Batteries, be gone! Thanks to the Ecolight® solar flashlight, say goodbye to the endless cycle of buying and replacing batteries and say hello to clean, green supercapacitor technology!
Supercapacitor technology stores electricity without a chemical reaction, allowing for virtually an unlimited number of recharges (up to 30,000). Compare this to rechargeable batteries, which can be recharged for only 100 to 1000 times before they deplete and are no longer usable.
This technology also allows for an ultra-fast charge. Rechargeable batteries often take many hours to charge, whereas the Ecolight can be charged in 4 minutes every day for 82 years! This means no batteries entering the waste stream and no toxic components.
In addition to the built in solar panel, the Ecolight can also be charged through the USB adapter. Needing only an hour to charge in direct sunlight or 4 minutes to charge in a USB drive, this flashlight is perfect for ever day household needs or week long camping trips. Simply place it where it will get a little light on its solar panel to keep fully charged without even relying upon a charger.
The powerful 1-Watt LED focused beam will illuminate objects at over 100 feet; and at 50 lumens it's even brighter than many traditional flashlights. It is also super light, weighing in at only 6 ounces!
The ecolight is quite likely the last flashlight you'll ever need to buy!
- Super-fast charge in 4 minutes with AC or auto chargers, about 1 hour with solar panel.
- A full charge gives you 45 minutes of light on High, or 4 hours on Low.
- The case is made of 100% recycled plastic and rubber w/UV inhibitors.
- Supercapacitor is made of non-toxic material.

To date the only other flashlight known to use supercapacitors and no batteries has been the shake-up flashlight. It is interesting to note that the Ecolight's supercapacitor, by contrast, boasts 60 times the power storage in its supercapacitor compared to that of the shake-up flashlight. This substantial power improvement gives the Ecolight a substantial edge: a vastly brighter light (approx. 10X brighter) and a far superior light duration.
