Customer Review: Works great
Summary: 5 Stars
I have ordered solar radios in the past and this is much improved. I was surprised it was so small, but it feels like it's well made and it works great. I've been using the solar and crank, and it always works. It's comforting to know that if the electricity goes out this winter I can listen to my solar/crank radio to find out why I'm going to freeze to death. I've also used the flashlight and it does give off enough light to find my way around my yard at night. I really like it and am considering buying another one for the car.Customer Review: Awesome product

I thought this was going to be larger, and for a moment, was disappointed. However, once realizing how functional this unit is, I quickly changed my mind. I keep it in my Purse! Takes up little room and I always have light :) When camping, the NOAA lets us know the weather, leave it out and the sun charges it for you, forget to leave it in the sun, my 7 y/o winds it up, and then we listen to the radio until bed. Durable and light. Will charge your cell phone, but make sure you have the correct adapters. I love it!Customer Review: Excellent investment

The American Red Cross FR150 is every bit what it claims to be. AM/FM/Weather bands all are very clear. The crank was used only once - on the initial charge up. After that the solar panels have been powering the radio. I have used it at least 8 times so far for extended times of 2 hours or longer without it ever fading or going out.
Living in Hawaii where hurricanes are a threat every year this radio is in our preparedness kit. Definitely a wise investment on my part. Mahalo & Aloha.
Customer Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter got this for her daddy for Christmas. It is made pretty well. Like others have said it is small. But it works great for an emergency kit. We use the flashlight option quite a bit. Especially when we can't find the battery operated one. The radio works quite well. We used it in the country and also when we got back to the city. So the reception was pretty got in both areas. I'm thinking of buying one of the larger ones. Because I like this so much.Customer Review: Radio, Flashlight, Phone charger
Summary: 5 Stars
Great little radio. And I do mean little. I've put off buying a self-powered radio for my emergency kit because so many were larger than I wanted. With several ways to obtain power, a built-in flashlight, and the ability to charge my cell phone [I requested the proper tip for my phone from the manufacturer online and quickly received it for no extra charge] this device is an esxcellent addition to my kit. And I like the red color.
