Review: The choice of power options makes this radio a good choice. Living geographically between Philadelphia and Allentown, the radio picks up both weather stations with no problem. Sensitivity is more than adequate on AM and FM, and short wave is OK, but tuning short wave can be a long process. Flashlight is a handy plus, and the price was reasonable. Sound is good, considering the relatively small speaker.
Review: I own a lot of radios, and have owned a lot of 'emergency' type radios. I would say I'm well acquainted with modern radios. I really like this radio. First, what this is and what this isn't. It's an AM/FM/SW/WX radio made for emergency, camping or backpacking type use. It's not your AM DX or SW base station. That said, this is a radio that if you only could have one, this wouldn't be a bad choice, just not the best choice. The build quality on this is pretty good. It's about the size of a red brick. The plastic case is thick and should withstand dropping onto a hard surface. I'll let you test that out though. The buttons are nice and responsive. The handle is very basic but it's strong and adjustable. I've read and seen complaints about the handle covering the solar panel. It's not a big deal, it easily pulls to the side. Not really an issue at all. The whip antenna is about 14" long. The lights are bright. One side has a rubber cover for jacks, with 3 buttons for lights and the emergency siren. The rubber cover stays in place fine, and the 2 USB and headphone ports are solid. The 3 buttons for the 2 lights and emergency siren are solid. Some reviews I've read mention how the emergency button is not protected and can be set off on accident. No, not really. It is unprotected, but does require a long button press to activate. Also, if the radio is locked, the buttons don't function anyway. It's really easy to use. There is no memory, but you do get a decent scan by pressing and holding the tune buttons. I don't think anyone would have any problems using this radio. No instructions required for the most part. Foregoing high end features allows this to be easily controlled by the buttons without having to know codes or shifts to get something done. Which is good, because I received no instructions with this radio. Tuning is great. Very responsive on AM/FM and I was able to picrk up 2 WX stations in the area. I'm not in a good area for SW, but attaching a long wire to the antenna helps. There are no antenna inputs, so a wire antenna is really the only option for SW, but usually that's all that's needed. Carry some wire with you or one of those roll up portable SW antennas. The display is very easy to read and has a nice backlighting to it. This was one of the reasons I went for this radio. The display is a standard size but the whole display is mainly used for frequencies. This is important if you rely on reading glasses and don't have them. The hand crank is solid, I've had ones that feel like you're going to break them. The solar panel is competent. Here's the thing about them: You're likely never going to have to use them, but if you do, they're going to work well enough. What I've done is charged the internal Li-ion battery and stored 3 AAA batteries in the battery compartment (taped ends and upside down so as not to discharge) in case they're needed. I'm not concerned about the solar panel or crank, they're there in case there are no other options and they will work. I will likely recharge this using a solar powered 30000 mAh battery pack in an emergency. Overall, it's a good little radio. It's built well, it's inexpensive, and it's probably going to work. The buttons and screen are big enough for the elderly to use no problem. Same with kids. I wouldn't hesitate to take this as a travel radio, it should pack well. Easy to attach to a pack if you're hiking. It's in that sweet spot of quality, function, and price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where is this unit made?**
A: A couple of questions:
1.  Where is it made?    China.   Like most products these days, electronics, medical supplies and even medications, it is made in China
2.  Does it get a sticky coating?   I have had 2 radios that did get sticky.   This one is made of a hard plastic and I do not for see that happening with the material used in construction.
3. Size:  This thing is not as big as one might think.  It is compact and will easily fit into a back pack leaving considerable room for a bag of nachos or a couple of MREs and other goodies. 
RECOMMENDATIONS is rechargeable batteries ( 3 each AAA size) BUT, I do not see how they can be recharged by the unit (but maybe they can!   There is a switch that MUST be made when these are installed (which could allow for recharging).  If standard AAA batteries are used, it then must be switched back.    So, I THINK ((meaning I do not know for a fact) that this switching will allow for the recharging of the rechargeable Lithium batteries that YOU install (I think there is another one installed that provides basic functionality.  Unit comes switched for use with standard AAA batteries (not supplied).
4.  Can you plug this thing into a wall outlet?  Not without an adaptor.  It has a USB cord.  Many cell phone recharging cords now have wall plugs that a USB connector plugs into the side (or top?) allowing one to use house current.  So, all you need is an outlet with a USB jack or a plug from a cell phone that allows for the use of a USB plug.
5.  Antenna.   No, this antenna is not removable like your car antenna (those that have that whip looking thing on the right front of your car. 
If you are that deep into electronics, then you will know (there is a mathematical formula) for creating the length of antenna you need.   I would say one can wire another antenna to this one and adjust the 'electrical" length by adjusting the existing antenna.  May if you in Omaha, you can pick up Sidney, Australia!
2nd Recommendations:  Get the Rechargeable batteries,, toggle the switch  to Lithium batteries, plug it into a wall outlet, turn volume to low, an (after selecting your nearest NOAA station) and you SHOULD get an audible warning when the weather gets nasty.  At this point, even if you lose power, you will be fully charged.  If done near a doorway, you can grab the radio on the way to the shelter.

**Q: Can i charge this radio with regular aaa batteries that are not the rechargeable kind?**
A: Hi, if you find that the built-in battery of this weather radio cannot be charged, please check whether the "battery tab" is removed first, and then check the charging function. If the problem still remains, please feel free to contact us to solve the problem.

**Q: Can the li-ion battery be replaced with a nimh battery so it can be recharged with a nimh charger?**
A: Hi,Nimh batteries generally have a voltage of 1.2-1.5V, and the CR1009 has a built-in 18650 lithium battery of 3.7V, so the Nimh batteries that are common in the market cannot be used on our weather radio

**Q: What type of AC power cable should I purchase for this unit?**
A: Hi, this weather radio only comes with a Micro-USB to USB cable, you need to charge the device plugged with a 100-240V AC plug(not included). If you want to charge your phone, we suggest you use your own charger cable.

*by E***S on 7 February 2026*

Very clear reception on both the FM RADIO AN NOAA Weather channel with the antenna up. Put ear plugs in when you test the emergency sound; it is very loud, which is a good thing if seeking help. I purchased the yellow color as I thought it would be easiest to spot if dropped in the grass/weeds. I purchased and inserted the batteries right away so I am prepared. I also charged it as I didn’t know how full the charge was. Great small size, light weight seems sturdy even though it is plastic. Mine doesn’t quite sit flat on a flat surface due to ever so slightly bottom seam not flush. This is not a deal breaker for me. The one I purchased for my daughter sits perfectly flush/flat on a surface. I haven’t used mine yet because I bought it strictly for Weather Emergencies. I’m hoping my daughter will remember to bring hers on camping trips. I think it’s perfect for camping, hiking or other extender outdoor activity.
