Review on KITPIPI Emergency Solar Hand Crank Radio 2021: Upgraded Portable Weather Radio with Power Bank, SOS Alarm & Flashlight by Emmanuel Winschel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Phenomenally cool! 10 stars!

Everyone should have one of these multifunctional radio/lights/clock/chargers! This is the most amazing device in terms of size and price! I spent a very pleasant hour playing with it and testing it in every way! THAT is so much for such a small price! As a Florida resident (Hurricanes, Lost Power) and camper this should be a must see and it could save a life! There are SO many ways to power it; Solar powered, rechargeable lithium ion battery via included USB port, 3 AAA batteries OR hand crank! The hand crank is what I made first (in fact, as soon as I took it out of the box on my porch, the sun started powering it and a little green light came on)! So, I plugged this little baby in (it's a bit bigger than the little transistor radio of yesteryear, btw), I just cranked it up for 3 minutes and I had a BRIGHT light, a smaller but equally bright LED light. a light hidden under a solar panel AND I set off an alarm so loud my neighbor came over to ask what it was. And I turned on the radio for more than half an hour and kept playing with the lights and the alarm clock! Then I realized that it can charge my phone! Wonderful! So I turned it on for another 3 minutes and plugged in my phone which was at 63% charge and about an hour later I was back and my phone was at 89% charge and still charging! I also tried everything with three AAA batteries and of course everything worked equally well.! I just love the fact that when I have NO battery power, no AAA batteries available and no daylight to get solar, I still have the option to just spin a little crank for three minutes and power over to have my phone, a radio to listen to, a light to see and an alarm clock to call for help! This is the BEST deal ever! Everyone should get one! Love it! PS: Don't forget to set the little button below to AAA or Li-Ion (nothing will happen if you don't connect it to the correct power supply)! Thank you!

It works well it picks up radio stations and it also has a solar panel to charge which is great
