- Does the ER40 receive NOAA weather alerts?
- Yes. It tunes NOAA weather channels along with AM/FM, so you can hear official warnings during a storm or outage.
- How do you charge it?
- Three ways: a hand crank, a built-in solar panel, and USB. The crank and solar are slow, so use USB when you have power.
- Can it charge a phone?
- Yes, through its USB port. Expect a partial charge rather than a full one, since the radio's battery is small.
- Is it waterproof?
- No. It is a portable radio for outdoor use, but it is not rated waterproof, so keep it out of rain.
- How does it compare with the Midland ER310?
- The ER310 adds a brighter multi-mode flashlight and a battery-level display. The ER40 is the smaller, simpler unit with the same crank, solar and weather-radio basics.
