The flashlight/radio/alarm is a good idea but there are a few things that this one lacks. The light is not very bright and the flashlight control does not lock into the off/one light/three light positions very efficiently. I found that I thought the light was off but it was still on. Also, the cell phone charging feature which could be very helpful, does not work with usb connectors.

I bought this as a christmas present for my boyfriends parents. They are building a cabin up in northern michigan and I figured that this would make a great gift as well as help them be safe in case they got snowed in or lost power and needed an emergency light and radio. It turned out that they did need it during a snow storm and it really turned things around for them during that scary power outage. They absolutely love the gift. I think this makes a great gift for anyone to have in their cars or cabins for any emergency or power outage.

A crank flashlight that will do the job for getting you to "the john" on a camping trip. You can listen to the radio a bit and if you feel compelled to scare anything or anybody you can flip on the alarm. But, don't bother purchasing this to charge your Nokia phone. To charge a phone you will crank until your arm falls off and still not have much power.

It's "acceptable."

This flashlight works ok, but there are better ones out there for about the same price. After cranking for a minute you'll get some light, but the battery doesn't hold a charge very long. Good enough to store away for an emergency but I wouldn't want to have to rely on it very often.

What a surprising little flashlight. We were amazed at how crystal clear the radio is. Didn't expect that from a crank light. Works great. Perfect condition.
