China Dynamo Radio

I have some low cost China made Dynamo Radios, usually with LED light(s).

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Model: RD339. No brand (Generic).

This model has not only Radio function but many other functions and not only Dynamo power but also many other power sources.

Functions

1) FM-AM Radio with a loudspeaker

2) Flash Light (far sight)

3) Lamp (near sight for seeing / reading in dark)

4) Siren or Burglar Alarm (120dB)

5) Phone Battery Charger (DC 5V output - USB)

Power sources

1) Dynamo (Hand Crank Power Generator)

2) Solar panel (I have not tried)

3) DC 5V Micro USB

4) Three AA size Batteries (4.5V)

Theoretically, in a real emergency situation and no AA size Batteries inside you can get the above five functions by your hand movement - 1) Dynamo (Hand Crank Power Generator). But for a rather short period one time though you can continue your hand movement to get the power you need theoretically, in a real emergency situation.
