The Kaito KA009R Crank and Solar Power Radio is the ultimate
upgrade of the legendary KA007. Most significantly the Kaito KA009R adds
a cell phone charger capability to all the features already incorporated
into KA007, but it also includes several subtle enhancements, most
notably an integrated LED emergency flashlight that works off the same
power source as the radio.
To charge a compatible cell phone from Motorola, Nokia, LG, or Samsung
you simply plug the interconnect cable and one of the 6 tips into the
radio/charger and turn the dynamo crank.
Although this radio can be stowed away in a closet or automobile
trunk awaiting the next hurricane or other disaster, it can also be used
on a daily basis to listen to such varied content as weather broadcasts,
international SW radio such as the BBC and normal AM and FM music broadcasts. If you
take this with you to the beach or camp grounds, you will not only get
to enjoy it, but you will also get to familiarize yourself with the same
features that you may need in an emergency.
This radio is powered by four alternative methods. First it can be
operated from an included detachable 120 volt AC power cord. Second it
can be run from an installed solar panel. Third it can be run from a
hand crank charger which stores the internal NiMH rechargeable batteries.
Finally it can be run immediately from a second set of 3 AA
batteries.
