Forever Flashlight

Juniper Foo | Dec 01, 2005

Why is it that in just about every thriller or scary movie, the protagonist will always be left holding a torch that flickers, and then (gasp) dies, leaving everyone in pitch-black darkness? Clearly, no one's heard of packing along a battery-less flashlight. The Forever Flashlight looks flashy enough and is one emergency light that'll never fail you. All that's required is a strong right arm to shake the torch a good 30 seconds. This recharges the capacitor sufficiently to provide about 5 minutes of illumination. Not much, but better than getting the willies imagining the worst in the dark.
