Customer Review: Doesn't work
Summary: 2 Stars
I really wanted this radio. I like the looks of it, but I had a couple problems with it. At first it wouldn't charge. I could use the batteries and pick up a weather channel. Eton sent me a new rechargeable battery, and it didn't work either. Then I realized that the connector was loose. Then the charge held, but now I couldn't pick up a weather channel. Not even static. The radio looked good, customer service was great, but the radio was not. I'm afraid to buy another.Customer Review: Best friend thru Hurricane Ike
Summary: 5 Stars
I went seven 1/2 days with no electricity following Hurricane Ike and didn't use one battery. Love this radio. Yes, I had to crank and crank to listen to the radio, but it gave me something to fiddle with - and the light stayed on long and strong without recranking, whether the radio was on or no.
Don't know if the VHF TV Band will work after digital transition in Feb 2009, but I'd buy any Eton crank radio on the strength of my good experience with this.
Customer Review: Emergency Radio
Summary: 5 Stars
Received this emergency radio several weeks ago, and I have used it several time since then (thank the Lord not in an emergency situation though!). It worked great out of the box. Did everything that was promised it would do. The only draw back is that I still have not received the cell phone adapters that I sent for when I received the radio. I guess it takes the company awhile to get them into the mail to me? Otherwise, a great emergency radio!Customer Review: Little powerhouse
Summary: 5 Stars
Since we haven't yet had a real emergency, I can't speak to its use in that capacity, but this little box of energy does everything it claims to do. Use the hand crank, and the flashlight and radio work beautifully. In fact, the sound from the radio is clear and loud. I have other Eton products, and they are small compact wonders, in my opinion. You really don't need an emergency to enjoy them, but think how useful they will be when one occurs.Customer Review: Eton FR400 Hand Crank Radio and Power Generator (Red)
Summary: 4 Stars
Shortly after purchasing this radio our electric was off for six days. I had the radio turned on for six days, 24 hours a day. I am still using the same batteries in the radio. This is a good radio that I recommend to anyone considering one. I am pleased with my radio and would purchase it again.Eton FR400 Hand Crank Radio and Power Generator (Red)
