To
say that the mPower Emergency Illuminator is a flashlight is like
saying a Rolex is a watch. Granted, it is a true statement, but this
mPower Emergency Illuminator is like the flashlight of the gods.
Well, it was designed by the car gods, and, by that, I mean,
Porsche. Porsche Design Studio equipped the mPower with two widely
available CR 123 3 volt lithium batteries. But what makes this
flashlight the tops is it also includes a “groundbreaking reserve
lithium battery with a shelf life of at least 20 years”.
That’s right, a shelf life of 20 years. I have no idea how long of
an actual shine you would have with this, but dang, that’s 20 years!
Gilligan and his friends could have used this. By the way, he could
have charged some electronic devices like mobile phones, since the
device has an accessory USB connection. Maybe that’s how the castaways
of Gilligan’s Island listened to that radio all those years. Am I the
only one who ever noticed that the batteries of this portable radio
never wore out?
But enough references to old sixties
shows, you should be able to get the mPower Emergency Illuminator in
Titanium Satin and Black Chrome for about $289.00 in March 2010. You
