22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Emergency Crank Radio (XT511)
(MLXT511)
Pros: Inexpensive, self powered or solar. Once charged fully, the rechargeable battery lasted over 12 hours of camping enjoyment. Has a standard CB 2 Way Radio Transceiver that has a good 15 mile LOS distance (verified on the river/highway). Easily recharges cell/sat phones.
Cons: Not a metal (aluminum/magnesium) housing. Has to be stored in a box to protect it from storage damage. Estimated 4-7 wattage 2 way is good for highway or flat land emergency use. But if you need to increase this do what I do and replace a few components to peak it out to 47 watt. I range Dallas from Waco, Texas!!
Other Comments: Metal body, higher wattage transceiver, increase the power output of the hand-crank generator to speed the power storage/charging ability and keep the price where it is and you'll sell a million/billion in no time!!
Yes, I recommend this product
