Emergency Flashlight Recharges Cell Phones

electrilite-emergency_03.jpg Electrilite Emergency is a new hand-cranked emergency flashlight with a built in FM radio, an alarm and an outlet to recharge cell phones. (Thanks Mike).

To charge your phone, turn off all LED lights. Attach the correct cell phone adapter to the power cord and plug it into your phone. Then simply plug the other end of the power cord into the Electrilite EmergencyJ. Begin charging your phone by cranking the handle at a rate of approximately 2-3 cranks per second, which generates a steady 6.2 volts.

Three minutes of cranking will provide 2-8 minutes of talk time. However, continuous cranking will provide you with an endless supply of talk time.
