Customer Review: Nice features; but missing some things...
Summary: 3 Stars
On the surface, this radio seems to have everything: compact size, am/fm radio bands, tv and weather bands, and the ability to crank it for power and charge your cell phone in a pinch. It does have those things, however, it does not come with a ac/dc cord to plug it up (which is not mentioned) or a converter to plug a cell phone charger into. So now we are trying to find both and not having much success. A great emergency radio, but don't count on being able to charge your cell phone or plug it in during non-emergency times.Customer Review: EMERGENCY CRANK RADIO
Summary: 5 Stars
Everyone should own an Eton emergency crank radio. It will run off an adapter, off batteries or by hand crank. Whether you live on the East coast (hurricanes), in the Midwest (thunderstorms & tornadoes), or on the West coast (earthquakes), you can never tell when an emergency will require the use of a radio. Even if you only have to use it once, it will more than pay for itself. It is also great out on a boat. I have used it a few times just to experiment with it's capabilities, and am very pleased.Customer Review: Another Great Eton Product
Summary: 5 Stars
i bought the eton fr 300 to keep on standby in case of power outages. i have used this model quite a bit since i received it to test the reliability. it has a nice large speaker with excellent sound. the radio and weather stations all work well, the tuner is on the money. the light works good but would be better if it had a couple more led bulbs. the brightness is good but could be a little brighter. the crank feels sturdy. overall, this is a great radio that i would trust in case of an emergency.Customer 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!

I love this thing!
This is my second Eton product and believe that they are making a great product at the right price. It has a great form factor and does not eat the batteries. The alarm function during weather alerts is loud (scared my wife at 11:30 at night!) The light is good and the blinking red is also bright. The body is rubberized which means a no slip radio when having to crank it when wet. I give it a 9 out of 10. Great job Eton!
