The Solar Charging Flashlight Everyone Needs – HYBRIDLIGHT
Morgan Rogue 05.03.23
I’m a sucker for anything solar-powered. If I don’t have to change out batteries, I’m all for it. Even living here in the far north, you’d be surprised how efficient solar power can be.
I’ve had the HYDRIBLIGHT for years now. In fact, I don’t even remember when I got it, that’s how long I’ve had it. It’s traveled with us between Texas, Arizona and Alaska – and everywhere in between!
I keep it on the windowsill so it says charged at all times. Some people will say it’s not possible to charge any solar-powered item through a window because sometimes there’s a layer on the windows that will decrease efficiency. While this could be true, if you keep it in the windowsill all day, everyday, it’ll be plenty for a solar-powered flashlight like this. It may take a little longer, but it works.
I know it’s working because there’s a little red light on it to signify that it’s charging. It will even charge in
It can shine up to 50 hours on low setting and up to 5 hours on high setting. Low is sufficient light for around camp, around the house or for kids to play in the dark (my kids love playing with flashlights).
Something impressive about this light is that it can hold a charge for up to 7 years! For any battery to hold a charge like that is almost unheard of. While you can charge this up and just store it away for later use, I like to just make sure it’s always holding a full charge by keeping it on the windowsill like I mentioned above. But because it be fully charged then put away and still remain a full charge for up to 7 years, just adds that extra peace of mind.
I have the smaller 300 lumen HYBRIDLIGHT flashlight, which for me, is plenty bright enough for any of my purposes, but they also have a 600 lumen one as well that’s a big longer.
It’s really handy for any outdoor purposes, even in the rain! It has a waterproof exterior so it can be used in the rain and what’s more; it can also float in water!
While the sun is the main way to charge it, it can also be charged by simply plugging it in and charging up the battery. The built-in solar panel is of course an added bonus so it can charge up and remain charged up as long as there’s sun.
This really is a handy light for just about any occasion, indoors or outdoors, camping or emergency preparedness, you won’t go wrong with this HYBRIDLIGHT at just $38.
I’ve had it for years and it’s always come through for me whenever we needed for any lighting purposes while on the road, camping or at home, and I suspect it’ll continue to be reliable years down the line.
