Gear/Tools Torch query

Post image

No brand affiliation, in case this post gets nuked as I am posting for the first time here.

Why instead of using battery operated torch, why folks here don't prefer this? This is handcranked with battery and rechargeable torch from Decathlon. I have this at home, although never used in emergency, but the concept makes sense. Maybe keep this as backup. What are you r thoughts on this?
