The combination of NOAA, AM/FM, a crank and a flashlight makes sense for a basic emergency kit. I like that the controls appear straightforward instead of relying on an app.

When the power goes,
the news keeps coming.
A pocket-size NOAA weather radio that keeps working when the power and the cell network go down.
Worried your phone will be your only source of news in a storm?
Cell service and internet can drop out along with the power. NOAA Weather Radio is broadcast by the National Weather Service over the air, so you can hear what the storm is doing with no signal bars at all.

Good questions
Do I need batteries?
No. A fold-out hand crank, a solar panel on top and a micro-USB input all charge the built-in rechargeable battery.
Which stations does it receive?
The NOAA weather band (WB 162.400 to 162.550 MHz) plus AM and FM, through a telescoping antenna.
Can it charge my phone?
Yes. The USB output gives your phone an emergency top-up for a call or a text while the power is out.
How big is it?
Pocket size, about 5 in long, with a wrist strap. It fits a glovebox, tackle box, backpack or emergency kit.

HOW IT WORKS
Ready when the grid goes down
Hear the storm, not the static
It receives the NOAA weather band plus AM and FM through a telescoping antenna, so you get weather updates and local news with no cell service and no internet.
Turn the crank when the power is out
The fold-out crank generator recharges the built-in battery when there is no outlet and no sun. A few turns and the radio keeps talking.
Let the sun top it up
Set it on a windowsill or a dashboard and the solar panel on top tops up the battery in daylight. Before storm season, charge it by micro-USB.
Light and a phone top-up
The 3-LED flashlight has its own button for the moment the lights cut out, and the USB output gives your phone an emergency top-up for a call or a text.
