Description

Keep your phone charged, your radio tuned, and your light on through a storm. This compact unit runs from a hand crank, a solar panel, USB, or its 1000mAh battery, and it receives AM, FM, and NOAA weather bands.

Four ways to power up: hand crank, solar, USB, and a 1000mAh battery, so you can keep radio, light and your phone running when the grid goes down.

Solves
  • losing power during outages or storms
  • dead phone with no way to charge
  • no light in the dark or at camp
  • missing weather alerts (NOAA)

Keep your radio, light, and phone running when the grid goes down

Storm nights leave you with a dead phone and no news. This compact radio gives you light, weather alerts, and a charged phone from a crank, the sun, USB, or its 1000mAh battery.

One Compact Radio, Four Ways to Power It

Four ways to power up

Turn the folding handle for one minute and the unit gives you 15-20 minutes of LED light or radio playback. The solar panel tops up the 1000mAh battery on sunny days, and the micro USB input refills it from a wall outlet or car. When the power is down, you still have a way to run the radio and charge your phone.

Light and weather alerts in one unit

The LED flashlight has its own switch, so you can light a hallway or a tent without tying up the radio. The tuning dial covers AM, FM, and the NOAA weather band, which means storm bulletins come through while the lights are out. One device handles the room light and the news.

Built to take the trip

The body is matte rubberized plastic with a non-slip grip, so it stays in your hand on wet ground or in a dark garage. The chrome telescopic antenna pulls out for better reception and folds flat for the pack. The unit measures 13 x 6.2 x 5 cm, small enough to sit in a kit or a car door pocket. It comes in jet black or fire red.

One Minute of Cranking, Fifteen Minutes of Power

  1. 1
    Crank for one minute

    Turn the folding handle at around 130rpm for one minute. That gives 15-20 minutes of LED light or radio, enough to check the forecast and find your flashlight.

  2. 2
    Pick a band

    Set the band selector to AM, FM, or the NOAA weather band, then use the tuning dial and the analog display to find the station.

  3. 3
    Charge from the sun

    Stand the solar panel in direct daylight to top up the battery while you are at camp or away from the house.

  4. 4
    Plug in your phone

    Connect your phone to the USB output to charge it from the stored battery. Use the micro USB input to refill the radio from a wall outlet or a port.

Questions and answers

Can the hand crank really charge a phone, and how long will it take?
w
Wanelo · seller

One minute of cranking at around 130rpm gives 15-20 minutes of LED light or radio. Phone charging runs from the stored 1000mAh battery through the USB output, so a full phone charge comes from several crank sessions plus sun or USB top-ups. Crank in short bursts whenever you have a spare minute.

Does the 1000mAh battery last through a multi-day outage?
w
Wanelo · seller

The battery is a backup for short to mid-length emergencies, not a generator for a week without power. Use it to keep the radio and phone going through the first night, then add crank sessions and solar charging for longer stretches.

How long does the solar panel need in daylight?
w
Wanelo · seller

Place the panel in direct sun during the day. Charge speed depends on sun strength and cloud cover, so the crank is the quicker option when you need power right away. Solar is best as a steady background top-up while you are out.

Does the NOAA band pick up weather alerts in my area?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. The radio receives AM, FM, and the NOAA weather band. NOAA reception depends on the transmitters near you, so tune to the NOAA band before storm season and check that your local station comes in clearly.

Is the build sturdy enough for camping and rough handling?
w
Wanelo · seller

The housing is matte rubberized plastic with a non-slip grip and a chrome telescopic antenna. It is built for camp, car, and garage use. Keep grit out of the crank and the antenna joint, and store it indoors rather than in a hot car.

How does it compare with a regular power bank or battery flashlight?
w
Wanelo · seller

A power bank runs out and cannot recharge itself, and a battery flashlight adds nothing else. This unit recharges from crank, sun, or USB and also gives you radio and light. If you already own a , this one still covers the case where no outlet is near. One purchase replaces a flashlight, a radio, and a power bank, and the crank and sun cost nothing to run.
