SOLAR POWER
This amazing self-powered radio is equipped with a solar panel that is adjustable up to 180 degrees for unlimited power from the sun. It can be tilted for most efficient use. The solar panel uses "polycrystalline silicon solar cells", the most advanced solar cells that are used for home and industrial solar energy. When not in use, the solar panel folds neatly out of the way behind the radio.
HAND CRANK GENERATOR
