Eton ARC FR600 Red American Red Cross Solarlink Hand Crank AM/FM/SW Radio with NOAA and S.A.M.E – Red 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 and S.A.M.E technology.
Never be caught unprepared in the event of an emergency with the self-powered Solarlink FR600 emergency radio. Be informed of important updates as they happen with AM/FM radio and shortwave-band radio, as well as NOAA and S.A.M.E. location-based weather alerts. With 4 different power sources, including hand crank and solar power, and a USB cell phone battery charger, the Solarlink FR600 can go anywhere you need to stay in touch. Take it on your camping trip for safety features like the emergency flasher and siren, or to listen to your favorite songs on your MP3 player while on the boat.
S.A.M.E stands for Specific Area Message Encoding. It’s system of six digit codes that are programmed into the radio to bring only the emergency data for your specific area, such as your county, during an alert broadcast.
ARC FR600-Red 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.
*Please note that if your cell phone battery charger is not USB compatible, a USB cell phone adapter will need to be purchased separately.
