SOS!
Get Prepared - Here's The Weather Report "Rain, Rain, Rain and Flooding!"

As weather forecasters predict rain, rain and yet more rain for (town) during the beginning of March, with a high chance of localised flooding, the last thing you need is a torch with dead batteries during a power cut.

For these times of distress Freeplay Energy Group has come up with the essential tool that provides a never-ending light source - the Sherpa Torch. This torch will never let you down and will provide you with light relief in the bleakest of situations!

The Freeplay Sherpa incorporates a rechargeable battery supported by failsafe wind-up technology. Designed to be a serious tool in one compact, rugged unit the Flashlight is ideal for emergency use. A quick wind (about 30 seconds) gives 5 - 8 minutes of light on the normal beam and the recharge system provides 30 minutes of ultra bright beam and five hours on normal beam. Retailing at £34.99 there's no need to be left in the dark again!

What's more, if you are keen to keep up to date with news bulletins, Freeplay's radios - the Ranger and Summit - use the same ingenious technology as the Sherpa Torch and can therefore promise assured listening to weather reports and news updates in your area at anytime, anywhere without the need for batteries or mains supply.

The Ranger radio offers a choice of rechargeable, wind-up, and solar power with unparalleled sound quality. By just winding the radio for 30 seconds approximately 30 minutes of play time is produced and when fully charged the Ranger which retails at £44.99, gives a massive 25 hours playtime.

The Freeplay Summit is the first multi-band radio with clock and alarm settings, which comes with a world travel adaptor and protective travel pouch making it perfect for adventures on land or sea. Key features include coverage on four wave bands (FM,MW,SW,LW), digital tuning, 30 station presets and a retail price of £85.99.
