Customer Review: Not worth it
Summary: 1 Stars
This is an intriguing idea for a product, but it's just a terribly produced product. The radio gets almost no reception (and is a pain to turn on). The solar panel doesn't seem to charge up the battery very much at all. The knobs are very flimsy and are hard to keep where you want them. The dynamo charger produces so little electricity that it's odd they even bothered with it. About the only thing it might be good for is charging your cell phone battery, but it's been 6 months since I sent in my request to have one shipped to me and I haven't heard anything from them--not even a confirmation that they received my registration.
Do not even bother with this product.
Description of Et?n FR500 Solarlink (Black)
When your outdoor adventures take you off the grid, you need a device that can fill multiple needs. The Eton FR500 is a compact unit that you can toss in your rucksack and take anywhere. It functions as an AM, FM, and shortwave radio with NOAA weatherband. It also has a flashlight, an emergency beacon, and an emergency siren. Plus, you can use it to charge your cell phone or MP3 player. This little wonder can be powered with the hand crank, or solely by the sun - solar panels make this a very "green" device. Of course, battery power and AC power are also options.Digital Cameras and Photo Categories
