Key Features
- Look No Further

The FRX5-BT is just the ticket. With a rechargeable lithium battery, superduper solar panel and hand crank power generator, it’s an essential for every emergency kit—at home, at work, or in the great outdoors.
- On Extra Alert

- Triple-Power
The FRX5-BT powers up in three fabulous ways—via solar panel, hand crank and built-in rechargeable lithium battery.
- Listen Up
Stay in tune and up to date with this AM/FM/NOAA weather band digital radio with display and alarm clock. If you want more than just the radio, it's Bluetooth® ready and has AUXin to play your own tunes or listen to your favorite podcast. And, when you want to listen alone, just plug in your favorite headphones.
- Say Hello
To charge your smartphone or tablet, simply plug it into the 5V 2.1A USB port. Power will automatically “dump charge” to your device, just like plugging into the wall. The FRX5-BT will provide >50% charge to most smartphones.
- All-Powerful
The super-sized solar panel will charge the battery fully in 5-6 hours. Looking for alternative sources of energy? Crank the hand turbine for four minutes and you’ll produce enough power for 10-15 minutes of music, news and weather or one minute of talk time. You can also use the micro-USB cable to charge the FRX5-BT’s built-in rechargeable battery.
- Light The Night
Shine the bright LED flashlight to find your way. Use the glow-in-the-dark locator and illuminated buttons when you’re in the dark. And for big-time emergencies, flash the red emergency beacon.
- Add Some Ambiance
The built-in, top mounted, dimmable ambient light on the top of the FRX5-BT provides just the right amount of light for the family to still enjoy a relaxing conversation or dinner even while the storm rages outside. Use it to light the tent on your next camping trip.
