Whether you’re an off-road enthusiast, a safety-conscious camper, or just someone living in a state with frequent power outages, you should have a portable charger, backup lantern, and emergency radio.
And with this Innopower gadget now just $26 at Walmart, down from $60, you can have it all in one device—plus more.
Frankly, calling this gadget an “emergency radio” is doing it a disservice. This thing is an emergency Swiss Army Knife, fully equipped to keep you safe, in contact, and in the know during emergencies.
This Innopower device includes:
- AM/FM/NOAA radio
- 10,000mAh power bank with USB-A output
- LED flashlight with 3 brightness levels
- LED lamp with soft, dispersed light
- Compass
- Thermometer
- SOS alarm
- 3 ways to recharge (solar, USB-C, and hand-crank)
All in all, that means this thing provides radio, weather, and light for any situation. You can recharge via solar during the day and hand-crank at night, and that’s if you don’t have USB-C from elsewhere. Plus, you can use this to keep your other devices (e.g., phone) charged.
The LED flashlight and lamp are handy even in non-emergencies, like when you’re camping or walking a trail at night. Hook it on your tent for cozy ambience before turning in for sleep.
And if you do ever get lost, the compass will help you orienteer while the built-in SOS alarm makes your presence known without you having to scream your throat hoarse.
Lastly, it was designed to withstand the elements with its IPX6 waterproof rating, plus it’s easy to carry because it’s only 1.5 pounds. It even has a sturdy strap that lets you free up your hands.
For just $26, you’re getting an absolute bargain on this Innopower emergency radio, charger, light, compass all-in-one—and it’s something you’ll want to have on hand before emergency strikes.
