Never worry again about whether you'll have light when you need it. The Freeplay Kito flashlight never needs replacement batteries or bulb!

  • Flashlight requires no batteries; simply wind it up for all the power you need--60 seconds of winding provides an hour of light
  • Plus, you can rewind at any time; the winder works in both directions, and the harder you crank the more energy you create
  • LED provides excellent brightness and shine time; enjoy the peace of mind that it will never burn out

Imported.

      Comments about Freeplay Kito LED Flashlight:

      Bulb burnt out after just a year of very casual use. No way of changing it that I can find so it is now yet another piece of junk that will go to a landfill. Very disappointed as I thought I was making an environmental choice. It was a great flashlight while it lasted.

        Comments about Freeplay Kito LED Flashlight:

        When this kind of technology is available, why are we still using disposable batteries? I love the 60x light yield (1 minute worth of cranking gives you 60 minutes worth of light). This is a great product, I highly recommend it.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Freeplay Kito LED Flashlight:

        This is a pretty good product. The crank s nice since the flashlight can be charged using clockwise and counter clockwise turns. The crank is also pretty durable, and I have dropped this flashlight more than a couple of times on dirt and rocks, and it is still going strong.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Freeplay Kito LED Flashlight:

        Maybe mine was broken but the light also shone through the blue casing. Worked great for a nite light when facing the light down on a table but also shined up into my face while walking, making it harder to see. I found I had to block that light.
