Checking out their web page, they have some "different" products. Is your light the SP-1002? If so, it strikes me as rather dim (max 8 lumens)and a bit heavy (6.5 oz). The manual implies that the unit might be a bit finicky (crank for a minute once a month for max battery life).
My preference for wilderness use is a headlamp powered by AA (primary lithium or NiMH rechargeables) with variable lumen output,the most useful of which is usually around 80-100 lunens). Used sparingly, such a light will last for days and fresh batteries are easily carried.
But this is opinion, not experience. Use your light and let us know how it works....
Yes, the one I have is the SP-1002. I have two at home mainly as backup in case the family decides to use my flashlights and/or batteries without telling me
One is very accessible and the other is part of my 72 hour bag. They aren't that bright but put out enough light to be useful in very dark situations like the inside of a house.
