The Kaito model KA-007 emergency radio can be relied upon
for daily use or in an emergency. The Kaito KA-007 world radio can receive broadcast
signals from regular AM and FM radio stations, NOAA weather channels,
over the air TV stations as well as international shortwave and taxi, and police broadcasts.
The four way charging of the KA-007 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 include 120 volt AC adapter.
If you crank the KA-007 when the battery is low for about two minutes you will
get about 30- 60 minutes of playtime. Normally you'd only crank it in a situation where you had no electricity,
no sun and no AA batteries. Many users leave the KA-007 by the window and let the sunlight recharge the
internal NI-MH battery. With normal sun exposure the Kaito KA-007 can go days without being plugged in
and no AA batteries in it.
When you have electric current, just plug it in using the included AC/DC adapter.
The Kaito KA-007 radio will run about a hundred hours on 3 AA batteries.
Four hours of sun charge 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.
The Kaito KA-007 can receive over the air network and local stations on TV channels 1-13.
The KA-007 radio doesn't get cable TV or UHF. However, on the WX band you can get many stations
like police and taxi broadcasts that transmit in the VHF frequency range.
The KA007 by Kaito Electronics is designed in the UK and manufactured in China.
Kaito Electronics also makes high-end shortwave radios for Grundig.
The US and UK army have purchased over 75,000 of the Kaito KA-007.
