Customers are saying

Customers find value in the Emergency Crank Weather Alert Radio's ease of use, overall performance, and convenient size for carrying. Many appreciate its weather alert feature and the inclusion of a flashlight and AM/FM radio. The hand crank and multiple charging options are also seen as beneficial, while some customers feel the battery life could be improved.

    it is a nice size and has a lot of features, but the battery life could use an upgrade. All in all, it does everything I need it to do.

    About the only complaint I have on this is the battery doesn't seem to last very long when its not plugged in. Other than that its simple to use and seems to be well made. The emergency alert is LOUD and gets your attention easily. Overall, good product, I would recommend it.

    Love this little guy! Came in handy during Hurricane Beryl. Worked like a charm. Better yet, it provided my special needs daughter with some white noise that she needs in order to sleep well. It’s not a feature, just what happens when there’s no signal on the WX channel.
