Description

A wind up radio for households preparing for sudden blackouts, with several ways to power it and a built-in torch so news and light are still within reach when the mains goes down.

When the power fails at home, you lose lighting, news updates and phone charging all at once, and the same happens at remote campsites. This emergency radio for power cuts covers those needs with AM, FM and SW reception, plus USB phone charging and an SOS alarm. A fold-out hand crank and a solar panel on top let you recharge it by hand or by daylight when no mains electricity is available. You can also charge the built-in 4000 mAh battery over USB ahead of time, so it is ready before the lights go out. The integrated torch helps you move around a dark room or campsite without hunting for spare candles. Its compact body stands steadily on a shelf and slips neatly into a rucksack.

Manual and Solar Backup
When the mains is out, you can recharge with the hand crank or the solar panel, or use a standard USB cable beforehand. The internal battery holds the charge, so you can keep listening and top up smaller devices without a mains socket.

News and Weather When You Need Them
AM, FM and SW tuning picks up broadcasts carrying regional news and weather reports. The telescopic antenna helps draw in signals indoors and at rural campsites.

Easy to Store and Carry
The lightweight casing fits tidily into an emergency cupboard, a car boot or a travel bag. A carry strap and folding crank make it simple to carry and use.

Safety Extras
An SOS alarm helps you attract attention in an emergency, and the USB output (5V 2A) lets you top up a phone from the 4000 mAh battery. A headphone jack lets you listen privately, while the 3 W speaker delivers clear audio for group listening.
