Power Plus Barracuda

Price: £14.95 Contact: 0845 604 9049, www.johnlewis.com

Recommended: As you’d expect with a product sourced from John Lewis, this has a quality feel. It’s powered by a solar panel or dynamo. There’s a fair bit of resistance to the crank but, like our winner, the effort pays off – we saw an hour’s light in our test. There are three modes for the three LEDs, including a one-burner energy saver.
