no other emergency radio out there i could find a emergency that had more advanced features than this emergency radio.
What emergency radio do you have? Is it as nice as this prepper radio?
This Kaito Ka900 Voyager Max emergency radio I believe it at the top of its class with built in Bluetooth in the emergency radio, am an FM radio and NOAA weather radio feature
this emergency radio is the best emergency radio. am FM shortwave NOAA weather band radio for emergency preparedness radios is a great pick.
AM FM Shortwave NOAA Weather Band Radio the best emergency radio for prepping and emergency preparedness.
Thats correct, All Hazards in NOAA best emergency radio for when the power goes out.
Are you looking for an emergency radio? this is a good emergency radio, the best emergency radio for emergency purposes. It is also a new emergency radio for preppers.
Having an emergency radio that has a all hazards NOAA emergency weather broadcast is a super smart prepping must have. Emergency radios is something every home should have.
Even FEMA recommends every home having a emergency radio.
Emergency shortwave radios are important to have in every home whether you are a prepper or just want to be ready for an emergency and receive communications.
When the power goes out you will need an emergency radio to receive very important emergency broadcasting on a short wave emergency radio

These so - called emergency radios are nothing but silly toys. With the
ridiculous cranks, solar cells, sirens and lights all of which are
almost useless . With all the junk they put in them theres no room for a
good size set of batteries like D-cells which gives you hundreds of
hours of operation instead of multiple ineffective options. The cranks
break off and dont give you any real recharge time (your going to crank
while driving or boarding up your house??) The solar cells wont run the
radio and take hours to recharge tiny batteries. The multiple power
options (a selling gimac) are what make these radios almost worthless.
If they didnt do that you could fit 3 D-cells which will power a radio
with no digital displays for 250 hours. You also dont want digital
displays or flashlights draining your small batteries even when the
radio is off. You want a slide rule dial AM,FM, WB , 3 D cells, slide
rule dial, big speaker , detachable ac cord and long telescoping antenna
(the fad junkers have short ones) The Kaito KA-390 , Retekess TR-640
and Prunus J-05 are far better for emergency use than these junky fad
so-called emergency radios. There just a bunch of useless features to
make you think "YOUR PREPARED" It like a swiss army knife with a bunch
of useless blades.
Have any friends near by? cheep walkie talkies with a few mile rang can be private , keep in touch for not much. Got a baofang? short trans missions who 's gonna know? who gonna hunt you down when shtf' time comes? old CB any one?
I have two Eton solar/crank/ battery emergency radios. They have the phone chargers and the plugs for small electric items. I've had them for over 25 years and they both work great!
My last one was Eton- good radios 📻
Same here. Nice radio! Also have a large supply of rechargeable batteries, and a solar charger for them.
I have the "Running Snail" with flashlight, hand crank, phone charger, am/fm/NOLA, solar & also, the "Fansrock" with flashlight, hand crank, power bank, am/fm/NOLA, solar, sos signal. They are both small, lightweight, easy to carry & affordable! The digital one you're featuring is sweet! I wouldn't mind having that one for my home. The two I own are in our bugout bags.
I have the Kaito voyager pro. It's over 10 years old now and has all the things I need. All the usb ports flashlight alarm cell phone reading light, don't forget to pull it it out and check it or you might find battery corrosion. It happens, put it away and forget about it, happened to me. Ni hi batteries are gonna be hard to replace, if you need a new radio GET ONE NOW. Great video, yeah, thats how I found out my batteries corroded because of this video, Thank you, I could have lost my radio!
You must get the C Crane Radio 3. It’s a great radio and it specializes in the 2 Meter Band….the Civil Defense Band. It’s much more valuable and easier to access than the Short Wave Band. The low cost radios like Kaito don’t cover the 2 Meter Band. In fact, most high end recieivers (e.g., Eton Elite) don’t cover the 2 meter band--despite the fact that the 2 meter band has repeaters all across America. My CC Radio 3 in Virginia can receive traffic as far away as San Diego because of this repeater system. Finally many of these repeaters have emergency back-up power to stay operational during an extended blackout.
Thank you Daniel. I think the best thing about you tube, well is the comments! I looked up the C. Crane it just ordered the 2 Meter. While I have no idea how to use it the Civil Defense Band, I looking forward to learning. Thanks again and if anyone reads this please comment often and share your tips because they are appreciated.
I just do not have $200= for a radio with I did
All the features of this KA Voyager is present in the palm-size Retekess HR-11. Bluetooth, recorder, digital tuning, mp3 player (which is really really good btw because of the equalizers), everything. It is small but the sound is superb. No problem packing it in my bag. The only downside, because it is an early tech, is that it only uses the nokia bl 5c battery. I wish the manufacturers will redesign it to accomodate an 18650 battery but all the features are still there.
Sounds good. But what channels are emergency radio stations going to be on. Government got rid of emergency civil defense channels on AM. And I never heard any news of what to turn on in case of SHTF.
I guess Iam screwed, because living pay check to pay check , no savings and am disabled senior citizen .
I'll just half to wing it.!
Many are in that position- let’s hope it does not go there
I have two emergency solar radios, but that one is more versatile than what I have.
A friend of mine in Sweden messaged me today about preps and said that his job gifted all the employees solar radios for Easter. He said dry food & canned food runs out as fast as it comes in. Camping supplies have been sold out for over a month now.
Dang Nola ! Things are lined up to get real soon
Obrigada pelas informações . Sou do Brasil e aqui tudo é escondido da população ,mas fico atenta buscando informações nós comentários de fora do país
I was just shopping for one of these... got distracted by shortwave and 'walkie-talkies' and HAM stuff and havent bought anything yet lol
Do not get one with a digital read out on it. It will suck your battery dry for nothing. Stay simple. Stay strong.
I have to say it we would love to have a place like yours. Yall are blessed
😊🙌🏽-
It’s been a lot of hard work- but we love it
what is your intro music i like it
I was disappointed by the voyager model, second in your pictures, the solar panel totally broke off so easy, with next to no rough handling. Otherwise, I liked it.
Thanks for info Greg 👍
I purchased a Ledianer emergency radio from Amazon for around $26. 7 NOAA channels and AM/FM stations. Crank, battery or solar charging with battery bank to charge devices if needed and a flashlight. Small and very light weight. It’s perfect for what I wanted…multifunctional and affordable.

Good price 👍
Where did you get from
I have been purchasing emergency radios for the past 30 years, that particular one you are showing, has some nice features. I like the multiple charging methods, the cellphone style power plugs, and 18650 Lithium battery. The Bluetooth, SD card, and stereo is unnecessary but, may come in handy occasionally. The solar cell on the radio will only charge up to around 100 mA, so take several days in full sun to completely recharge the battery, assuming you don't turn the radio on. All of the hand cranks I have seen on these emergency radios only put out up 50 - 200 mA so, not really that practical but, if the battery is completely dead, will give you enough charge for a few minutes of radio playing.
The bands the radio should have as a bare minimum: AM, FM, and Weather. The better radios will have the addition of Shortwave. The best radios will also have Shortwave with a detector for SSB (Single Side Band) and CW (Morse Code), which are the modes Radio Amateurs (Hams) use. The emergency radio I use is the Tecsun PL-880, which has all the aforementioned bands and SSB detector.
Shortwave is not nearly as popular as it once was, the popularity of the Internet has killed off a lot of the Shortwave broadcast stations. However, Amateur Radio is still quite popular and would be your best bet for obtaining information, although, due to the radio wave propagation on these bands, local stations will not come in well unless they are a few miles away.
If the power goes out for long periods of time, the phone and Internet has the potential to go down as well, meaning, local radio stations that have backup power, may lose their means of gathering information. Due to these limitations in obtaining vital information, I recommend everyone checking into Amateur Radio, which regularly practices emergency Communications through two sub organizations called ARES (Amateur Radio Emergency Services) and RACES (Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service). The downside is, a license is required to transmit but, the entry license is fairly easy to obtain and the local Ham clubs encourage those wanting to join, as well as provide the necessary license testing.
Other less effective options (no license required) to communicate are CB (Citizen's Band) and FRS (Family Radio Service) transceivers, which are very low cost and easy to use. These would be best for local (within a mile or two) information.
@@Michigan_Girl Thanks for the response. I probably gave out too much information causing techno overload but, just wanted to mention some other possibilities if anyone wants to go a step further in their backup communication preparedness.
Get a US map book! When things are down, you will want a map of your state to find your way around! GPS won’t work!
Not sure which one to get. Midland has two. One that’s hand crank but for $5 more you can get the plug in kind. Not sure the hand crank and solar panel and light is worth getting as opposed to the plug in kind with a battery bank to power it.
Fospower 4000maH Radio ... internal battery that charges by solar & crank, .. also runs on AAA.
What kind of Faraday bags do you recommend for the anti tracking of your phone??
Is this still a viable option in 2023? Looking to add this one to my 🎄 list...
that's all good but why not playing some sound?
Keep your radios batteries and chargers in a STEEL TRASH CAN. Not a huge one mine is the size of a 5 gallon bucket but fatter. The crank radios are of utmost importance.
What’s the reason?
@@garyp102 likely shield from EMP
Will a good shortwave radio be best? Do they have the weather alerts stations?
I do like the 18650 battery, same bat I use in my flashlights, and I have a fast charger for it (200 watt solar)
Ccraine was mine only lasted six years. I used it as a regular radio and messed it up.
I got the Kaito KA500 5-way Powered Solar Power,Dynamo Crank, Wind Up Emergency AM/FM/SW/NOAA Weather, I love it and is great addition to my prepps
I'm practical, I bought a Dewalt shop radio, My prepper shed and home is solar, so I can recharge at any time, I can use Dewalt 20v or 60v batteries, it has a USB charging port, Bluetooth and Aux, I have multiple batteries for the radio.
I live in South Texas. That solar radio would not make it in the sun down here. I have the Grundig wind up radio.
Melt it? This thing charges in the shade too tho
Grundig is that Eton ?
@@RiversideHomesteadLife The heat of the sun here would cook the internal capacitors, etc.
Canadian Prepper is NUTS !
A lot of people say that
Totally agree. Snake oil salesman. Every video he does the world is ending unless you buy expensive canadian crap from his warehouse.
I think he gives that impression to the average person because, he is thinking several years down the road into all of the possibilities/consequences a worst-case event can cause. I try not to get into it that deeply, as there is no end to possibilities of how things can turn out.
@Paco I do notice it’s end of the world headlines every day…
Not $100. Closer to $200
QUESTION: How to determine if it is possible and how to hook an external antenna to a survival purpose radio. An external antenna should greatly enhance the reception of a radio (I think). Thank you for the time you spend teaching us.
An alligator clip and a doorbell copper wire from the hardware store will enhance your reception GREATLY!
I don’t have one
I got something similar, not digital; fewer pieces of silicone chips the better
Good piont
@@RiversideHomesteadLife just had to dig it out, kaito voyager. Same thing minus all the bells and whistles (no blue tooth or digital display, barebones, pragmatist’s goal). Got it in summer 2020 through Canadian Preparedness with my wool blanket that ended up being out of stock for 8 months after
I guess I'm behind the 8 ball...I have a hand held battery operated radio and walkie-talkies ....I will be looking at the 1 you are holding.
🙌🏽
I have the Kaito KA550 I bought years ago. I got it for the price because at the time I was going through a divorce and didn't have much money. It has been a great radio for me. I also got the extended coil antenna that clips to the radio antenna for better reception. It has the normal analog settings along with the solar charger, crank, NOAA weather channels and reading light with a red emergency flashing light. It also will charge your cell phone as well.
I like that one
I take the Midland E10VP because it's FM, AM, and NOAA alerts and weather. All I need.
Just bought a cb radio 👍 should be helpful
[Upgraded Version] RunningSnail Emergency Hand Crank Self Powered AM/FM NOAA Solar Weather Radio with LED Flashlight, 1000mAh Power Bank for iPhone/Sm .......16.91 paid
I feel like if you have a blf lt1, a way to charge 18650's with the sun and a KA900 you are more or less set on the battery powered side of things
I got the fospower emergency hand crank radio from Ebay.I got a good deal on it@35 bucks. 4000mah internal batteries, waterproof, and all the bells and whistles ya need.
Nice ! Great deal!
We have cb radios and short wave world radios... we also have a 12500 generac to run the house! Stored gas to run it!
I enjoy your videos! Hello from Mississippi
Glad you like them! Thank you so much Deplorablediva prepper!
@@RiversideHomesteadLife you are very welcome. Have a great weekend & Happy Easter to you
Also, new to the channel, and not new to the prepping mindset, but can finally afford to... The 'reading light' got me thinking about paper maps, or even nice offline digital maps. Any recommendations or videos about maps?
amzn.to/3uGX0hr
In our state we have maps called green trail maps- they are my favorite outside of tech
Only missing RADIO SCANNING ... why ?
Running Snail. Crank solar and plug in power. It has a flashlight and multiple ports to charge your phone etc also a SOS function.
I have a KA500. Had it for years. Still works great. Hand crank, solar, battery and AC/DC.
So if you don't know what freq to tune into does it have a scan function. I prefer dial so I can pick up freqs with low signals
I have a NOAA. Bought it because it was the only one the merchant had.
I have Baofeng 2 way radio it's awesome
🙌🏽
I had just a really really small one it is sold the name‘s not even on there don’t reason I even have this one is because it was given to me it don’t work that well it only gets weather I can’t afford to buy one I barely make it on the amount of money I get a month so me getting one is going to be slim next to none and none left town I mean I can’t even save money to buy extra anything right now I’m in just really really bad financial shape I’m on able to get a part-time job because of not having a hip I have to walk on crutches and nobody will hire me because of having to walk her whatever so the one I have will give me the weather that’s it and I’m sorry I don’t know the name of the one that was given to me
Yes, maybe it is time for an upgrade? 😎 I have two (2) emergency (receiver) radios and a variety of two-way (Ham and GMRS) radios for our very rural neighborhood. I have a *Tucson Digital PL-330 ($85.98) and a smaller *Radiodity Raddy SW2 ($20), both have their Pros & Cons. The PL-330 does not receive aircraft bands, no crank generator, no solar panel, and the controls are more complicated than they need to be? Both are USB rechargeable, the batteries are replaceable, and the Raddy SW2 does have a small solar panel and hand-crank. I can also recharge them via my solar system, Lithium battery banks, and/or my twin-generator dual-fuel generator system connected to the house via a 50 Amp switchgear circuit, or the more portable 4-panel solar (cell-phone size) battery banks.
What state are you guys in ? Love Hills !!
thank you sold 3:33 minute in.
I need this! Thank you. We don’t have any emergency radio but I like the feature of being able to record.
It does look like it's really useful! wish I could get it here. saludos desde Costa Rica :)
Wow! That thing is amazing!!!!!
its Friday , where are you ?
Thank you , I just ordered one !!
$235.00 in Canada. 😝
P12,400 in online shops here in the philippines. I may have to sell my kidney😅
I have two handheld hams
And it is Dinner Time..........
Thank you
Hopefully EMP wise they will last digitally..
EMP unlikely. They’ll probably just turn the power off.
Great video RHL! That is a great radio! I need a crank! Thank you!😊👍❤️
Mine quit working had to throw it out.

I use to think Canadian Prepper was hot....... but Riverside Man is A BEEF CAKE.... OMG..!!
I have a Kaito also it's the Voyager Pro. I think it was the top dog a couple years ago. Same features as yours' but different housing. your model is all sleeked up. I really like mine and it lives plugged in and used often .I also have a Grundig that I know is over 20 years old and still works and holds a decent charge. They are a great thing to have.
Awesome, thank you for the info Tom!
Sorry......
