Charging the Radio

Your Emergency Radio offers three methods for charging its internal battery:

• USB-C Charging: Connect the provided USB-C cable to the USB Input port and a power source. This is the fastest charging method.
• Solar Charging: Place the radio with the solar panel facing direct sunlight. The solar indicator light will illuminate when charging. This method is ideal for maintaining charge or slow charging in outdoor environments.
• Hand Crank Charging: Unfold the hand crank handle and rotate it clockwise or counter-clockwise at a steady pace (approximately 120-150 RPM). One minute of cranking can provide several minutes of radio operation or a small amount of flashlight time. This method is for emergency power generation when other sources are unavailable.
