As you know, it’s pretty frustrating that you get a sudden cut while having an urgent talk on your cell phone due to having run out of battery. We’ve seen quite a number of phone emergency chargers before. Even though they all have their unique and quick way to help us get the power back on our phone, but there is still little hassle of having to get it done. Such as the AA battery-powered charger and also the Solar-powered charger, if all this happened during mid night, perhaps, you’d still be able to get an AA battery if you live near by Seven-Eleven. But you don’t get any sun light to power your solar charger at night.
Here is another emergency phone charger, which you neither need sunlight nor batteries. What you need is simply a hand, i.e to rotate its hand crank to generate power for you to charge back your cell phone, so you can continue on your conversation.
Other than just a cellphone charger, it’s also an LED flashlight, which you can have some light to keep you accompanied when you’re in a complete blackout! Anyway, it’s a cool gadget for emergency, but too bad is its charger connector fits only some Japanese cell phone, such as any DoCoMo, Tu-ka, Vodafone, FOMA etc.
