“But I still keep a flashlight in the house.”
I just bought two. Now I have 5. One for the car, four for the house. I almost always have my phone with me but I keep flashlights mostly for emergencies. When I lose power, I don’t want to waste smartphone battery power by using it as a flashlight. Don’t really like running my car just to charge my phone.
I have a 2008 Ford Escape. I don’t have to run my car to charge my cell phone. I do not understand why many cars stop charging when the ignition is turned off.
