Vondio NOAA Weather Radio: Emergency Digital Radio with WB/AM/FM Alert Mode

Ed Warren: Purchased two of these as backup radios for the larger one in the house and to go into packs in case the wife and I have to vacate the residence during some type of disaster situation (one apiece). These are the perfect size for our needs. The radios run on common AA batteries so replacing them should not be an issue. The sound of the units are above average for a radio of it’s size and it receives all of the AM/FM stations in our area that we would need for up to date information. The NOAA weather feature is an added benefit and was the main reason we chose these radios. These were a good solid choice for us.

Joan Mellies: Charge it up with the sun, manually, or with the charging cord. Great emergency backup when the power goes out or camping. Trickle charges your phone in a pinch. Not sure if it's my location or just not a decent antenna, but I couldn't really get any stations on the radio.

donna montpellier: I enjoy listening to cbc radio news and discussions throughout the day. Transistor radios are great when going from room-to-room.

R & L: I got a dud. Great sounding radio ,easy on the battery. But it started cutting off like it had a short or loose wire. It got so bad I stomped it in a fit of rage. Wrote a bad review. And then the company reached out to me and replaced the radio free of charge. No hassle, no 100 questions, they said try this one. And it works fine now. No loose wire, no short. Just great on the go music. No other company has ever done this before. They reached out to me and asked nothing in return. So how in the heck do you beat that??? I have bought 2 others from Amazon before Vondior's and they are all great. How many companies do that?? They really are great little radios and easy on batteries. Small enough to fit in a windbreaker or sweat jacket, or small pack or fanny pack. Don't go camping or fishing without one. I keep one in my tackle box for weather updates. And another one in my B.O.B. and the other one in my daily man bag. 1st rate company for doing that. This is an updated review. Thank you Vondior...!!! Peace.

Joel: Seems like a pretty good emergency radio. Nice and small, easy to use, and good enough quality. Just know that there's only one NOAA station left in Ontario area and it's in French.

Geodude: This little radio works great. I bought this specifically for the NOAA weather alerts, but the FM/AM bands work great as well. The speaker is LOUD when turned to the max. Reception is incredible, it picks up more stations than my car radio. Battery life I'm not sure about yet, I've been listening to the radio all day at work and it's still kicking - and besides, who doesn't use rechargeable AA's these days so is battery life really that much of an issue if it lasts more than a day? The radio stands up, is stable, and won't fall over. It also looks cute.

Brenda : Simple to use which is what you want in an emergency. Just put batteries in it when it was delivered so I can’t yet comment on battery life. Volume control easy to use. Compact size suitable for my emergency preparedness bag.

RichG: I was shocked at how small it was. But you wanna know what it doesn’t matter. It’s more than my wallet and my wallet is regular size. It’s digital it has multiple weather stations on it you can set an alarm if you need it to it will give you automatic weather reports if something is going to happen near you. It’s worth every nickel. The battery life is supposed to be fantastic and I’ve had no problems with it. It’s loud enough for a little tiny radio I’m actually very very impressed. I didn’t expect I was going to be but I am. When you look at it you’re like oh my god you’ve got to be kidding me this is like a piece of junk right? No it’s not it’s very durable you can see the digital screen with no problems the reception is really really good it has no antenna has a place for your head phone jack. No bells or whistles but I do like the fact it’ll turn on automatically let you know if there’s an alert. And I like the fact that you can tune into any station. You know there’s a lot of digital ones out there that will go right past certain stations this one will not. You hit the button and it keeps on going through each station that is...

Ivan Trujillo: Es un radio y punto. Tiene la opcion de estaciones meteorologicas pero en Guadalajara, entre plaza del sol y el oriente de la ciudad hasta Oblatos no es capaz de detectar ninguna. Asi que funciona como radio a secas. Lo deje una semana en modo alarma y nunca se escucho el aviso semanal. Asi que tampoco funciona. Quiza solo aplica en CdMx

Gaby: Este radio es muy pequeño, en poquito más grande que una mano, lo que lo convierte en un radio portátil muy practico. Lo compré para los sismos ya que es un radio NOAA. Funciona bien para México, puede activar la alarma de sismo a pesar de tener el radio apagado.
