The magnet passes through a coil wound around the plastic tube and, using the motor priciple, (a wire in a varying magnetic field generates electricity) sends its AC voltage to a neat little rectifier and button cell battery. The flashlight differs from its cranky brethren in three ways. It is easy to run with only a few shakes necessary, its button batteries are very efficient and hold their charge for a long time, and the LED is quite powerful. It is about 7 inches long and 1 1/2 diameter. " Just the thing! I said to myself. I can use it at night in bed when I want to find one of the 20 mini pushbuttons on the DX-394 I use at bedside. This will avoid waking the household, who will immediately ask for money, and the dog, who will want to be let out." However, there is a dark side to all this. The flashlight is made of clear plastic to show the insides, and disassembles easily with its threaded parts. It lies there and cries, "Take me apart..I dare you. See how I work." Booby traps all through history have appeared harmless. It disassembles easily with its cylindrical magnet dropping out of its tube and falling on your foot. It is quite heavy for its size and seems to be made of very good magnet stuff. It was good fun figuring out the principle and circuits and was well worth the C$6.99 it cost. Now comes the bad part.. As I set it down on my desk, six paper clips and a pair of scissors jumped over to the flashlight. " Holy Cow, ' I said, "This sucker is really strong." Put it near a credit card. digital implant, watch, and driver's license and you are a non-person. If enough people put this flashlight in a pocket near their credit cards and wiped out their digital data, the economy of the United States could come crashing down. Apart from that littledetail, the flashlight works well and is highly recomended as a shortwave listeners nightime acessory. What about the economy of Canuckystan? Don't you ever think of CanaDuh or even mention it? You DO live there, don't you, 'tard boy? Why is it you dumb****s are always fixated on the USA? Curious. dxAce Michigan USA Because your ilk enjoys destroying the world. Where are those WMDs? What is the terrorist connection between 9/11 and Iraq? Oh wait! There is no WMDs or connection! ****ing douchebag! JB |

Several years after lying about WMDs and a Hussein/Iraq connection about 9/11 did Pres. Pathological Liar and his band of cherry-picked intelligence swilling men and women come clean and admitted that they had lied about it. Where was Bush during 9/11? Where as Bush during Katrina? That's one gutless Pres. you have! JB Don't forget to watch ABC's 'The Path to 9/11' this Sunday and Monday evenings, Okay!? "John Barnard" wrote Where are those WMDs?
