A top class emergency light. It seems obvious to me that the Freeplay crank lights are the ones that everyone is trying to copy, and doing so rather unsuccessfully. These seem to have the highest quality of the crank lights I have tested and just plain feel solid. No rattles, no grinding, no poorly fitted parts.
The application of the companys technology has had a significant role in promoting education and access to life-changing information to isolated communities in the developing world: to date, over 100,000 Lifeline radios (powered by Freeplay technology) are being used in humanitarian projects in over 20 countries.
The Jonta is a great light to have in your car, and .. It doesn't take many D size batteries to make it worth while.
The New Internationalist is one of the most profound magazines.
Our biggest, brightest and best wind-up torch, featuring a state-of-the-art 1 Watt super-bright white LED controlled by a microprocessor. This remarkable LED has a life of up to 100,000 hours, with the excellent beam quality, maintaining focus at over 50 metres. Three settings give the options of 'energy saving', 'full power' or 'emergency flash'.
The wind-up system offers maximum dependability for those times when you can't afford to be left in the dark by dead batteries. Fully charged the Jonta will shine for approximately 24 hours on 'energy saving' and 2.5 hours on 'full power'. A 30 second wind provides about 10 minutes of shine on 'energy saving'. Two year warranty.
