Kerosine killer health benefits and requires only 0.5W per lamp for 5 candelas. Tukimara = "wicked lamp killer". Originally NiCd with independent tiny solar. Later recognized NiMH better. Also later recognized school based generation better than independent. But still carrying entire lamp to school.

- Less than 0.5 W for 5 candelas. 3 x 1500mAh x 1.2V = 5.4 Wh (3.6 V). 45 yrs @ 6 hrs per day for WLED (3 Wh per day). 2-3 hours charge every 3 or 4 days should require 9-12 Wh? Consider OLPC 6.6V battery packs - 22 Wh Li FePO4? Weekly? Parallel strings of series WLEDs? But also need multiple lamps etc. So may want single cells.
