This light/radio seems to work OK once initially charged. However, before the hand crank or solar feature can be used it must be charged for 5 hours using a 12 volt AC adaptor. This adaptor is NOT included with the product and must be purchased seperately.

I got this as a gift. Easy to use. You do not need an electric adaptor to work it.
The flashlight, radio and siren alarm work great. I am ready to buy a 2nd one to leave at work for emergency. If I had a car, I would buy one to leave it in there for emergencies also. Hand crank is easy to use. An excellent product to have just in case.

This product is a nice color and size for the price. The quality of the plastic seems a little cheap so you wouldn't want it to get too banged around but it works well and has both the wind up and solar feature which makes it nice to keep handy in case of an emergency. We get power outages during storms so it is perfect for that and has a decent radio.

I bought this item and it works great. The reason it got four stars is because I dropped six inches or less out of my hand onto the table when I first got it and cracked the clear plastic piece above the solar panels. Not bad, just enough to make me not trust the reliability of it. It holds a charge while playing the radio for about 40 minutes. Two minutes of cranking gets me about 20 minutes of play time.
The light works well enough for a small LED system. I am thinking about upgrading the lights to a 3 LED set. There is plenty of room for it in the casing. I get about 25 minutes with the flashlight function running, but its not bright at all.
