Sony's Hand Crank Radio

Sony’s ICFB01 Emergency Radio is their stab at capturing the emergency preparedness crowd.

Not as feature-ful as the Eton Grundig FR200, the Sony is both a hand crank-powered radio and a flashlight. Just crank the handle for one minute and the built-in generator provides up to one hour of AM radio, 40 minutes of FM radio, or up to 15 minutes of light. The ICFB01 also operates on two ‘AAA’ batteries.

It only comes in orange, which is a real shame for fans of this bad boy.
