How long does the light work after you crank it?

the light is quite bright. one mode for led, and one mode for emergency flash. each lighting uses a individual button.

Mine worked fine right out of the box after ten or so cranks. You might try placing it in sunlight for twenty min or so to charge the battery. Make sure the little charging LED is lit when you do. If all else fails return it for a new one

Thanks for asking me..I keep it plugged in all year round and it only turns on when you push the button. It will stay on I believe for like 8-10 (I think 10) hours until you push the button in again that turns the light (on the button) off. I LOVE LOVE this item...I know you will too.

The light has a timer on it. I use my light for several minutes and the brightness of the light is good for there size and price. I use the one I have on a metal building garage

No. The light only comes on when you are adjusting the settings, or if you press the large button underneath the display. The light will stay on for about 10 or 15 seconds after you stop pressing buttons and then turn itself off.

The lights in mine go off after it is docked. Not right away it usually takes about 3-4 minutes.

Hi Ken,It was not different than any other light. Should take 15-20 minutes.

I'm with the previous posters. Light output brightens during and after cranking. I think that is ample evidence that cranking recharges the unit.

You have to turn it on. It has a few different levels of light depending on how many times you push the button.

a minute or so. Depends on how fast you turn the crank and how fine you set the grinding mechanism

The light goes out after 60 seconds or so. It's best function is like that of a flash light: its just bright enough to help you find your way in the dark.

I can't say how long on just high. But it seems to go for around three hours on low. It's very bright and not really needed on high.

I have left it on for extended periods but have never timed it. It is guaranteed to work for 3 years at above above normal use (9 hours a day for three years) with no change in lights or battery. It has a dimmable dial switch that allows for every level of brightness between off and ultra bright.

I haven't gotten that far along, but I'm estimating at least six months. The light only stays on about 15 seconds so it can go longer. I used alkaline batteries.

10-15 minutes but the light should turn from red to green to let you know it's ready.

one night we were doing a bbq outside and it was giving at least an hour of light: the light did not have full charge. the light is pretty bright.with full light it can give you a more than 1 hour i believe. but I don't know about 4 to 6. I don't think it is designed for this long or for constant light, This light turns off automatically if no movement.
