Title: Weak and cheap, but is what it is
Product review: We bought two of these after Gustav hit this summer and we realized we'd be without power for weeks.They run fairly efficiently, when you can get the switch to stay in position. They'd run for several days on 4-D batteries when set to the low position. They also ran quite nicely on rechargeable alkaline batteries.They are too big to take camping, but we'll hang on to them for the next hurricane.Overall, I was disappointed with the build quality. They won't put up with any abuse, and I feel certain I'll be replacing the switch at some point. The exposed blade is soft foam and doesn't hurt, but is probably still not safe around little kids or cats.
