Kaito Voyager Pro KA600 Digital Solar Dynamo Crank Wind Up AM/FM/LW/SW & NOAA Weather Emergency Radio with Alert & RDS, Flashlight and Reading Lamp + Smart Phone Charger, Black

Very good. Careful when charging with the crank. Keep the radio steady with one hand while using the crank. Needs about fifteen minutes of cranking to get a useful length of listening time. Charging the batteries by plugging it in is very fast. I have not tried charging with the solar panel yet. Stations are quite easy to tune in to. Covers a very good range in the SW/MW/FM bands. Overall, quite satisfied with the performance.

Product is very good. Delivery was within the committed dateline.

Received the package a couple of days ago that originated in the US, well before the projected time. That would sure earn a 5 star. As far as the product itself goes, well it is definitely a one small magic box that promises to see one through emergency situations. Every thing works the way its been described, except the solar charging of the mobiles or other gadgets running outa charge. Or maybe I haven't got it through yet, for I am still learning to know the radio. It is a delicate piece of construction and appears one will have to care for it more than the self or dependents in a crisis situation if one is going to make use of it in that situation. The sound could be better than it is. It ain't very clear. All the little knobs and buttons and switches are really pretty delicate and one wonders if the thing will last a year even with all the care. But yes this delicate aspect makes it pretty light of weight in a crisis situation which is a consolation. The absence of the adaptor with the set is a real loss. Though I keep it with me all the time in the house, but wonder if it really is meant to be of daily use as well as at challenging times. A sleek sturdy waterproof cover would perhaps make the radio a must have product.

The worst electronic item I ever bought in my life. It stopped working in exactly 48 hours from my receiving it. Complete waste of money. I should have rather donated this money to charity.

Wir haben das Kaito Voyager Pro KA600 Radio als Notfallradio und für Camping gekauft. Dieses Radio ist durch den Empfang von UKW, MW, SW und LW wirklich ein sehr guter Weltempfänger. Durch eine kleine zusatzdraht Antenne die an der eingebauten Antenne angeklemmt wird haben wir schon Sender aus aller Welt damit empfangen z.B. China, Türkey, und andere Länder. Dadurch das ein zusätzliches Batteriefach für herkömmliche AA Batterien oder AA Akku's eingebaut ist hat es den vorteil das man sehr unabhängig von der Stromversorgung ist. Das aufladen des eingebauten Akkus kann über den USB anschluss, ein seperat erhältliches Netztteil, das SolarPanel oder die Kubel erfolgen.

Very fast delivery. Excelent device.

First of all, I reviewed quite a few similar products before making the final decision. PROS: Seems to be well made, but probably not for rugged use. Some degree of care is required. Station reception is very good, but I do live in the suburbs of a major U.S. city. Harmonic AM hum can be eliminated by tilting out the solar panel part way as a stand, and lying horizontal. FM very clear. SW is adequate, better with a clip on Sangean antenna (ANT 60). I did not expect the capability of my Sangean ATA 818. Multiple power options. Crank works well, not flimsy. Solar charge will power radio by maintaining an existing charge level. Optional AC adapter charges unit fairly quickly. AC adapter can overcharge if left connected for long periods of time, and can shorten battery life. Since I am an electronics geek, at some time I will swap out the 600 Mah internal battery for a larger capacity. An AC charge of 4-5 hours is adequate. My intent was for a lightweight jobsite radio that doesn't chew up batteries, and also will serve for emergency use in off grid situations. I have been using as such for about 10 days, without any hiccups. It runs for about 7 - 8 hours a day. I loaded it with 3 Sanyo Eneloops, which I have hardly used, and are the backup power. The flashlight & "reading lamp" are bonuses in my view, but you never know when they may come in handy. Backlight display is very good. Digital tuner is superior to analog any day. Scan function is a big plus, especially on SW I receive 5 out of the 7 NOAA weather stations in my area, all crystal clear. I have not had the need to use the auto warn feature as of yet. VOLUME is more than adequate. CONS: Tuner knob is very sensitive. The overall compact design puts my big hands in contact with some of the knobs & buttons inadvertently, causing changes. I'm still getting used to using the lockout button AFTER setting to a station. WISH LIST: Add a crossover circuit to charge the 3 main batteries as well (AC & solar only) Add S.A.M.E. capability for weather and other emergency alerts Use a larger capacity rechargeable battery on solar / crank / AC circuit. A 1200 Mah would run this sucker for about 10 - 12 hours, but would require more or extended re-charge. ( A lot more cranking ) BOTTOM LINE: I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED IN THE LEAST, and will purchase a few more as gifts for family.
