When we say our newest astro flashlight is "self powered," we mean it is powered by your own bad self! The RedBeam SP has a small hand crank that, when wound, charges an internal rechargeable battery. There's no need for any other batteries, ever! Just 1 minute of winding cranks out up to 1 hour of red LED light! Red light preserves your dark-adapted night vision while you read star charts or check your equipment. Choose from two brightness settings, which illuminate three or all five red LEDs. The RedBeam SP can also be charged from a USB port (USB charge cable included). It can even power a cell phone in an emergency (five popular cell phone adapters are included). Get the astronomy flashlight that never needs additional batteries!

Summary: MUCH Better Than Their Dual Beam Light
Comment: I bought this because I've dissatisfied with Orion's dual beam light for a LONG time. That unit's red light is just too dim, but the Orion RedBeam SP Self-Powered LED Flashlight is just perfect. I used it on a stargazing session July 5th and it was great. I could easily read my maps and charts, and was able to use it to guide me around in the dark while packing up.

Summary: Surprise feature
Comment: The hand crank has a nice little compass which astronomers can appreciate. Beneath the handle, you will find port sockets for USB and phone charger, adapters and cables are included. Two position switch allows for led brightness selection. Another switch provides choice between charging cell phone or light. The light has a nice balance to it, making it easy to hold and charge. The beam is solid for the size and weight. I suggest something soft to protect the front led window when transporting.

Summary: Fantastic Product!
Comment: In my opinion, this device is a must have for astronomers, hikers, campers, scouts, night guides, travelers, and anyone who needs a portable, user-friendly, reliable light that illuminates, but does not irritate.
RedBeam is just a little larger than a cell phone, and it can be cranked to charge--no batteries needed. A minute's worth of cranking gives one about an hour of steady light that can be adjusted for low brightness and high brightness. It's curved shapes fits nice in the hand, and the carrying strap is a great benefit.
The little instruction page that is included with the product clearly describes its other features, functions, and abilities. [I have always been appreciative of Orion's attention to their products' instruction manuals and materials; these items always seem very helpful, anticipating the consumers questions and / or needs.] Redbeam is a surprising little flashlight that is a pleasure to own and to use. It would make a fantastic and unusual gift.
