My nephew brought me one of those magnet/coil flashlights that you are supposed to shake to make it work. I immediately saw that the coil wasn't connected to anything and soon thereafter found the coin cell battery. That flashlight lasted several hours on just a couple of shakes!
And then never worked again
Typical Chinese!.

I wouldn't say that. I had two flashlights working with a magnet being moved inside a clear plastic pipe and a coil on it. They worked alright until my (lovely) stepdaughters dropped them and they separated to pieces.
Typical Chinese!
Typical Chinese? Typical good or typical bad?
Tomorrow I'll borrow that flashlight, and then upload photos, it was fun, he showed it to me a month ago. It is noisy.
You are too pessimistic. People will always self-adjustment, which is not self-destruction.
I have two identical flashlights. One has a magnet, and the coil is connected to a charging circuit and a 50mAh NiMH battery. The other looks identical but the coil's wire is broken and isn't connected to anything. It has a coin cell instead of the NiMH, and in place of the magnet is a plain steel slug.My nephew brought me one of those magnet/coil flashlights that you are supposed to shake to make it work.

Shake it gently to avoid noise. It will still work.
Of course I believe you since those items are manufactured in China.
Another example: LED torches with mains power battery charging capacity. Don't drop the torch hard nor kick it on the table.
Otherwise the battery will quit instantaneously - made in China.
