Climate challenged?
Not anymore. With the SOLARLINK FR370 weather alert radio with solar panel and hand turbine power generator you can stay one step ahead of Mother Nature. This indispensible device is great whether you’re at home, work or experiencing the great outdoors.
Stay alert
With S.A.M.E. technology (specific area message encoding), just enter your S.A.M.E. county code and if there’s a weather alert, advisory or warning you’ll see it—with flashing lights. You can set up to 23 locations so you’ll be safe, wherever you are.
Listen up
Stay in tune and up to date with this AM/FM/NOAA weather band digital radio and alarm clock. If you want more than just the radio, there’s an AUX-input to play your own tunes. And, when you want to listen alone, just plug in your favorite headphones.
You’ve got the power
The SOLARLINK FR370 powers up in multiple ways—via solar panel, dynamo hand crank, DC input or traditional batteries.
Ready, set, go
Crank the hand turbine for 90 seconds and you’ll produce enough power for 5-7 minutes of radio time. Or simply charge it in the sun using the built-in solar panel. You can also use the mini USB cable to charge the built-in rechargeable battery or pop in a few AAA batteries.
Say hello
Crank the hand turbine for 10-15 minutes for 1-2 minutes of talk time. To charge your smartphone, simply plug it into the USB port. Power will automatically “dump charge” to your phone, just like plugging into the wall.
Shine on
The bright LED flashlight is always handy…at home, at the office, or even in the car. And the red flashing beacon is ideal for emergencies.

Batteries
This is a modern, high-tech, digital radio. Unlike older analog radios, these products require more power. Also, when you’re using batteries, they are always powering the display, which never turns off. The play times of alkaline batteries are noted below. If you want longer life, I suggest using the Eveready lithium ion batteries, which last 3 to 5 times longer; available almost everywhere. Also, an AC adapter is available for $10+shipping by calling 1-800-793-6542.
