The New Aqua Light!

Have any of you seen the new flashlight that runs on water? When it dies down it mereley needs to be dipped in water for a mere few seconds to recharge it. One charge last for hours and it can be switched into a drop-down lantern looking thing. It's pretty cool! Any thoughts or reviews yet?

Puts out less light then a mediocre Single AA light. Water cell only works 3 times.

Get a Streamlight 1L-1AA and a pack of Lithium AA or 123s for around the same price and have a light that runs on alkaline AA, rechargeable AA, lithium AA or CR123 and puts out at least 150 lumens on high with a mediocre alkaline.

My two cents.

To cslinger:
This must be a new product. I just started seeing it on my advertisements on Hulu TV. It also said that it would offer way more light than you referenced and a lifetime of water recharges that they said took seconds.

Go read the Amazon reviews: HydraLight.


General consensus: It sucks.
