Does the battery require a conditioning charge before the first use?
| |
For best results, the internal battery requires a conditioning charge before first use or after long periods without use. This can be done by administering several vigorous 30 second wind cycles. Alternatively this can be done by applying a 15 hour adapter charge prior to use. The lantern can however, be used immediately in the wind-up mode if required.

Can I over-wind the unit - does it ever stop you from winding?
| |
No, you cannot over-wind the internal mechanism. It consists of simple gearing which drives the alternator, providing power to the internal battery.

Will I damage the lantern if I crank the handle in the opposite direction?
| |
No, the winder handle can be cranked in both directions.
