Upgrade Your Emergency Preparedness with the PotaRada Emergency Radio
When a winter storm brings the power lines down, your phone battery is low and the house goes dark, what would you reach for? The PotaRada Emergency Radio is a compact all-in-one emergency device built for exactly those moments. Featuring AM/FM and NOAA weather band reception, a 5000mAh rechargeable battery that doubles as a power bank, three ways to charge (solar panel, hand crank and USB), a 300-lumen LED torch, a 120dB SOS alarm, a digital display and an IPX5 water-resistant, drop-resistant body, the PotaRada Emergency Radio makes it simple to stay informed, lit and connected when the power fails.
Whether you're putting together a home emergency kit, heading off camping or hiking, keeping a backup in the car or simply preparing for power cuts, the PotaRada Emergency Radio offers news, light, phone charging and a loud alarm in one rugged, easy-to-carry unit.
Why Choose the PotaRada Emergency Radio?
Unlike an ordinary portable radio that goes silent as soon as its batteries run flat, the PotaRada Emergency Radio can be recharged by sunlight, by hand or by USB, and it can top up your phone too. Add a bright torch, an SOS alarm and a splash-resistant casing, and one device covers several of your most important emergency needs.

In a real emergency you can't count on a working plug socket. The PotaRada Emergency Radio gives you three independent power sources, so there's always a way to keep it running.
| Charging Method |
Best For |
| USB |
Charging fully at home before a storm or trip |
| Solar Panel |
Topping up outdoors during daylight |
| Hand Crank |
Instant power when no other source is available |
Around one minute of cranking gives approximately 15–20 minutes of listening time, and you can keep using the radio while it charges from the sun.
5000mAh Power Bank
Keep Your Phone Alive When the Power Is Out
A flat phone during a power cut leaves you cut off from family and news. The 5000mAh battery in the PotaRada Emergency Radio doubles as a power bank for smartphones, tablets and other USB devices, and can fully charge most smartphones one to two times.
Ideal for:
- Power cuts at home
- Camping and festival weekends
- Long walks and hikes
- Breakdowns and long journeys by car
On a full charge you can expect approximately 20–30 hours of continuous radio use, depending on volume and usage.
AM/FM & NOAA Weather Band Reception
Stay Informed When It Matters Most
Keep up with news, travel updates and local information on AM and FM. The PotaRada Emergency Radio is designed to pull in clear reception even in valleys, forests and more remote spots, with a digital display that makes tuning easy.
It also includes the NOAA weather band – a weather broadcast service operated in North America, handy if you travel there. In the UK, AM and FM stations are your source of news and weather updates.
Bright 300-Lumen LED Torch
Light the Way When the Lights Go Out
The built-in LED torch on the PotaRada Emergency Radio delivers up to 300 lumens of brightness with a range of up to 50 feet (approx. 15m), and can run for up to 40 hours on a full charge, depending on use.
Use it:
- To find your way around the house during a power cut
- Around the tent after dark
- When checking the car or garden at night
- On evening walks and dog walks
120dB SOS Alarm
Be Heard When You Need Help
If you're ever stranded or injured, attracting attention can make all the difference. The PotaRada Emergency Radio features an SOS alarm rated at 120 decibels to help others locate you.
Rugged IPX5 Design
Built for Rain, Splashes and Rough Handling
Outdoor life in Britain means rain is never far away. The PotaRada Emergency Radio has an IPX5 water-resistant rating for rain and splashes and is designed to withstand drops from up to 5 feet (approx. 1.5m). A lanyard is included, so it's easy to carry or hang up in your tent.
Benefits include:
- Peace of mind in wet weather
- Durability for camping and hiking
- Compact enough for a kit bag, glovebox or drawer
