Eton FR300 Emergency Radio

We readily admit that this is not the sexiest gadget out there, but depending on where you live, it may be a pretty necessary one. The Eton emergency radio packs in features like AM/FM radio (of course), built-in LED light, flashing red emergency light, an emergency siren, as well as Cell Phone charger. And of course, since you may run out of juice, it has a wind-up generator (that’s what the funny thing sticking out of the side of it is). Amazingly, cranking for a minute and a half will give you 40 to 60 minutes of operation. If you’re stocking up on batteries because you’d rather not have to wind it up, the Eton runs on Ni-MH and AA batteries. Order soon and you can get it shipped for free. And to further guilt you into buying one, Eton is donating 5% of sales to the American Red Cross.

Features:

  • AM/FM Radio
  • 7 NOAA weather channels
  • Built-in cell phone charger
  • Wind-up generator
  • Runs on Ni-MH or 3 AA batteries
  • built-in LED light
  • Flashing red emergency light

Price: $49.99
