Faganmk Wind Up Solar Radio vs Emergency Solar Hand Crank NOAA/AM/FM Radio

Both are hand-crank, solar emergency radios with AM/FM and weather band, a flashlight and an SOS alarm, so the core job is the same. The Faganmk is the lighter, more compact pick at 0.2 lb with a lanyard and a Type-C port, which suits a glovebox, backpack or drawer. The yellow unit is heavier at 1.34 lb and adds a 1200mAh battery with USB output to charge a phone, plus a headphone jack. Owners and reviewers of the yellow radio praise the multiple power options and weather-band reception when the grid fails. Buy the Faganmk for portability; step up to the yellow unit if you want to charge a phone.

• Choose the Faganmk if you want the lightest, most packable radio for a bag, car or nightstand and don't need to charge a phone from it.
• Choose the yellow emergency radio if you want a built-in 1200mAh battery, USB phone charging and a headphone jack for shelter use.
