Fake Magnetic LED torch/ Kinetic LED torch/ Faraday LED torch.
I was curious enough to butcher one open and I found the following:
1) PCB got holes for diodes to rectify the coil's output but no diodes was found.
2) Output of the coil was shorted out on the PCB.
3) The magnet that moves inside the coil was not a magnet at all.
4) The power to the LED is supplied by 2 CR2032 coin batteries.
No way you'll ever get any kinetic energy coverted into electrical energy macam ni.
I googled but found no mention of a fake magnetic torch so we found it here on LYN first!
Buyers beware.
Many thanks,
