The Rex features four extremely bright LEDs in a single line array. The entire array has Freedom features which include variable brightness, multiple signal modes and an automatic SOS mode. The SOS mode will blink continuously for hours without recharging, and is visible for miles. This feature, if used by stranded hikers or motorists, could enable search and rescue teams to locate people who might otherwise not be found. The most important break-through feature of the Rex is, of course, its recharging ability. By simply connecting to any common battery, the Rex will recharge up to 500 times and signals when charging.
Future accessories include a solar panel recharging device and USB port re-charger. Due to be released at the Internationally renowned Outdoor Retailer convention in Salt Lake City, Utah on August 9-12th, the Rex will set a new standard for personal flashlights. Owner Dallas Allen is quoted as saying, “LRI has always produced micro lights with replaceable batteries and it is our goal to create products that will not harm the environment by leaving future generations with landfills full of spent batteries. Our goal is to Respect, Recycle and Restore. Without exception, our future product releases will keep this philosophy at the forefront of the design and development process.”
Inexpensive to operate
No more disposable coin-cell batteries! The ReX will charge from any standard battery of 3 volts or less. Your average cost is 6 cents per charge when using an alkaline "D" cell battery. When charged from a AA rechargeable NiMH your cost is only 1/3 of a cent per charge without any trail of discarded batteries!*
*Charging times and costs are based on LRI laboratory test results. Your personal experiences may vary.
ReX with proprietary Freedom digital circuitry
Photon's proprietary Freedom digital circuitry provides simple on/off control, full-range adjustable brightness, plus additional safety strobe functions and a momentary/signaling mode.
Rechargeable from Most Household Batteries
The ReX will blink slowly to indicate charging is in progress. When the charge is complete, it will stop blinking and turn itself off. When charging from disposable alkaline batteries, LRI estimates approximately 2 full charges from a typical AA, or 20 charges from a D battery. A single rechargeable NiMH AA battery will typically provide approximately 3 full charges of the ReX per charge.
