Description

This hand-crank, solar-charging radio receives AM/FM and weather bands, can charge your smartphone via a USB cord, and works as an emergency LED flashlight. Spin the hand turbine for 60 seconds to get 10-15 minutes of radio and flashlight use or place the emergency radio in the sun for a passive charging option. Plug your phone into the USB port and power will automatically “dump charge” to your phone, just like plugging into the wall. It’s handy in a blackout and great to take on camping trips. It will light your way, provide music around the fire, give you access to weather updates and charge your phone.

Red Cross FRX2 Eton Emergency Radio is rated 3.8 out of 5 by 5.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Prepper from Good features other than USB port to charge CP. I tested all features rigorously. Wall charging & the hand crank for battery life for use of radio & flashlight were good. USB port to charge CP battery lasted less than 2 hours & only increased ph battery life 3%.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jackies from Needed Purchase So far I am happy with this product, but have not had a real good chance to use it. Bought it for the hurricane season, so will see how it works when the time comes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kit10 from Super Features Got this as a gift 3 years ago. I used it on several camping trips early on. I do not give 5 ratings unless items hold up. I had not used this item in over a year and it was stored away. I two days ago I solar charged in direct sun for a day and used it this weekend for a camp out. Worked just like the day I got it. Charged a phone, used the flash light, kids loved the glowed in the dark feature and I let the music of the radio put me to sleep. I love it!
