The Kaito model KA-009R emergency weather radio can be relied upon for daily use and in emergencies. The four way charging of the KA-009R means it can operate for an unlimited duration without depending on external power because it can be powered by the built in solar panel, hand crank, AA batteries or with the included 120 volt AC adapter.

If you crank the KA-009R when the battery is low for about two minutes you will get about 30- 60 minutes of playtime. Many users leave the KA-009R by the window and let the sunlight recharge the internal NI-MH battery. With normal sun exposure, the Kaito KA-009R can go days without electricity or batteries. The Kaito KA-009R radio will run about a hundred hours on 3 AA batteries. Four hours of sun charges the internal battery for about 24 hours. Normally you'd only use the dynamo with no electricity, no sun and no batteries. The internal NI-MH batteries can be fully charged and discharged more than 500 times. The batteries should recharge for at least 5 years.
