C.Crane CCRadio Solar AM/FM/Weather + Alert Windup Emergency Radio with Bluetooth® Receiving (CCRSBT)

The CCRadio Solar now has Bluetooth® receiving! We were repeatedly told this radio was almost perfect, it just needed Bluetooth. Now it can go on the boat and play the MLB games through the app on your phone (if you have it). It can also go to the cabin on the hunting trip so you can listen to downloaded music or audiobooks where there’s almost no service. Your phone can even act as a remote control when using Bluetooth®.

It is a small digital portable radio that is successful as an emergency radio but the form and format function invite you to use it daily. Placed in a sunny window it's perfect for the morning news. Audio is a surprise; it's accurate, pleasing and has two modes. A miser mode to conserve battery power in a true emergency and a high-power mode for an even better audio experience. Reception is good for the size. The almost brick size depth and unique UV resistant rubber perimeter is concave on the bottom which makes it inherently stable. The flashlight is above average in brightness and color because of the selected high-quality LED. The hand crank folded and inlaid on in the back is the only visible clue that it's an emergency radio.

The included lithium-ion battery can be recharged by wind-up, solar panel, your USB port, or optional AC charging adapter (not included). When the lithium-ion battery is fully charged, the radio will run (while not using Bluetooth®) approximately 50 hours or charge your phone from the approximately 50% level to 100% level. It can also be powered by (3) “AA” alkaline batteries (not included) for approximately 50 hours in low power mode or 35 hours in high power mode.
