Sports reviews of Kaito KA404 Emergency Hand Crank Dynamo 5-LED Flashlight with AM/FM radio

Customer Review: Very useful
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I've been wanting to do this review for months. I purchased this flashlight in 2008 and in 2010 I still use it for small uses here and there. The nice thing is it does not need replaceable batteries.

The light is is bright when on high enough to see things and low also brightens things up well. Also used it at night on various occasions to look at the car motor and just search for general things at other times. I have also used it for book reading at night by placing it on my shoulder. It uses 5 LEDs on high and 1 LED on low.

We had a power outtage on the east coast a few months back that lasted 3 to 5 days depending where you where as the storms took out trees and left three states not having power to alot of customers. I grabbed this flashlight and realizing I had no other radio with batteries I used this and started listening for news on AM radio to see if I was the only one, since my house is an isolated area I had no idea if anyone else was affected. For the next few days I kept this flashlight by my side and would turn it on once in awhile to listen to news reports it was practically my only link to the world and it served me well.

Nice features about this light are that is has, built in radio. Reception works by turning it in different directions and using the knob, works nicely. The light has 2 settings low and high. It has buzzer built in siren sound that can be used to attract attention for very short distance.

Other: The built in slot of charing USB devices I believe that has to bought from the company as a seperate piece. I did drop it once or twice and the volume knob just kinda fell out but it was easy to put it back in. I read someone here saying something about a metal pin sliding out, on my unit I've turned the crank hundreds of times probably and it has no metal pin not sure if something has changed since I bought it. I do wish it had more protective rubber around it and even rubber buttons.

Overall I recommend this product for those who wish a to keep a quick use flashlight in an emergency or just put in your drawer or car glove box. Gets 5 stars for being useful when I needed it.
