The Kiran is a solar rechargeable LED lantern that was designed for people who’s primary source of illumination is kerosene lamps, the smoky, hazardous light source many people have to use in developing nations. The Kiran can be recharged by the sun in 8 hours and will run for 4 hours on high output or for 8 hours on low. If there is some power available then the S10 be recharged via a standard 5mm Nokia phone charger, which must be everywhere by now. The lantern is designed to be sold for $10.
