5000 Emergency Climate Radio with AM/FM/NOAA/SW, 5 Methods Powered Photo voltaic Hand Crank Alert Radio with LCD Show&SOS, Transportable Radio with Cellphone Charger, Flashlight, Studying Lamp, Headphone Jack

Love all the ways to charge and work it, even reg. Batteries.
I use in power outages. Make sure to keep charges by usb. Also put in window to help keep solar charged. And I keep reg. Batteries on hand. A prolonged outage requires many sources of power. I have power banks that I have used when charge runs low, but having solar and crank are great. But most of all having regular battery use makes it a perfect emergency radio. There is am/fm that gets decent reception, not throwing a party with it. Gets weather bands. Decent antenna. Has a weather alert system, also an emergency alert separate. It is digital which my son loves. The flashlight is bright, and the flip up light is very bright. In the dark it is like a lamp, point up to ceiling and the room is lit. I now have two, get it now they seem to be going to a bigger rechargeable radio minus the reg. Batteries, not smart for a long outage or trip.

Quite all-inclusive but needs battery maintenance
The CR1009Pro does and has basically all the things you could cram into an emergency radio like this. Except USB-C.Shortwave radio, a headphone jack, a 5000mAh battery, 3xAAA battery backup, a nylon carrying handle, a replaceable battery and a digital radio tuner may be difficult to find on other radios, especially in combination. And it has a backlit LCD display that shows battery level, frequency, time and whatever else.Has a flashlight at the front with a low/high mode, and a reading light at the top, also with a low/high mode. They’re decent enough. Same goes for the speaker. This is for listening to the radio, not throwing a hootenanny and/or shindig.It of course also has AM and FM radio, a solar panel and crank for emergency power, and a USB out for charging stuff. And an SOS button that makes a red light at the front flash and the speaker emit an annoying noise. Has NOAA WX weather radio alert stuff, which I presume can be useful for people in the US.The antenna is about 24cm. Could probably be longer to increase the chance of better reception. Reception under circumstances beyond just sitting in my home, is not something I’ve tested, but I’m not too confident. Seems kind of touchy, but it might be fine.One thing I’ve found to be questionable is how well the included battery holds a charge. Don’t know if this is normal for this type of battery (2170 li-ion), but I charged the thing fully, put it in a closet for around 7 months, and now it’s completely dead. Seems like unwanted behavior for a product like this. I missed or forgot this information, but noticed now that the manual implies that with power off, the battery will gradually discharge until completely empty and puts that number at 6500 hours. Don’t know when exactly my battery got depleted, but I took it out of the closet at roughly 5000 hours.So do keep in mind that you can’t just put this radio in storage and expect it to be ready, you will need to occasionally check up on the battery and charge as necessary. I’d want to do that maybe once every two months.And it does not seem to want to turn on with only the 3xAAA backup. Tried putting in fresh batteries and nothing. Either the backup in my radio is busted or it can only switch to it if the radio is on when the main battery runs out. Maybe an area that could be improved in a future revision.UPDATE: Roughly a month after charging it until it told me it was fully charged, I turned it on to check the battery level and it’s now down to 3 bars.

Reception worked at home and in a National Forest with sketchy cellular service.
Tried all the radio bands, alarm, and lights. All of them worked with a fully charged battery. Expect the same with the backup replaceable batteries or using the hand crank. I recognize these little solar cells can’t generate a full charge but nice to have if needed. Looking forward to trying it out charging my cell phone, tablet, and using the earphone Jack. It is very lightweight and has a small footprint. Easy to pop into my backpack for hiking, camping, or emergency weather evacuation.

It works
I’ll be perfectly honest I bought this for the NOAA weather stations and the reading light and being solar powered. That it does excellently. The rest of the radio reception is sketchy at best the antenna sucks. When camped out I use a jumper wire to connect it to my ham radio antenna and then I get something resembling decent radio reception in the other bands. This is this is one of those you have to push the button or hold it down so it scans through the frequencies. It only stores the last frequency that it was on you can’t program anything else. Needless to say it’s a bit of an SOB if you’re trying to go through this shortwave stations there’s no jumping to the individual short way bands and adjusting from there you have to start at the top the bottom and go up or down through the scan feature. The alternative is even worse by having to push the button up or down individually.Other than that it seems like it’s decent quality as far as construction goes the sound isn’t too bad on it. And it does have if you want to turn it on the weather alert where it sits in standby mode and alert you if they have an emergency weather situation. Like I said it does what I bought it for so can’t complain really if I want to listen to shortwave I have real radios for that and I don’t have to worry about messing them up bouncing around on the dash of the truck
