Mine works great.
Update: Dec. 7, 2012. Still works great.<br /><br />I think I have an updated model FD01 revpack FD01/0908. It has a silver cover under the plastic where the lights are. Bought at a local store. Everything else seems the same. Except that it says 30 seconds of cranking gives up to 2 hours of light on the package, but instructions say 1 minute, but they could be old instruction. That is with the one LED setting. I have had mine on after about 50 or so cranks, as I write this. It has been nearly an hour on 3 LED setting. I have a Scrunch, hand lever pump type light. After a minute of pumping it starts to dim after about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Then gets weak, but stays on for a long time, but very dim. Right now, after about an hour, the VIATEK is at that same dim level the other one is at in about a minute or so!!! This is a much better flashlight, and it can charge phones, and even my multi-media devices that use the mini-usb plug.<br />  I can't see much on the other side of the room, but up close I can still read labels and stuff.<br />  I hope it keeps working. YOU CAN REPLACE THE BATTERY INSIDE IF YOURS DOES NOT KEEP A CHARGE ANY LONGER, or at least my version states you can. It take a LiR 2032 battery. Lithium Rechargeable. 3.6v.36ma.<br />  It has been more than one hour, it is still on. Very dim across the room, but I can still read the instructions with it.<br />  GREAT LIGHT!!!<br />  Hope this review helps...<br />UPDATE: Jan, 15 2012. I tried to charge my mp4 devices, and even though I do get a charge indicator, after 10 minutes of cranking there was no appreciable charge. I don't have a cell phone, so it might work in them. But just to let people know, it did not charge my multimedia devices, or did not do it much.... STILL a nice light that I use all the time...
