Shake flashlights convert shaking energy into electrical energy by means of a high strength magnet passing back and forth through a coil of wire. The electrical energy generated is stored in a capacitor. The energy in the capacitor is then used to power a high brightness Light Emitting Diode (LED).
NightStar flashlights have no batteries to replace and no parts to fail. They can be counted on for a lifetime to light the path ahead
How do LightStorm crank flashlights work?
LightStorm Crank flashlights convert rotational energy into electrical energy by means of a dynamo generator. The electrical energy generated is stored in a capacitor. The energy in the capacitor is then used to power a variety of high brightness Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs).
LightStorm flashlights use Carbon Ultra-Capacitors - not batteries!. They're versatile, durable, and can be counted on whenever light is needed.
