The First Alert CR-100 is as versatile as they come, with internal, rechargeable NiMH batteries that can be recharged by the included 4.5-volt DC power adapter. Additionally, this unit can be powered by its dynamo crank at any time, in any place, and can even run on three AA batteries (not included) for those times when you have no power source, and don't want to crank up your own charge. This emergency radio receives AM and FM bands for regular use, as well as including short wave radio with an ultra-fine tuning knob to locate the exact band you need.

The CR-100 is constructed with a water-resistant, rugged, high-impact plastic case that makes it suitable in virtually any environment. This unit features an emergency light for your darkest hour, a charging indicator so you know its working, and an earphone jack for use in both loud and quiet environments. What's more, this emergency radio also provides you with an accurate, and easy-to-read digital day and month clock so you are never without the time. The First Alert CR-100 comes with a convenient bag with carrying strap for easy transportation, and is backed by a manufacturer's 90-day warranty.
