Don't know a lot about this - but maybe this would help give you some 
insight. - LED - light emitting diode - do not need a lot of power to 
light. The led (bulb) has a half life of 15 years continuos burn. I use 
them all the time in my biz and had had some burn out - but very rare. 
As far as the power, sounds like an almost solar type deal. Shaking it 
gives it a charge, but will not last long. I assume that the chem. in it 
that make it work have a long half life as well so they can make their 
claims. I would be wary of the quality it would have as a light. LED's 
do not shine well at all. If they did - all flashlights would use them. 
They are good for close up light - like reading - not for walking or 
lighting an area. Most outdoor stores, target, etc. have them. They come 
in red, green, blue, orange, and white.

Hope this helps...
