  The Freeplay Sherpa Wind Up and Rechargeable Torch should be a great idea - a torch that backs up a rechargable battery (mains adaptor supplied) with a manual crank. This design can be found on some radios (thanks to UK inventor Trevor Bayliss) and on manual chargers for mobile phones and for the most part it works quite well. The high beam setting is bright thanks to a Xenon-filled bulb, and winding the crank for 30 seconds gives you around 5 minutes of power on low beam.
