Out of box the radio is charged. The radio, flashlight, reading light and sos alarm works. I’ll comeback with an update on the solar panel and charging abilities. The size is compact and can fit in a go bag.

Pretty good and versatile. Not disappointed. Radio works fine, and the flashlight is plenty bright, while the SOS button is pretty darn loud. In all, it's Smaller than I expected and the crank is a bit awkward to use but it works in an emergency situation so I can't complain too much. Light weight enough, though I kinda wish it had a belt clip for hikes. 9/10, could use an indicator for battery life while charging/cranking as you sorta just have to guess.

This thing is revolutionary, and pretty well made. If they made a version with Bluetooth and a better speaker I would love to know - I would get that too! A lot of smart stuff going on here, sure this will save or rescue lives. Pretty impressive!

After fully charging the radio, I let in run to determine the battery life. After five full days and one full phone charge, it was down to one light or 0-25%. I can't comment on the quality or effectiveness of the solar charging (though I find these rarely effective on any product). The crank charge seems to work well and is surprisingly quiet compared to other radios I have tried. Sound quality is also very good. No complaints.

This is a useful emergency item to have around and I am highly satisfied with this product. There are similar products which are priced cheaper but I voted for the bigger capacity battery and compact design.

When it comes to portable electronic devices, I prefer those that don't require batteries that have to be recycled at the end of their useful lives. I purchased this solar radio in the unlikely event that it would be necessary to survive an emergency. However, I use it almost every day to follow various talk radio and sports stations while sitting outside in the sun. Its antenna is sensitive enough to pick up all of my favorite stations, and its speaker system is excellent. I particularly like the blue battery lights that indicate its level of charging, and the crank system is easy to use and definitely extends the life of the battery charge, although I would recommend using the crank to charge the battery from 0 to 100 percent. It would take too long and probably wear out the internal components quicker. My only criticism of this device is that it does not have a wired earphone connection to quietly listen to the radio around people. Other than that, this radio is worth the cost.

This radio is compact but packs a lot of punch in it. Flash light has two settings, one a flash light style direction and the other to light up the room. Has an option to do ambient light by glowing from the inside. Multiple options to power with solar, crank or plug in usb. Has NSEW compass on top, SOS call. The radio sound is really good. I was able to connect to stations immediately without antenna on FM, AM required antenna. Weather radio was clear and easy to locate station for our area. Battery was fully charged when it arrived. Highly recommend this little gem. I live in a hurricane prone area so it will come in handy!!! I highly recommend!!

Let me start by saying that like many people, I sometimes don't get a product until after I find myself in a situation where said product could have come in handy. Recently where I live, we experienced a power outage between one day and 7 Days. I was amongst the people who was out of power for 3 Days. During those 3 days, life was a little inconvenient. Because of my situation, I need to stay connected to the outside world. Having a radio like this is wonderful because it will help. But added bonus of the solar charging is great so that if the juice runs out, you can get more thanks to good old regular sunlight. Although the flashlight won't do me any good personally, I am sure that for those with working eyeballs, it will be much appreciated. The fact that it has a battery bank for your phone is a plus but it is not the main reason why I purchased it. Personally, I think a dedicated battery Bank will do better for this situation. I also like the fact that it has an SOS siren. The thing is loud. Definitely works. All in all, I would say get it. Yes, there are other similar radios on the market with less features or that cost less. However, this one is made Solid, it is light, it is easy to use, and for those who don't have working eyeballs, it is completely tactile so a person who can see can use it even with their eyes closed.

The day I got this radio, I had it on for a bout 4-6 hours total that day. And it still had 2 or 3 lights lit up! That same night (after not charging it once) I accidently left the reading light on all night (about 9 hours), and the light was still on! Now I know this can weaken the battery, but im still impressed! Now here's a really impressive part: the radio was completely dead, so I decided to do ONE single crank to see what would happen. It turned on instantly. So I gave it about 5 more cranks and it was on for over a minute, and if I hadn't turned it off, I'm sure it could have stayed on for much longer!As for money, I think this radio is one of the cheapest radios that is actually high quality! It's easy to use, it has many features that will be very useful in case of emergency! The dials are easy to turn, it can pick up signals from pretty far away, and it was definitely the best choice.10/10 reccomended!
