Frequently Asked Questions
Does this radio require batteries?
No. The hand crank dynamo generates power on demand. Simply turn the crank for approximately one minute to generate several minutes of radio play, flashlight use, or phone charging. This makes it ideal for long-term storage in emergency kits where batteries might expire or leak.
Can it charge a modern smartphone?
Yes. The USB-A output port provides enough power to add emergency charge to a smartphone. Extended cranking sessions are needed for meaningful charge, but even a few minutes of cranking can power a critical phone call or text message.
How loud is the emergency siren?
The built-in siren is designed to attract attention over moderate distances. It is suitable for signaling rescuers or alerting neighbors during an emergency. The siren function is powered by the same hand crank dynamo, so it works even when all other power sources are unavailable.
What is the difference between this and the NOAA weather radio?
This radio receives AM and FM bands, while the NOAA weather radio model (WSK-LCFR-N) also receives NOAA weather alert frequencies, has solar charging, USB-C connectivity, and a larger 2000mAh rechargeable battery. Choose this model for basic AM/FM at a lower price point, or the NOAA model for full weather alert capability.
