  • After a year of use I am reviewing this Kaito KA500L solar crank NOAA weather radio. This is a fine product for camping, RV, prepping, bugout, shtf, etc.. Enjoy!

    Thank you for actually reviewing the product. All the other just take it from the nox and explain its features.

    Pavement Pirate - How has your Kaito 500L held up over the last year? I know you spoke highly of it in your excellent video. Do you still have the same opinion on the 500L? Thank you.

      It still serves us well. Was our only radio for quite a while. We still use it during bad storms and power outages.

      Thank you and again a great review. The 500L version will be the way I go.

      I gave one to my mom.
      She uses it, and it holds up well.

    Just bought one off of Amazon.
    Feels cheap and plasticy like a Fisher Price "My First Emergency Radio" for small kids.
    Feels fragile, only Am, FM and NOAA reception works well. SW is horrendous.
    Solar Charging is virtually useless.
    Cranking take forever to charge.
    Overall it looks cool, but it's really a cheap toy.

    Kaito messed up ! Should have charged more and put a good solar panel in.

      It is functional, more of a gimmick imo. But it is a great radio for emergencies!

    If you really want a good one go to Ccrane Company
    www.ccrane.com/
    . Their radio equipment is expensive, but it works and in an emergency you don't need a piece of junk. Your life may depend on it.

      Agreed, no need in having a piece of junk. Been there, done that. This is actually a solid radio, we still use it regularly.
