Amazon.com Product Description
Ideal for emergencies, the versatile and reliable Eton FR400 is a hand crank power generator. It features a water resistant body and can receive power from four different sources: the built-in rechargeable Ni-MH battery that takes its charge from the dynamo crank and from an AC adapter; three "AA" batteries; from the AC adapter alone or the dynamo crank alone. In times of emergency, the FR400 provides you with an emergency siren, a water resistant radio, LED lights, and a cell phone charger so you can contact help. Using the hand crank power generator, you can also charge the internal rechargeable Ni-MH battery pack in times of need. The Eton FR400 also gives you access to NOAA weather channels and TV-VHF channels 2-13, so you can listen to important information, weather forecasts and even television shows while away from the set.

It's the Little Things That Raises Questions.......2007-12-25
It's the little things that define the quality of a product. Having just received the Eton FR400 I can't attest to how well it will work under emergency conditions -- which is, after all, why one buys something like this. But there's a few little things that make me nervous about its quality and design.
The plastic strikes me as cheap. How will it stand up to getting knocked around?
The case is a textbook case of poor design. It fits the radio so tightly that it turns on switches when you insert the radio -- if you can get the radio into the case. Plus there's no room for the AC charger. This may sound peevish, but it's this kind of poor craftmanship which can be symbolic of a short sighted company. What good is a case if it's a pain to use? What good is it if it turns on features that drain the battery? What good is it if you can't carry accessories that comes with the radio?
And the key question, how good is a company that puts out a product so poorly designed? Was Eton trying to cut corners? If so, where else did they scrimp? Did anyone test the case before manufacturing it? If so, what kind of standards do they have?
Bottom line: the device has all the features listed here, but their execution makes me wonder if it was worth getting.
Clear and Crisp.......2007-12-08
This radio is a quality product. It tunes in stations easily. The sound is clear and crisp. Buttons, knobs, and switches are easy to use. The plus is that can generate power by itself. Aside from rechargeable batteries for emergencies, it uses three AA batteries for daily use.
Info on Digital for this item..........2007-11-16
I needed more info on this radio and others so I called Amazon tech support. I was given the Eton customer service number: 1-800-872-2228.
The Eton FR400 has TV capabilities that will become obsolete in 2009 as the signals will all be switched to digital for the TV portion of this radio. All other functions will work. The updated model, Eton FR405, is the same as this radio only without the TV signal capability. The FR405 is only available at Best Buy at this time. For my money, the FR400 with TV capabilities, while the TV signals last, is a better buy.
This radio is water resistant. A waterproof model would be perfect. We've lost a couple of cell phones in the river and water kills them fast. Sun dried cell phones are never the same if they even flicker with life at all. So, now I look for waterproof when buying anything that might get wet or fall overboard. An emergency radio is in that class.
Another newer model coming on the scene soon will be the Eton FR1000--no TV capability, but it will come with a walkie talkie. This is being tested now and should be the next model you will see on the market.
Eton does not make a GPS system combined with NOAA radio capabilities. They also do not have a unit with both shortwave and NOAA combined--apparently the circuitry on the two things are not compatable. No one has this.
I want something that will be equally useful on land, at sea or in a vehicle. I want an "emergency" unit that packages many of the things I may need for "survival" communication. Okay, I really meant everything I might need. :) I haven't found the perfect NOAA radio yet.
The other thing that is not available is an NOAA radio with digital TV. Apparently, the digital components are too expensive at this time to add this feature to these radios and maintain a decent price point. So, companies are simply deleting TV from the mix.
This model, Eton FR400, will charge a cell phone battery. None of the connections come with the unit. You send in for them. The first cell phone adapter connector is free, additional ones cost $5 each. Eton tries to keep a number of cell phone battery charger adaptors in stock, but you may want to see if they have your specific adaptor before making a purchase because they don't carry them all.
Amazon has inflated the retail price on this unit. It sells for $60 directly from Eton, plus $10 shipping.
The unit is larger than I expected. This is okay, but wouldn't a cell phone sized unit be wonderful! Waterproof of course.
Excellent emergency Radio.......2007-11-13
This is an excellent radio with good sound quality for both talk and music. It is sturdy and well built. It comes with a convenient carry case which holds the instructions and batteries which is very useful in the case of an emergency. Sound is clearest after a full charge using the built in re-chargable battery and also clear using AA batteries. The least clear sound is produced when all other power supply is exhausted and you need to use the crank. However, this radio has a lot to run on before you get to the crank stage.
The company was very prompt in supplying the cell phone adapter, however they have sent two and neither of them fit the phone so in an emergency we will not be able to charge the phone until we get this aspect straigntened out. this is the reason for 4 rather than 5stars
Every home should have this radio for both emergency and ordinary portable use.
Eton FR400.......2007-10-17
The FR400 is a good, though pricey, radio. The LED flashlight is intense (you won't want to look directly at it), but not so bright. This is the case for most LED flashlights, so, if you need to be active during a low light condition, you might be better off with an ordinary flashlight. I have two gripes:
1) It doesn't stand well on its end. During a recent power outage, I tried pointing the light upward, as I did with my other flashlights, so that it would reflect off the ceiling and illuminate a larger area. The dynamo crank prevents the radio from standing well on its end.
2) The AC adapter doesn't fit in the bag, as another reviewer already noted. The bag, by the way, fits rather tightly, so it is easy to accidentally turn knobs and flip switches as you're pushing the radio in.

Works Great..........2007-08-10
(here comes the BUT)...but, it did not come with a travel charger. it has good rechargable battery life, but if you're going to be using it for extended trips, purchase the car charger as well.
Problem with connection.......2007-06-27
I used cable version of Pharos GPS.
It worked well.
Due to change my pda phone, I purchased bluetooth dock.
It has some connection problem.
The connection keeps disconnected after around 1 minutes.
I'm not sure where the problem is located at.
It may be on my pda phone, my setting, or the product.
I'm not experter about this technology.
I just want to help new buyer's decision.
What DC charger?.......2007-05-12
The unit works well but it states is comes with a DC charger. My mistake was assuming this was a cigarette lighter charger. No, it is an adapter to be used with a PDA. I don't use this with a PDA, I use it with a laptop. It can be charged with a USB but then what is the point of having it connected to the computer, I wanted wireless.
Pharos iGPS-BT.......2007-05-12
Works great, just what I needed for my Audiovox SMT-5600 Smartphone to give the Pocket Streets GPS funtionality.
Used with iPAC 2795 PDA.......2007-01-10
The device worked flawlessly with my HP Pocket PC and the Pharos GPS that I had purchased with Microsoft Streets and Trips 2005. The collection of power adaptors that came with the package makes it simple to charge the iPAC in it's docking station or separately and the Bluetooth Dock battery simultaneously.
