Which Emergency Radio is Best?

Which radio is best in an emergency situation?

In a survival situation, you want the peace of mind to know that you have the most current information. We have learned (the hard way) that radio is one of the few reliable means of receiving information in a disaster scenario. Especially when there is no power or internet.

Having a battery powered radio can make a serious improvement to your state of mind after a large scale earthquake or other disaster.

What brand is best?

There are no shortage of portable radios available. We choose to stock Sangean radios because they are the most reliable and get the best reception. They are made in Taiwan and Sangean make many of the radio components for other high quality brands of radios.

Which model is right for me?

Our most popular radio for emergency situations by a country mile is the Sangean MMR-88. It's a rugged design and very compact and can be charged by any method under the sun (literally).

Sangean PRD-18

This is our most popular compact battery powered radio. It gets excellent reception and sounds a little better than the MMR-88. It runs of AA batteries, so as long as you have a good supply of those, you will never be without information in an emergency situation.

• AA Battery Powered
• Excellent Reception and Clarity
