Simple, rugged, reliable. The Freeplay Kito LED Lantern is essential gear for convenient lighting whenever you need it, wherever you need it.

The Kito features a single 10mm ultra-bright LED powered by Freeplay's unique, efficient patented self-charge technology. The dependability of both LED and Freeplay technology means that you'll never need to worry about replacing bulbs or batteries again. The super efficient self-charge system delivers an hour of bright light per minute of cranking - so you'll never need to worry whether you've recharged it - you are never more than a few seconds away from useful, dependable light.

Ideal for everyday and emergency use, indoors and out, the Kito puts the power in your hands. The entry level offering in the Freeplay lighting range, it's affordable to keep several around the house - in the kids' bedroom, the garage, the shed, the car, the basement, or anywhere that requires dependable light when you need it.

Crank it either clockwise or counterclockwise for as much light as you need - and you can wind at any time for as much shine-time as you want. A simple push button switch behind a tough rubber enclosed lens makes the Kito simple and easy to use for light when you need it - anytime, anywhere.
