Digital camera reviews of Eton FR300 Emergency Crank Radio Metallic Red
Digital camera Review: No Charger?
Summary: 3 Stars
Radio works fine...a little weak on signal, but it'll do in the city. I can't believe it's offered without a charger and really can't believe how much the charger was to buy separate (plus another shipping charge). Yea, yea, I read that it didn't come with a charger, I just thought I'd crank it and that would be enough. BUY THE CHARGER. I'll need the adrenaline of an oncoming Oklahoma tornado to crank that thing enough.Digital camera Review: No weather band
Summary: 3 Stars
Everything about this radio exceeded expectations except that the weather bands don't work.Digital camera Review: Pretty Good
Summary: 4 Stars
I expected to have the TV channels but I guess they may have changed to product due to the conversion to digital broadcasting. I really wanted the cell phone charger which you send for after designating your cell make and model.Digital camera Review: Safety First
Summary: 5 Stars
We are a VPP Star site, the highest award OSHA gives a plant for safety, so safety is important to us in everything we do and purchase. We researched several weather radios, and bought the Eton FR300 for our business and for numerous employees personal use. Through several terrible storms and a tornado this past month in NE Iowa, the radios and the various options it has exceeded everything we were looking for. I plan to by more for every member of my family!
Digital camera Review: So-so quality but good for emergency use
Summary: 3 Stars
The first one I received was defective, but thanks to Amazon's awesome return procedures, I got a replacement in only a few days. The radio sound is tinny, not a product I would use except for emergencies, but that's why I got it. The hand crank works well to power the radio, so batteries are not required. I'm glad I bought it.
