Whoa.. that's kinda neat.. sucks you have to wind 50% of the time that you would want it to power your cell, but neat nonetheless!

Good for those days out in the wilderness.

Which for me is zero.

But on a serious note, it would be handy in emergencies whereever you are.

Haha, that's awesome. Charges your cellphone, and is good exercise.

That reminds me of that flashlight that you shake to provide power.

That reminds me of a radio I have that you wind up to get the power, and it has a built in flashlight too.

That is very smart, I think I might get myself one for when i go camping this season.

amtrack · 01-16-2006, 10:56 PM

Ha! That is awsome! I just ordered one. I have no idea what I would actually use it for. But, i shall find a reason. I chould chase my friends like a cop with the sirens!

InPulse · 01-16-2006, 11:09 PM

I might get one for my friend...he's really outdoorsy. I think he's really like it.
