Uni-Com Wind Up Penguin Torch

Price: £5.29 Contact: 0845 6016911, www.homebase.co.uk

This cute penguin torch will help in a breakdown, but is probably best suited to amusing your kids as there are better alternatives. It’s easy to charge by squeezing the ‘wing’ and you can hear the dynamo spinning. Output from the three LEDs is bright yet narrow, but this was among the first torches to give up in our stamina test.
