1. An electric energy storage hand twist torch, comprising:

  • a lamp cap and a casing having a central axis, wherein the casing includes a front casing and a rear casing coaxially and rotatably mounted to a rear side of the front casing for bi-directionally twisting relative to one another about the central axis, and the lamp cap is fixed on the front casing, wherein the interior of the front casing is provided with an electric generator including a rotating shaft coaxial with the central axis of the casing, an energy storage element, a circuit board and a control switch, while the exterior of the front casing is provided with a push button corresponding to the control switch, and wherein the output end of the electric generator is connected with the input end of the circuit board via a lead;

    the output end of the circuit board is connected with the energy storage element; and

    wherein the rotating shaft of the electric generator is connected with the rear casing via a planetary gear set, the planetary gear set including a power input end connected to a bottom wall of the rear casing and a power output end connected to the rotating shaft of the electric generator, whereby the electric generator is actuated by the rear casing via the planetary gear set upon bi-direction twisting of the rear casing relative to the front casing about the central axis to generate electric energy and to store the electric energy in the energy storage element.
