Emergency Solar Hand Crank NOAA/AM/FM Radio vs Emergency Weather Radio with NOAA AM FM

The B radio is the better pick for most shoppers. It has a larger 2000mAh battery, USB-C charging, a digital display and an IPX3 water-resistant body, while the A radio runs on a smaller 1200mAh battery and plain plastic. Both share hand-crank, solar and AM/FM/NOAA reception, so the A still works as a simple backup. Reviewers of the A praise its power options and weather band, but its 1.34 lb weight and basic build are the main trade-offs.

• Choose the Emergency Solar Hand Crank NOAA/AM/FM Radio if you want a no-frills backup radio with a headphone jack and you don't mind a smaller battery.
• Choose the 2000mAh USB-C weather radio if you want a bigger battery, a digital display and splash resistance for camping and outages.
