will product a quicker charge than shaking in vertically (up and down)
