Eco LED Flashlight Shines Bright

The Eco Led Flashlight is a great addition to any homemakers or campers lighting arsenal. It is not one bit bulky or awkward and it also comes with several options to charge it.

The Package

The Eco LED Flashlight came packa
ges in your standard cardboard box with a nice little transparent window so you can get a look at the flashlight itself. It also lays out some very detailed specs for all of the technical fans out there.

Eco LED Flashlight Package

Inside the Eco LED Flashlight?s package I found a nice handful of adapters , a car charger, warranty card, a manual, and of course the flashlight. The creators of the Eco LED Flashlight really made sure the user had most an adapter for most any cell phone out there.

The Eco LED Flashlight was really well planed out. It comes equipped with a 180 degree pivoting head to make getting in those hard to reach places allot easier. The body of the flashlight has a pretty comfortable hand grip on both sides. Combined with its light weight (400g) and it?s wrist strap the flashlight would be easy to tote around all day.

Did I mention t he Eco LED Flashlight also comes with a clip on the back so you will never have to le
t it leave your side. The designers must of really wanted you to pick it up and hardly ever put it down.

The pull charging Eco LED Flashlight is powered by five ultra bright LED?s with an expected 50,000 hour life time. The charge that powers these five ultra bright (15,000 - 18,000mcd) LED?s is held in some Ni-MH rechargeable batteries enclosed in the flashlight. These batteries can power the flashlight for about 3 1/2 hours at best when using the 12v adapter.

Charging The Eco LED Flashlight

Now you can charge your new Eco LED Flashlight three different ways. Some are far more effective and will result in a bigger charge and longer use from that charge. But no matter what you will never be left high and dry since it can be charged via the rip cord.

The first method we will look at is using the Eco LED Flashlight?s ripcord. If you keep on yanking on that little S.O.B. for 1 full minute you will be able to use the flashlight for about 25 minutes. Keep on pulling on it for 3 total minutes and you will get about 35 minutes of life. And finally if you are really hyper you can go for 5 minutes and get 45 minutes of life out of it.

That does not make all that much since to me however but that is what the manual says. Why not just pull for 1 minute and use it for 25 minutes and then when it runs out pull for 1 more minute and get another 25 minutes of use. 2 minutes of pulling equals 50 minutes of use then? Some times it just pays to be lazy I guess.

The next method of using the Eco LED Flashlight is by plugging it in to your cell phone. Now your getting really lazy. The book says that for every five minutes use while plugged into your phone it will equal about ten minutes talk time. This also seems rather silly to me. Why in the heck would you want to use up your cell phone battery when you can just pull the cord for a minute?

The final method of charging your Eco LED Flashlight?s battery will yield you the longest charge. This of course is by plugging it into your car?s cigarette lighter. When using the handy 12V adapter included with the flashlight you can get a nice long charge. In fact you can run around in the woods at night or any other dark corner of the world for a whooping 1.5 - 3.5 hours until your Eco LED Flashlight goes dead. In which case you will have to pull that cord like mad so something will not sneak up on you.

Conclusion

All in all I have to say that the Eco LED Flashlight is good new edition to my home. It is very maneuverable and puts very little strain on your wrist while trying to hold it steady.

The other little crappy ones that you shake back and forth can not even come close to touching the Eco LED Flashlight.
