Good Camping Radio
Got a used in very good conditionPrice was still a little high $65 from the reg new price of $70, I like that it is made in North America.I like that most of this is analog, that makes it very energy efficient. Like the built in lithium battery, wish it was LiFePo for recharge duty cycle but not bad. Good options micro usb USB and 6v charging ports still have to see if it is output/input. Best of all it takes standard 6v Double AA batteries.I like the crank and solar options might be a little gimmicky if it cannot run off of this exclusively.Good sound quality, I will have to test this in the mountains for reception.I like the battery and channel lock on indicator light and the NOAA alert setting. The silicone handel with nylon strap has a nice feel. The plastic body is thick but it could use some silicone bumpers especially in the corners.The speaker port could also use weatherproofing.Wish Canada had separate all English / French / mixed Weather exclusive channels, but that is not the radio issue.I am happy and would recommend this radio.

Really nice little radio
Love this radio, compact with everything needed for an emergency. However, when using hand crank the power does not seem to last long - maybe I am doing something wrong. Specified charger not given, (made in and sold USA) but can charge Ni-MH Battery with lead supplied - I use my mobile phone plug to connect and it seemed to charge the main battery ok (5V-USB). Not tried it but the manual states the solar panel will only charge in direct sunlight but takes a long time - days. Not tried all the other gadgets like charging mobile phone from it etc. may be best to have batteries as a standby inside too, but maybe best to take tyem out when charging.
