Gave my son on for Christmas a couple of years ago. It goes camping with us and is very reliable. Ideal for kids as they can run it flat without it mattering.

If it's a wind-up, why the battery?
The message from Chris Bacon contains these words:
So you don't have to wind it continually. A minutes winding lasts for ages.

I have a visually identical one bought in a Morrisons garage. Absolutely excellent bit of kit, not the brightest torch but perfectly adequate for most tasks and it always works. I may get another couple.
You charge the battery as you wind.

Probably takes over when the wind up genny is near its ending sequence, so that you don't have to shuffle about looking for it in the dark. lol

Better yet, avoid anything that Lidl sells.
Nah! man some stuff is worth the money,the Bench Drill I bought in Aldi two weeks ago was a bloody damn good bargain at 30GBP since I bought it me holes in wood have never been as straight and true :-) and the same pliers set where good for 4.99GBP and the wood chisels at the same price.

You must be easily pleased :-)
Lidl at one time had hand tools: pliers, long nosed, etc for 99p each. They were the equivalent quality as Stanley which are about £9 a go. I went wild and bought 5 of them.

Beter than what?
I would have loved to be in the store when you took it back to Lidl if it hadn't been a "good bargain". Are you dylsexick? Or were you using the drill to improve the holes in your head?
You'd have had a wasted journey then,as I would have been at Aldi.
Pompous pratt.
No to be honest you are just as big a prat as him.

It's a long long time since the Stanley name was any guide to quality.
That would be one pair for each hand, then?
