I'm looking for a portable, rechargeable light for the winter in case of power cuts. Preferably it will charge by both solar and electricity power, and bonus points if it also is capable of charging my phone.

This one from amazon claims a longer light run time for a similar cost to SF oneDaylight Mode: 8 Hours
Combined Mode: 6.5 Hours
Warm White Mode: 12 Hours
Although I swear it just went up 4 quid the 2nd time I clicked on it - sure it was £34 ish 1st time now £39

EDIT : It did !
I had one in my 'basket' from the other day, but the went out of stock, now getting then from US2 -
This one is solar unlike the above and even gets the bonus points for recharging your phone:

BTW I've got 2 of the ones linked above by bob but I bought them in 2021 for just £27 - shows how everyone is panic buying rechargeable lighting causing the costs to rise.1 -
Thanks everyone.
I bought a little battery radio a couple of months ago, but thought I should also get some better lights than my existing torches.0 -
power cuts will be a couple of hours at most - otherwise I'd be more worried about my freezer and fridge contents than anything else.
