Never worry about dead batteries or flat cells again. This tactical equipment features three entirely independent charging mechanisms to guarantee operational performance in any survival scenario:
-
- Solar Panel: Fully optimized to harness sunlight, allowing you to trickle-charge the device during long daytime treks or while resting at camp.
- Heavy-Duty Hand Crank: Instantly generate mechanical power manually. Just 2 minutes of mechanical cranking provides up to 1 entire hour of real-time radio playback or essential emergency lighting.
- Type-C Fast Charging: Rapidly refuel the internal power cell from a standard wall outlet, power bank, or vehicle charging port before heading out into remote locations.
Emergency Power Bank & Smartphone Charger
Equipped with a high-capacity, built-in 2000mAh Lithium-Polymer battery, this emergency solar radio doubles as a portable power bank. Simply connect your smartphone, GPS device, or communications gear via the standard USB output interface to revive dead devices. It provides enough charge to maintain crucial navigation signals, check in with family after an extreme weather event, or place vital emergency rescue calls.
Life-Saving Lighting & High-Decibel Audio Alerts
-
- 3-LED Ultra-Bright Torch: Pierce through pitch-black trails, dark woods, or unlit spaces with a high-intensity, long-lasting beam. The low-energy LED configuration ensures hours of constant illumination without draining your primary battery reserve.
- 120dB SOS Siren: Instantly broadcast a loud distress signal during medical emergencies or outdoor rescue operations. The piercing, high-frequency alarm easily cuts through thick ambient wilderness noise, giving search teams an exact audio anchor to find your location.
All-Weather Performance & Compact Tactical Build
Smaller than a standard soda can and lighter than a tablet, this blue survival tool clips effortlessly to your gear using the included detachable tactical lanyard. Specially calibrated for extreme environmental resilience, it functions perfectly across severe temperatures ranging from a freezing -10°C up to a blistering +60°C. The durable, water-resistant exterior makes it an indispensable tool for wet conditions like kayaking, fishing, or sudden heavy downpours.

Frank Grundy –
Perfect for the UK government’s “Be Ready” advice!
I bought this right after the UK government advised everyone to keep a wind-up radio and torch at home for emergency preparedness. Honestly, it’s the best £30 I’ve spent for peace of mind.
It’s surprisingly compact and smaller than a soda can, but feels incredibly sturdy. I tested the hand crank straight away, and just two minutes of winding gave me a full hour of clear AM/FM reception to catch local broadcasts. The built-in torch is nice and bright, and the fact that it doubles as a phone charger via USB is a massive bonus.
What really sold me is that it’s an emergency alarm as well. The built-in 120dB SOS siren is absolutely piercing and brilliant to have if you ever get stranded or need to signal for help.
If you’re pulling together a household kit to match the government’s checklist, this ticks every single box. I Highly recommend it!
