This is awesome! This small radio has some great features and will be coming along with me on my next camping adventure. To start, you have to charge it and this can be done in one of four ways. You can crank it, let the sun charge the solar panel, use a lithium battery, or charge it via USB. I intend to just use the 1st two options. // Ok, so now that it's charged... you can listen to AM, FM, WB (that last one is for emergency weather updates). Turning the volume knob to the right will turn on the radio and make it as loud as you need. Use the tuner knob to find a clear station. Extend & adjust the antenna for a better signal. This is also a flashlight and can be used at 2 different levels or a combo of each. Or, this can be a reading lamp - just lift up the solar panel on top. That reading lamp also serves another purpose - switch the button on the back from light to auto and it turns the lamp into a motion detector. How cool is that?? I can set this up outside my tent so if I have an uninvited guest, I'll be alerted by the light. And if it the light doesn't scare them away? There's an SOS button! Press and hold... a loud siren will go off while the flashlight flashes. That would scare away plenty of uninvited guests. Need to charge your phone? There's a phone charger as well as a USB (if you have a different type of charger, charge your phone via USB instead). I can't get over how many features come with this. This is something that you should keep in a storm shelter or in the back of your car with an emergency kit, or in your bug-out bag. I wish I had this during our last hurricane in which we were without power for 2 weeks. I'll be encouraging people to get one of these.

I use this flashlight all of the time. Its a great product. I bought it to have when the power goes out in the winter but I use it every night when I take my dog out. I haven't used the phone charger yet but I have a feeling I will this winter. I would absolutely recommend buying this product. It's better than I expected it to be.

Motion light great , crank great, solar charge great, I hat be broad but everything great about it. I have had this for 7 yrs im a avid outdoor multi day hiking, mountain climbing, ect Has never failed me. I write this review because I'm going to buy my second one with no second guessing running snail is the one. The picture is my old one obviously damaged . The water proof cover for charging ports came off about two years ago ( my fault I pulled to hard after a camping night of adult beverages) . The crank handle broke after my daughter 5 @ the time . Stepped on it after the handle was outstretched. Since the two breaks it has suffers water submerge, rain , attempts of supper glue to reconnect handle ,kicks ,licks, drop so on and I say it will works great only reason I'm buying a new one is because I can't get handle to reconnect after a year lol buy It is great .

For the price I was surprised how small it is. But I tired it all out and really like it and I think it would be awesome in a storm setting or even when the lights go out for awhile. I like the SOS feature, easy for my kids to use if necessary. Not sure how long the battery life is yet. But I may bring this camping next time I go and see how it works with holding a charge. But overall I am happy with it. Seems easy to use. Comes with the charger.

The only thing I don't like about this is how slick the outer material is. It easily slides out of your hands so you need to keep it attached to the wrist strap or you'll drop it. It also doesn't have a handle which would have made it easier to carry. Everything works but it's tuning capabilities are a bit spotty. I was still able to clearly pickup 15 FM stations, 1 AM and 1 Weather. The SOS alarm is only moderately loud but it will get someone's attention. The best features are the lights. They are very bright and with the battery, long lasting. The reading lamp is supposed to run 20 hours or less fully charged. Mine went 23 hours before I finally turned it off.

Muy bueno hasta el momento.

Small old school radio, AM, FM and WB is awesome. Recharge multiple ways, no batteries needed and the sounds is great once you manually fine tune into your favorite music. Great for emergencies, also a great find for us old schoolers who like a daily simple radio that uses zero electricity.
Jeffrey
Very nice little radio combo system. My ONLY complaint is the speaker is a little bit small. It has two (2) XTT 18650, 2000 mAh batteries in it which equals the 4000 mAh stated in the description. Please see my two pictures of one of the batteries. Comes with an instruction manual, one cord, and iPhone lighting adapter to use with the USB cord provided.

The first radio that was delivered did not work properly. We were in contact with customer service.Kiki, in customer service, was outstandingly helpful. When all the remedies that were suggested did not fix the problems, we received a new replacement radio within one day.
Stella W.
Great product! Lights even work right out of the box. For the price, I would definitely recommend it. It would be great when the power was off during a hurricane or storm. The radio worked well and got many stations without the antenna. The lights were very bright on the flashlight and the lamp. I would definitely recommend this product and am definitely thinking about purchasing more
T. Yawn
This tool has been my constant go to since the storms came through Covington, TN last Friday. It's been worth every penny. The radio alerted the tornado was on the ground before any alert my phone gave. Especially since cell service was down most that night. Power is still out and I'm writing this review while I'm charging my phone on this radio. 5 stars.

Love it!! Perfect during hurricane season and for beach days, camping and tailgating.
THXkid
My dad bought this for the weather station, you can wind it up for power, the solar and the easy to replace 18650 battery. Solar and wind up works fine, just takes awhile to get a full charge, you never will on the hand crank. The radio is a bit picky to find the exact station but living in the phoenix area, no impossible to do. For the price he is pleased with it.
Melanie
I bought several for us and family members for Channukah. Arrived in perfect condition. All are delighted with them! Excellent quality fast shipping. Works superbly. Only tons of compliments absolutely no complaints! Both items in image come with this radio. Make sure to put small adapter somewhere safe before discarding box.
Vincent
About a year ago I purchased and returned a similar Emergency radio and returned it. Impressed by this radio. it is easy to use, good sound quality for a small radio. It's a good quality, solar/crank/USB powered, easy to use, AM, FM and Weather Radio. I'll give this Emergency Radio a definite thumbs up.
olivier
Excellent emergency radio. The 18650 Li-Ion replaceable batteries was a key feature for me. This unit came with 2 fresh ones that I will be able to test, replace or recharge when needed. This pack gives a significant amount of power (4000mAh compared to the 600mAh of the Kaito 500 for example ).The batteries came 75% charged and the unit started solar charging right out of the box just with the ambient light.All features are functioning as expected. The unit is compact and feels solid.Solar and crank are great additions that feel reassuring in case you would be exposed to very long term outages and, of course, they'll always be better than nothing.Nevertheless, don't have to high expectations with the integrated solar panel.(And i still think it's a great feature to have)These small integrated solar panels on all this type of radios (or power banks) have limited capabilities even in the best conditions . You should not count on the solar panel to recharge your unit 100% and whatever amount of charge you'll manage to capture will take a long time .The realistic way to recharge this type of units via solar is with an external panel.The removable batteries option is a big plus since you can replace them, but also test and charge them in a separate charger.Cranking is a good extra way of charging for extreme situations (depleted batteries, no spare, no extra power bank, zero sun).Otherwise this unit can be charged via usb and wall outlet or power bank or (after removing the batteries) with a charger compatible with 18650, for maintenance or when preparing for a coming weather event.In the front, there are 4 blue leds for state of charge indicator (25/50/75/100%), a red led for charging indicator and a green one when the radio tuning is good.I've tested charging phone, iPad and iPod, all good.The sound is loud and crisp. Excellent AM/FM/WB reception (Urban area). The lights (Flash and reading) are super bright. The motion sensor feature on the reading light is genius.The sos alarm seems unnecessary but it's very loud and works.The iPad/iPhone adapter is a very clever addition.I don't see how you could be completely out of power (ever) with this unit.On the whole an excellent unit for this price, I recommend.
Steven Sanchez
Sound quality is great, warmth is great, and battery life is good.I use this product for emergency situations and listening to music.

Perfect little radio! Would definitely recommend, and I'm buying my daughter one two.

Good little radio for the price with lots of added features. One negative- I thought the green was different than advertised. So far, really happy with the product
ACB
I just got this a little while ago but I love it. Sounds good, bright and nice crank. I plan on buying this for all my family.
J.S.
When we lost power recently, this radio allowed us to check in on the radio to see what the issue was. In addition to keeping us informed, the light kept our kids calm during a stressful situation
Tresia Critser
Great product. Really happy with this and think it'll be great during hurricane season. The only negative thing I have to say is that it came with the wrong charger... gave me a USB C but everything else event the iPhone charging adapter is micro usb... luckily I have plenty lying around. Just thought it was odd.
Josh S.
Small and lightweight. Feels sturdy. Good sound quality and alright volume control. It doesn't have a jack for headphones. With loud sirens. Bright lights. Easy to crank for power. Using the solar panel will take awhile for it to charge. Use the hand crank or the micro USB cable for faster charging. It also comes with batteries. It comes with the micro USB cable but no charger adaptor. Overall it is a good solar/hand crank emergency radio/lights/phone charger. A good buy.
Ingrid C
This is a nice gadget to keep for emergency situations. The radio and flash light work well. As others mentioned, it doesn't seem to charge fully, only to 75 %. I'm also not sure that the solar panel charges but the manual handle charges effeciently. I hope to never need it but this is a useful gadget to keep just i case.
Marvin E.
If you are like me, and wanted a radio you could REPLACE the batteries. This is it. I reached out to customer service after noticing the sticker that says DO NOT OPEN BATTERY DOOR on the radio I got. I got a response telling me that the sticker is there ONLY because some people don't replace the batteries with COMPATIBLE BATTERIES, and that voids the warranty. So unlike some radios, when the batteries die, you don't throw away the radio, you just replace the batteries. EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. Knobs are a little stiff and sound quality isn't great. I got it for weather information though. So I am happy
Marty R
This particular one seems to have been a good choice for us. Going over each feature: there are 3 LED bulbs at the front, one round between two rectangular ones, with the round one called "long range" and the others "wide," and you can turn on one, or two, or all three (but the "long range" one is not like a flashlight and is really only for the nearby area); under the small solar panel on top is a nice bright rectangular LED panel "for reading" or general light; the radio picks up the weather channel in the area, but like other weather radios, the sound is not very good (not the radio's fault, I think), plus AM and FM, but the sound quality will not replace your earphones or portable speaker; the lights flash when the emergency siren is activated (great feature); there is a manual power crank (and the miniature solar panel) in case the batteries run out; and multiple power connections (in and out). The lithium batteries are rechargeable and replaceable, and total 4000 mAh. Overall, more than I was looking for an emergency light for the car, and still for a very good price. Here's hoping that we never need to use it!
Adriana Belding
The only thing I wish it had was a back up regular battery but in option not just chargeable built in battery
ReedLady
Came as expected, was Lil fake looking, very light weight. It had everything on it that you would need in case of emergency. Haven't had to use it yet.
Sarah Allen
Works well. Feels cheap. Decent price though.
sin.......s
The size is deceiving. It is very small. But radio to work well. Don't know about solar panel etc yet
Jefferson P.
this is a great little radio..happy with it except for i have flip phone..kyocera ,and cord etc doesn't fit ,i wanted this especailly for charging my cell...please.. i see others had a problem also..what can be done thankk you im elderly,and really need this ..
P. Jones
Not sure if it's because it is considerably bigger and more expensive than the ones I have purchased in the past, but I don't really have any complaints about this unit. If I am being finicky, maybe I am not completely thrilled with the volume control adjustment. But that is a very minor quibble. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
Reese M.
It works but it is smaller than I thought.
Nicole S.
Picked up this handy little radio/flashlight combination and so far so good! We lost power for about three hours the other night and it provided a charging station for my phone as well. May grab a few more and give as gifts to friends and relatives.
Michael
I have ordered one for myself and another for my mum who regularly has power outages.Very compact and features rich.Could do with DAB.
LA
I needed the flashlight and the radio so I kept it. But it is extremely small. I thought it was going to be bigger because of the photo. I also figured, smaller, it will last longer on cranking it!
Dezare Dashay
The majority of the radio stations for the city come in well. Lights are super bright, but still needs to be charged.
Guy
Good quality, practical. Love it.
Daji
Took this baby camping into the Washington State Mountains, where the sun doesn't shine, this time of the year! The solar panel still changer even in the slightest amount of sun. The battery alone lasts forever without cranking or charging. The reading light and main light is very bright and works perfectly. Definitely recommend for a Bug-Out-Bag or a hiking kit! I love it!
Justin Lamb
Came 3/4 charged. Battery life looks good
Mohammad Mostafizur Rahman
Good product. To get good radio reception it needs to sit stable with antenna fully extended. Radio is very clear. Extra features such as torch light is very handy as the lights are very bright.
peter james mcneil
Very good radio battery charges quick on the mains and the wind up function for when out camping is brilliant can charge your phone to which is good also has a solar panel which actively charges the radio too this is brilliant if you love to wake up in a tent in the morning when making you coffeee round a fire listening to some music ohh and it's definitely loud and clear
Xandry
The first time I received the radio it had dead battery that refused to charge. I reached out to the company and they quickly send out an replacement. Great customer service and the person who helped me named KiKi from the company was extremely helpful. The radio is great considering it's price range and it comes with replaceable 18650 batteries. The WB channels comes in clear along with the FM and AM also. The flashlight is very bright and the reading light is a nice feature. Lastly, the crank handle charger does provide you with a few minutes of radio or light if you are stuck in an emergency situation without power. For $35, you are getting many features that other radios priced similar doesn't have.
Maf
Purchased for my emergency radio to pack in my emergency pack.Haven't tried all methods of charging.
Opal K.
I charged this up as soon as it arrived. I bought it to be part of a cyclone kit. I unexpectedly had a blackout and pulled the radio out to test how it would work and it was perfect. Radio was clear, lights all worked really well. Phone charged slowly, but effectively. Just make sure you have the right cables for phone connection. Cranking to charge the kit is hard work but not unexpected and is much better than not having all of what it offers. Love it. Money well spent.
Melissa W.
I love this radio, it is small and sounds great. It has two lights that are very bright. The crank is easy to use to charge it. The solar charge works great, I spent a day in the sun and the radio never quit. I love this radio so much I now have two and my mom bought one as well. I recommend if you are looking for a radio.
Vicki Pauvif
Highly recommend. Used the torch and recharger when power went off. Charger is not super fast but did the job.
Amanda Richards
Solid weather broadcast reception. A little noisy when using it to charge phone. Should be able to completely charge a phone before needing to be recharged. Does not take long to charge with the hand crank but you won't need it, the solar panel does a good job.
Rachel
Ordered Saturday night, arrived Tuesday morning! Awesome delivery which was placed in an area out of view of the road and a pic sent. Radio sound is quite amazing for such a small unit and picks up so many channels. The light is super bright too. It's nice and compact and weighs so little. It even comes with a lightning port adapter to charge the iPhone.All in all I am very happy with the product, the service and the delivery.
Rich
Great for camping has so many uses flashlights 3 ways to charge it. Compact size. you can carry in your jacket. Nice weather channel.
Russ R
This was among my eldest grandson's favorite birthday gifts. He keopt returning to it all through his birthday party. So, as a grandfather whose mission in life is to buy his love, I am delighted.
Abigail Kelso
This radio is 100% worth it. It is small and compact in an emergency, easy to carry with you. The light on it is almost blinding if you look into it with several settings for lower light. It winds up and charges great. The radio station come in clear as day and the antenna is sturdy.Absolutely great in an emergency or even at events.
Henry M.
Can't go wrong with this. Solar powered, hand crank available. Bright light, can charge other devices. Great product to have, just in case.
Paula S
Works as claimed. Hope I don't have a need for it but gives peace of mind to know I have it.
susan vitale
What a great little radio this is. Don't hesitate, it's really a good one.
Phyllis Orona
This little solar source radio is great. In case of an emergency this is a nice little gadget to have. It's not very big, which is great. You could hang it onto your purse or backpack. It powers up by the sun or the cranking system, when there is a power outage Will be a much needed item to have handy. it has a USB plug in a type C plug built-in. It also came with the USB cord with a regular android charging tip and it came with a spare apple charging tip. Which was a nice surprise for me. I did not know that was included when you flip up the solar panel, it's a light about an inch by 3 1/2 to 4 inches long, which is pretty bright. It also has a flashlight, light on the side. This is a really nice thing to have. You could take it camping or on a day at the beach or on hike. I was really happy with this purchase.
chikachikawowwow
For son's birthday. He's pretty handy so this will be a nice item that he will actually use
bud majest
It worked fine when I tested it. Haven't had the need to use in an emergency
Audrey G.
I bought this for my son who loves fishing. He can stay at the lake all day and night. When I want to get in touch with him his phone is always dead. I got this as a gag gift but it turned out to be pretty awesome. He loved it, the radio has great signal and the flashlight is bright.
Rodolfo E. Huezo
I was able to give the crank a few turns to check the functionality and tested the AM band to find a news station. I put the unit into my emergency supply kit. I will probably buy one for work as well to stay informed incase of a disaster.
Ninnie
I purchased this to have additional recharging stations. Radio work awesome
Anthony Cutrone
I literally use the auto light feature in my kitchen at night so we dint need to hit a switch. The next morning. I just set the solar top facing outside, and it charges nearly full every day.
HERNAN

Marchioness de Montaigu
I live in hurricane country, so we frequently lose power. I bought this radio for those times when weather updates are important. I failed to look at the dimensions when I bought it, so was surprised to see how small it is. It's works so well and exceeds my expectations, so when reflecting on it I realized the size is an advantage considering what you get and will take less storage space until needed. I cranked it about 5 rotations and was pleasantly surprised how long the power lasts. I can't wait to try out the solar charger.
Shaun Huston
This is a must have for anyone. Quality made, works perfect and at some point may save your life. Add it to your supplies, you won't regret it.
YourReviewPal
This is the best thing for your back. Perfect for somebody who is just getting started in emergency preparedness. It is totally awesome and I was geeking out the entire time I opened . Instructions weren't as detailed as I would have helped, but it was easy to figure out.
Joshua
Exactly what I needed and expected
jolaco
I've been looking for this level of emergency radio for some time and figured I try it out. It provides coverage for several weather channels and the AM/FM radio is decent as well. Having the a flashlight, battery for my cellphone, handcrank and solar charging are other pluses.
Jewels
Works well. Gets good reception. Nice flashlight. Already charged when customer received it.
donna
The bright lights are great with 3 features! A usb port! Battery low, crank it up!!! And a Radio!!! Comes with a carrying strap!
H Johnson
I bought this to put into our emergency kit and decided to use it a few days to see how it works. Surprised me that it doesn't take as much cranking as I anticipated to charge it. It also charged quickly in the sun. The light is so bright that it hurts to look at it. Great value especially for the price.
Sheila Pritchard
High quality item, very happy with my purchase, having so many uses in one item is great, I will be using this often
Joel X.
A little beauty. Put it away for future emergencies. Very happy with it.

I haven't used it long enough to know how well it's going to work but it seem to be made very well.

It work good , have a good radio volume . Is exactly how it was describe
Michael Prater
I received the first one and it wasn't the one pictured but after contacting their customer service they immediately sent out a replacement. Friendly and professional service. Great product and even better customer service. Five stars all the way!
James A.
I'm glad I read the instructions—do not use this product to regularly charge stuff like your phone—it's not built for that. It keeps a charge quite well and has lots of useful features. Hopefully I'll never be in a situation where I need it—but I'm glad I bought it!
oDx
Let me just start out by saying that this radio was great in an emergency. We don't have live tv subscriptions anymore and we use to have to search online or certain apps to get live weather coverage in emergencies. 2 weeks ago our tornado sirens were going off and I was able to grab the radio and instantly tune in to my areas coverage. We were also able to take this radio with us on the move allowing us to stay updated on the storm. So much more convenient than searching for something online. Highly recommended!
Amy Smith
Bought for camping. Works great!
Casey Decker
Bought for my daughter as a birthday gift I took it out and played around with it it seems to work really well the volume on the radio works great easy to tune in the channels the flashlight and the sensor works great on it don't know about charging and the solar
cb
Stay informed faster than the internet and stay prepared plus on the light and charging capabilities and recharging capabilities and price
Tammie
This product will come in handy when we're camping. It has a flashlight and radio. It can charge by solar power, batteries or a wind up handle. The SOS button emits a loud siren when you press and hold it. Press it again to turn the siren off. Portable and handy
Melissa Johnson
I haven't actually had to use this product yet other than just to try it out upon opening it up. I cranked it a few times and the radio worked the lights/sos lighting worked The main reason I ordered it was in case of some type of power outage that was potentially long lasting we would have access to hear news etc...
Robin ballard
It's a great deal for the money. The radio picked up the emergency channels with no problem , the flash lights are bright … will buy another
