Review on 2021 Upgraded AONCO Solar Hand Crank Portable Radio: Power Bank, SOS, Flashlight, Reading Lamp, NOAA Weather Radio for Household and Outdoor Emergency by Ricky Mayo

fits emergency kit

I've never had an emergency radio but since moving south I appreciate the difference in weather compared to the west coast. My radio arrived quickly after ordering and seems to be doing everything as described; There are several ways to get light, charge your device, and tune in to your local weather station. The sound is better than/reminiscent of 70's transistor radios on FM (who listens to AM?) but I'm more interested in getting weather alerts in an emergency. I love that it's compact and comes with a tether/hanging strap with clip. One thing about the design that I would change is the location of the flashlight button: holding the device to charge with the grip makes it very easy for me to press that button and turn on the flashlight. Maybe it's just me.

Pros
  • SOS alert for your safety
Cons
  • Doubtful

Bought it for an emergency, haven't needed it yet but it seems to deliver what is supposed to.
