Esky Emergency Hand Crank Radio 7400mWh with 3 LED Flashlight, AM/FM/NOAA Portable Weather Radio with Built-in 2000mAh Battery, Solar Powered Radio for Indoor Outdoor Survival Camping, SOS Alarm

Used it several times. Seems more durable than others I have owned. Works well. Easy to use and small and compact. Nice to have a back up flashlight you can recharge with the crank. Don't expect the USB charger to charge your phone more than enough to make a quick phone call or send a few texts. Strictly for emergency charging.

UPDATE: bought this for myself and like it so much, i have ordered 3 more as gifts for my family. Love it! Lightweight & compact enough to toss in the car, on hikes, in your backpack,etc. Super easy to use. Nicer than i expected it to be. 👍🏻

This is a neat little thing to have around the house. Living in the Midwest, it never hurts to have something like this just in case one of the various seasons' storms leave you without power. The flashlight lasts a lot longer than I expected on a full charge. It only started to lose it's brightness after around 17 hours, and even then, it was still brighter than the old D battery powered flashlights you could buy for like 4 bucks. Did I mention that it's bright? Because it is BRIGHT. I live in a small apartment, and it light up the room better than my lamp does. The rechargeable light alone makes it worth the purchase price. It works pretty good as a radio, with volume that is louder than one would expect from such a small package. It has a telescopic antenna, but I didn't need it to pick up any of the major stations in the area. The NOAA station comes in as clear as any other quality weather radio, and is a nice little feature in a gadget that is packed with them. The main reason that I bought this product is that it charges your phone! You can never have too many charging devices, and this feature was a deal maker for me. It probably won't give you a full charge, but it will give you enough to make important calls if you need it to. I haven't been able to test the solar charging, as it's been all overcast days around here lately. The crank is a nice touch though. It'll take a lot of cranking to generate enough power, but it'll be worth it in the case where that's your only option. Overall, I really like this little thing. It's a handy gadget to have in case I ever need it.

Works great, it got rained on and didn't short

This little radio packs a pretty big "VALUE" .. Well made seems like it will last as it is a lot of quality for the price. I also found the perfect case for it also on amazon . "Aproca Case Compatible with Retekess V115 Shortwave Radio, Portable Storage Bag for Accessories (Case Only)" Fits this radio like it was custom made perfectly, no forcing with room for a power cord and a pack of batteries. This way all you need in one place at home in your pack or the trunk of your car.

This little jewel would provide invaluable during emergencies. It will provide 50 lumen LED light, AM/FM/NOAA radio and even a way to charge phones. The items that come packaged in the box are:- 1x Esky weather radio 1x mini USB charging cable 1x 2.5mm output charging cable 1x 2.5mm connector to USB converter 1x User Manual 1x Warranty card This device has 2 ways to charge during emergencies when electricity is not available. It can be charged by the hand crank on the side or the solar panel on the top. It can also be charged by other means like USB wall charger and USB cord from your computer. I was even able to charge this device from the USB outlet in my truck. The 50 lumen LED light is very bright. I was able to run the light for 15 hours on a fully charged device. The radio works well and picks up AM/FM and also the NOAA weather stations. Tuning in the stations is easy and they come in relatively clear. The antenna is a little over 9 inches long and lets down and folds compactly on top on the unit. The 2 charging ports are on the back of the device and they are covered by a rubber flap that protects them from the weather. The device is made from a sturdy plastic with almost a rubbery feel to it. Light moisture and rain will shed off the device although it is not designed to be completely waterproof. It can be carried by a handy lanyard cord that is attached to the back. It is light and compact at only 7.7 ounces and the dimensions are Length 5" X Height 2 3/8" X Thickness 1 3/8". It can easily be carried in the pocket and does not take up much space if packed in an emergency bug bag out or hiking backpack.. One of the best features about this device is that is will charge cell phones. I was able to put enough charge on an apple iPhone and an LG smart phone to make calls with. For all the features wrapped up in this emergency device, one cannot go wrong by purchasing it especially at the affordable price. It would be money well invested during an emergency or when camping, hiking or boating where there is no power.

I got this as an emergency radio and didn't realize how tiny this radio was. Its about twice the thickness and about the size of a cigarette case. The sound on the radio terrible, the dials are very stiff and hard to turn, not many channels come in on the FM radio (I lived in Austin) and I couldn't get anything on the Weather channel. Despite the mediocre quality of this radio bc I could get some channels, the flashlight works and the charger works. I used the hand crank to power this up, not plugging it in because I wanted to ensure the radio could be powered up if all electricity was lost and I couldn't plug it into my car or one of my battery power chargers.

Seems to be a very good consumer item. It has all the features that are necessary when the power goes off. Radio in 3 bands: AM/FM/NOAA. Power generated by hand crank or by Solar Cells charge the 7400 mWh internal battery and allows charging of cellphones, or other devices when the power is out with an included USB-A connector and a cable that converts USB-A to USB-C. Oh yes. it includes a flashlight with 3 bright LEDs. So in any emergency it will prove extremely useful.

Good product. Working well

This is an awesome little radio. It lasts for hours on a full charge and tops up so easy in the sun. The torch was a life saver when I had a black out. A great little unit to have around the house. Small but powerful.

I saw lots of positive reviews about this little emergency radio-flashlight device, and I must say that it surpassed my expectations. Now, the little speaker is not going to knock your socks off with quality, but for what this is, the speaker is more than adequate with very clear and unmuffled sound, not tinny sounding as I expected to be. It would be quite acceptable for anyone who likes to listen to radio broadcasts, and who doesn't demand audiophile quality sound. It really is quite good considering the small size of the whole device. It is smaller than I thought, but that's a plus if you plan to take it camping or anywhere really. It would fit neatly into a backpack and weighs almost nothing. The flashlight is not super powerful, but it too is more than adequate if you find yourself in a dark garage or other place and drop your keys, or need to go to the bathroom at night when camping without waking everyone else up with a really bright light, or even for just walking around. It will light your way just fine. I think that for $26 it was a great deal. I sure could have used it a few weeks back when we were hit by a tornado here in Ottawa and the power was out for a long time. It would have been nice to have had this just for the radio feature to know what was going on in the city. I can't really vouch for the sturdiness of the device, as it is small and made of plastic and I don't feel like wasting money just to throw it around to see how well it holds up, but it seems that with careful use it would last just fine. I have no idea how long it would take to charge it even with a strong sun, but I plan to keep it charged up with the (included) micro usb cable and only use the solar charger feature in an emergency. Update: I fully charged it with the usb cable and then set it in my window, which seems to keep it fully charged with the solar panel, even when using it for a while listening to the radio, and it keeps fully charged, even though the sun has been clouded over the past couple of days. It seems as if just bright daylight, even without much sun, will let the solar panel keep it fully charged. Excellent performance so far. I don't know how long it would take to fully charge with just the solar panel, but it seems fairly efficient so far. All in all, a good deal on a nice piece of kit for emergencies, camping or hiking.

Good

It's small and lightweight works well as we had a power outage and this got us info on the radio, while the radio was on it glows like a night light. The flashlight was good, and well loved it enough bought 2 more 1 for each kid and us! Perfect for camping, hiking, day trippin' emergency use in the home...great buy! Thank you!
