The Kaito V5 is a compact emergency radio that receives NOAA weather channels as well as AM and FM stations. NOAA broadcasts provide local weather information and real-time alerts. The AM/FM tuner has an LED signal strength indicator.
The V5 can be powered three ways. A solar panel charges the internal lithium-ion battery in direct sunlight, a hand crank charges it by hand, and a DC 5V USB-C input charges it from an optional USB wall plug. A USB-C charging cable is included.
It also has a 3-LED flashlight. A 5V USB output lets it work as a power bank to charge a phone during a power outage. The radio is palm-size and comes with a wrist lanyard for carrying.
