My main use of this device is actually the usb charger. I have with me some power-hungry portable electronics, such as my PSP and my Droid phone, and some of their portability is negated by their limited battery power. Don't get me wrong, they'll last a good while on a full charge, but sometimes I'm not always in range of a power socket or car charger. This helps me out a great deal in this regard, and although not every device has a usb-friendly charge adapter, my Powermonkey-explorer kit ( Powermonkey eXplorer - Portable Charger with Solar Slave (Grey) ) expands that versatility greatly. The included battery has a female USB adapter which I can use to hook into my Clipray and charge up when the sun is down or on overcast days, and when a power socket is out of reach. These two products make a great team and have increased my satisfaction with both.
If you don't feel like dishing out $100 however, there are much cheaper standalone usb adapter kits out there as well.
Pros: - Power crank gives you a constant light source and USB power source for your portable electronics.
- Sleek, solid design ensures it will not fall apart easily.
- Featured clip makes it easy to attach to a belt strap, readily available when you're on the go.
- Cheap and affordable.
Cons: - 3 leds isn't much to work with, but they could have focused the light a bit better.
- External accessories (adapters/usb cords) required to unlock the full potential of this item, which may be to the dismay of some.
Overall: Great device, I'm extremely happy I could find a decent hand-crank USB charger, and the flashlight and clip are welcome additions. If you've got lots of power-hungry portable electronics, give this a look.
The pros of this include
1) Its affordable.
2) The light is plenty bright enough to be usable. Its very nearly as bright as my larger, much heavier battery-powered flashlights.
3) It does not take much cranking to be able to use the flashlight for 10-15 minutes.
4) The cranking mechanism/motion is not hard to use, and the unit has a nice grippable plastic exterior that helps.
5) The color is great. Petty, but I like it anyway.
6) The light stays on. Some led camping flashlights only let you have the light on while you're holding the button down.
7) The carabiner clip means you could attach the light above while you were working if you needed two hands (like if you were relighting your boiler).
8) It seems sturdy and well made. You could drop it and it would still work -- there are rubber "bumpers" that would absorb much of the impact.
9) It actually does charge my palm pilot and my boyfriend's blackberry.
10) Its reasonably light: 4.8 ounces, which makes it a viable option for camping, backpacking and travel.
The con? You would wear your wrist out trying to charge a cell phone with this. In an emergency situation, that's the least of your problems, but I spent 10 minutes cranking and saw no increased charge on my palm treo 650, though I was able to make two calls at a battery level that normally would have shut the phone down. The charging light on the phone only came on when I was cranking -- when I stopped turning the handle, the phone stopped charging, unlike the other reviewer here. Maybe I need a different usb charger, but this happened with both the treo and the blackberry. Still, it is a HECK of a lot better than having no way at all to charge either phone.
Again, I'm glad I got it, and I'll probably get another one. In an extended power-down situation, having basic items that do not require batteries or sunlight is a major plus. I wish there were more hand-crank gadgets, and I'll be playing around with whether or not I can use the usb charger on this to charge a battery... with some creativity you might (MIGHT) get a couple of these to actually power a thermoelectric cooler or some other very low-wattage devices.
This would be a great stocking stuffer/ small Xmas gift for someone who's into gadgets or emergency prep.
