I have burned through a few shake lights and crank lights and I currently own zero that are still working. So for emergencies I have modified a few flashlights to run for hundreds of hours. My two most recent ones are a 500 hour and a 360 hour. For TEOTWAWKI I have made a few super capacitor flashlight. The 400 farad flashlights run for about 6 hours on a charge and can be recharged 500,000 times. The charge time is about 20 minutes. I charge them off of a car battery that gets charged off of a solar panel. Hopefully super capacitor flashlights will be as common as LED flashlights some day.
