Etón SolarLink FR360 Emergency Preparedness Digital Radio Review

 

I live in the piedmont region of North Carolina. In exchange for our usually mild winters, we have hot, humid summers that are ripe for thunderstorms and even tornados. (We've already had tornados in the area this year, and it's not even summer yet.)...

Can set it to only receive weather alerts ; Has AM & FM radio as well as weather band ; Has an alarm clock and a flashlight ; Can charge a cell phone ; Has four sources of power

Can only charge a cell phone using the dynamo - not solar

Review: Etón FR360 Emergency Preparedness Digital Radio

 

It is starting to be that time of year.  What do I mean?  Thunderstorm and Tornado Season that's what I mean.  That is followed by the Hurricane season.  The best thing to do to stay safe during this season is to take time to prepare now before the...

Eton Solarlink FR360 Radio: Not For Camping Trips

 

Eton has made so many good products over the years. I have been thrilled with their shortwave radios, which aren't as popular as they used to be due to the Internet and other diversions, so I was shocked to have found such disappointment with their...

Flashlight, Light Weight

Horrible Quality, Plastic, Cheap Buttons, Sound Quality, Ease of Use, Charge

The Eton Solarlink FR360 AM/FM Weather radio, is one that you can live without. Campers, do avoid this one.

If you worry about reception and battery

 

I don't own this, just tried it out in the store. The tuning knob is poor quality and I didn't like the knob tuning the digital and the reception seemed to be not as good as another one I tried FR250. I ended up buying the Eton FR250, which is the old...

Love this-better than lifegear

 

I had purchased a LifeGear Emergency Radio, and right out of the box it didn't work. So I got this one instead. All the features worked, and it seems like it gets decent reception. Power seems to go a little quick though if your using something other...

Imagine breaking down in a VT winter!

 

The scariest thing is to be stuck out in snow or ice way out in the country! With this product, there is always a way to hear weather reports, use cell phone, have a light....
