【Disaster Preparedness】What if there is a communication disruption? A portable TV that can be powered by solar and hand-crank offers peace of mind

Communication disruptions are likely to occur during major disasters. A portable one-seg TV is something one would want to have ready to catch important news. It supports a 4-way power supply, including solar charging, alleviating worries about running out of batteries.

Switching made easy with button operation

The disaster prevention series "SONAERU" from the sports and outdoor brand "PYKES PEAK" developed by Fun Standard launches a "portable one-segment TV radio with a 5-inch LCD panel" specialized for information gathering during disasters. It is a reliable device that can prepare for the risk of communication interruption.

In addition to a clear one-segment television suitable for everyday use, it covers FM/AM radio and SW (shortwave) broadcasting. By using the included external antenna, it is also capable of receiving strong shortwave broadcasts during disasters. The easy switching with button operation is another appealing feature that makes it accessible for anyone.

During a disaster, a smartphone serves as an important lifeline for confirming safety and requesting rescue. Thus, it is advisable to wisely utilize it as a secondary device to avoid draining valuable battery life while gathering information.

Even if the battery runs out or there is no outlet available, it's okay. It supports "solar charging" to charge through sunlight on clear days and "crank power generation" to generate electricity manually, allowing it to be used anytime and anywhere regardless of location or situation. With a built-in 2000mAh battery, it can also serve as a charger for smartphones in emergencies, enhancing peace of mind in critical situations.

With a MicroSD card (sold separately), you can record and save news (such as emergency briefings and distribution information), allowing you to review important information anytime. It helps prevent missing important updates, enabling you to catch information that flows during travel or while sleeping.

In addition to the LED light that serves as a beacon during power outages, it is also equipped with an SOS siren to call for help in case of being trapped. Its drip-proof and dust-proof design protects the connection ports, making it durable even in harsh environments. Moreover, it comes with a checklist supervised by a disaster prevention specialist, which is a nice touch as it allows you to start checking your supplies from the very day you receive it.
