User questions & answers

Question:	What electrical power cord should I get for this radio
Answer:	Yes to all three questions reading lamp works well has red blinker and flashlight love the radio great for anytime but wonderfull when the lights go out
Question:	Hi, is this made in China
Answer:	The optional AA batteries are in addition to the included rechargeable battery. Power selector switch on front allows separate choice of "Batt" (i.e. AA cells), or "Crank/Solar" (which are the two ways of charging up the rechargeable battery). So, if you select "Crank/Solar" the radio is actually running off the rechargeable battery, and attempting to use either the solar cells or the hand crank to keep it charged.
Question:	Can you purchase an AC adaptor / Charger for this unit to leave it plugged in at the house
Answer:	Thanks for asking the great question ! Yes, the solar panel is designed that way to work... even when the battery is taken out...KaitoOur new KA500L will last longer..and larger solar panel:https://www.amazon.com/Kaito-Powered-Emergency-Weather-Flashlight/dp/B01GUMPKVU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1465594656&sr=8-1&keywords=ka500LKaito
Question:	I am looking for a radio that will remain silent unless there is an emergency weather alert and then it goes off. Will this unit do that for me
Answer:	It has a switch on it for NOAA weather alerts. The 4-way power is this: it has a handle you can turn to charge it, that's 1; it has a solar panel for charging, that's 2; it has a lithium ion (or something) battery that you can plug into the wall to charge, that's 3; and you can also put 3 AA batteries in it to power it, that's 4. 4-ways to charge it. I liked this radio, but wish I had bought the digital one for a few bucks more.

User questions & answers

Question:	If I use rechargeable batteries, will the crank charge them

Answer:	The range is pretty wide, but the accuracy changes when it is extreme low or high , but it does work !Kaito
Question:	Can I get an instruction booklet for my
Answer:	Different sellers, I guess; or one os brand new and the other is scond-hand.
Question:	Is it weather (water) proof
Answer:	Hi Tim,To be very candid with you, with a fair amount of effort (via the hand crank *probably about 4-5 mins worth) if your cell phone were pretty much dead, you would be able to achieve enough of a charge to at least make a short call (I'm using my Samsung Galaxy Note as a reference) but if you're thinking a few quick cranks of the handle will give you a 20-30% charge, it won't. If you worked the crank for a little while, and had some time on your hands while waiting for some food to cook at a bbq, or in an emergency situation where the lights were out, the Kaito would provide some power, more so if you crank it longer, of course you would want to make sure things like blu tooth, Wi-Fi, and gps were disabled to help charge quicker & also not immediately deplete the power once you turn it on, so the short answer to your question is Yes! I've done it, but remember - this isn't like buying one of those PowerGen External Battery Packs (which are really a great buy, if you plan on traveling for a while and keep one handy & charged should you be in a position of not having a plug available to charge your phone or ipad or what have you.As someone who has bought three of these Kaito KA600 units, I will say they are very nicely built (for the price) and the factyou can plug an aux input to the back & (for example) use your phone to plug in your mp3 collection or stream internet radioat a back yard bbq or picnic, or at the beach - was a key selling feature for me, & the RDS & weather alert & SW bands areall icing on the cake.Hope my admitably lengthy response answers your question fully.Cheers!`JT~

User questions & answers

Question:	How long does it take to charge the raddy rf-l3 radio from no charge with the solar panel and full sun? is this a better set-up than the crank raddy
Answer:	The dynamo and solar panel charge the internal battery pack only. The radio has no way of telling what type AA batteries have been inserted - alkaline, zinc carbon, NiMh, NiCd etc. - making it a really bad idea to apply charge current to the AA battery holders. So they don't.
Question:	How long does it take to fully charge a phone
Answer:	the solar was worthless. Even here in Florida in August!
Question:	Can I use 5000 mah batteries in this or is it limited to 2000 mah batteries max
Answer:	there is a pdf on-line. just google it
Question:	Replacement batteries are they flat top type 18650 or other
