I love testing all sorts of gear. There have been camping chairs, lights, powered coolers, battery packs, and more. The latest bit of kit I am adding to my off-road stuff is this cheap, lightweight emergency radio.
For under thirty bucks, this thing serves as:
- an AM/FM/Wide Band radio
- NOAA Alert system
- Phone/Device Charger
- Flashlight
- SOS/Alert Device
It features a solar power strip for powering up. But it also has a hand crank, an input for powered charging, and can also accept AA batteries. It’s an inexpensive way to add a bit more peace of mind for when you’re off the beaten path.
