HelioWavx Emergency Radio – Solar & Hand Crank Emergency Radio with AM/FM/WX, USB Phone Charging, LED Torch, Reading Lamp & SOS Alarm

Stay Connected When the Power Goes Out with the HelioWavx Emergency Radio

When storms cause a blackout, your phone battery starts running low or you're travelling somewhere without convenient electricity, the HelioWavx Emergency Radio gives you essential radio, lighting and backup power in one compact device.

Designed for power cuts, emergency preparedness, camping, caravanning, road trips and outdoor adventures, the HelioWavx Emergency Radio combines solar charging, hand-crank power and USB charging so you're not dependent on a single source of electricity.

Tune into AM, FM and WX weather-band broadcasts, extend the telescopic antenna for available reception, illuminate dark spaces with the focused LED torch, or open the diffused LED reading lamp when you need wider area lighting.

If you need to attract attention, an integrated SOS siren with a flashing red light provides audible and visual emergency signalling. A 5V USB output also allows the built-in rechargeable battery to provide emergency power to compatible mobile phones and USB devices.

Everything is housed inside a distinctive high-visibility yellow and black casing measuring just 156 × 95 × 55mm, complete with a wrist lanyard for convenient carrying.

Whether it's stored in your home emergency kit, car, caravan or camping equipment, the HelioWavx Emergency Radio gives you a practical backup when conventional electricity isn't within reach.

Triple Charging – Solar, Hand Crank & USB Power

Three Ways to Keep Your Emergency Radio Ready

A useful emergency radio shouldn't become useless simply because the mains electricity has gone down.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio gives you three different charging methods, providing greater flexibility at home and outdoors.

Solar Charging

A built-in solar panel sits directly on top of the radio, allowing available daylight to replenish the internal battery.

Solar charging is particularly useful during:

• Camping trips

• Outdoor activities

• Extended power cuts

• Caravanning

• Remote travel

• Emergency situations

It gives you an additional source of power without requiring access to a wall socket.

Hand Crank Generator

If electricity isn't available and daylight is limited, the rear-mounted hand crank provides another solution.

Turning the crank generates electrical energy manually, giving you a self-powered backup option when other charging methods aren't available.

USB Charging

Before severe weather, camping trips or long journeys, the built-in battery can be conveniently replenished through USB.

Together, these three charging options make the HelioWavx Emergency Radio a versatile companion for unpredictable situations.

Hand Crank Emergency Power – Generate Electricity Yourself

Backup Power That Doesn't Depend on the Grid

When stored electricity runs low, the HelioWavx Emergency Radio gives you the ability to generate additional emergency power manually.

The rear hand-crank dynamo converts your movement into electrical energy as the crank is turned.

This makes HelioWavx particularly useful during:

• Extended blackouts

• Camping trips

• Remote outdoor activities

• Severe weather

• Travel emergencies

• Situations without conventional electricity

The crank gives you another level of independence when a plug socket isn't an option.

Solar Charging – Make Use of Available Daylight

An Additional Power Source Built into the Radio

The top of the HelioWavx Emergency Radio features an integrated solar panel.

Available daylight can be used to replenish the built-in rechargeable battery, making solar power a useful supplementary charging method during outdoor activities and prolonged emergencies.

It's particularly convenient when you're camping, travelling or spending extended periods away from conventional electricity.

Combined with USB and hand-crank charging, the solar panel means you're not relying on a single method of keeping the radio powered.

AM Radio – Stay Connected to Available Broadcasts

Information Without Wi-Fi or Mobile Data

When internet connectivity becomes unreliable, traditional broadcast radio can provide another important source of information.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio receives AM frequencies from 520–1700 kHz, allowing you to access compatible AM stations in your area.

AM radio can be particularly useful for:

• News

• Talk radio

• Travel information

• Local updates

• Sports commentary

• Emergency information

• Entertainment

During an extended outage, having access to traditional broadcasts gives you another way to stay connected to the outside world.

FM Radio – News, Music & Entertainment Wherever You Go

Tune into Your Favourite Available Stations

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio also supports FM frequencies from 87–108 MHz.

This gives you access to compatible local and national FM stations for music, news, weather information and entertainment.

FM reception makes HelioWavx useful beyond emergency situations too.

Take it camping, keep it in your caravan or use it during outdoor trips whenever you want portable radio without depending on internet streaming.

WX Weather Band – Additional Weather Information in Supported Regions

Dedicated Weather-Band Reception

Alongside AM and FM, the HelioWavx Emergency Radio includes a WX weather band designed for NOAA Weather Radio broadcasts.

NOAA provides dedicated weather and emergency broadcasts across supported areas of North America, making this function useful for travel and emergency preparedness in those regions.

For customers in the UK and other areas outside NOAA coverage, the AM and FM functions can be used to access compatible local news and weather broadcasts.

Telescopic Antenna – Reach for Better Reception

Adjustable Positioning for Available Radio Signals

Radio reception can vary depending on your surroundings, distance from transmitters, buildings and terrain.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio includes an extendable telescopic antenna, giving you greater flexibility to position the antenna for available reception.

It's particularly useful when listening:

• Indoors during power cuts

• At campsites

• In caravans

• In rural locations

• During road trips

• Around unfamiliar areas

When the radio isn't being used, the antenna retracts neatly against the unit for compact storage.

5V USB Phone Charging – Emergency Power for Your Mobile

Keep Essential Communication Within Reach

During an extended power cut, keeping your mobile phone powered can become increasingly important.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio includes a 5V USB output that allows its built-in rechargeable battery to provide emergency power to compatible smartphones and USB devices.

This can help maintain access to:

• Phone calls

• Text messages

• Navigation

• Stored emergency information

• Other essential phone functions

Combined with the radio's alternative charging options, the USB output gives HelioWavx another useful role within your emergency equipment.

Focused LED Torch – Find Your Way Through the Dark

Built-In Lighting for Blackouts & Outdoor Adventures

A sudden power cut at night can leave an entire home in darkness.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio features an integrated focused LED torch, providing convenient directional illumination without requiring a separate flashlight.

It's ideal for:

• Navigating dark rooms

• Finding emergency supplies

• Checking fuse boxes

• Walking around campsites

• Inspecting your vehicle

• Outdoor activities after sunset

• Roadside situations

Because the torch is built directly into the radio, essential lighting remains close to your communication and backup power equipment.

Fold-Out LED Reading Lamp – Wider Light Where You Need It

Soft, Diffused Illumination for Rooms and Tents

Sometimes a focused torch isn't what you need.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio also features a fold-out diffused LED reading lamp designed to spread light across a wider area.

The lamp is useful for:

• Reading during a blackout

• Lighting a tent

• Checking maps

• Preparing food

• Playing cards

• Illuminating a table

• Organising emergency equipment

• Creating comfortable campsite lighting

Having both directional and diffused lighting makes HelioWavx adaptable to different situations.

SOS Siren – Make Yourself Heard in an Emergency

Audible Signalling When You Need Attention

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio includes an integrated SOS siren designed to attract nearby attention.

If you're stranded, experiencing a roadside problem or dealing with an outdoor emergency, the audible signal gives you another way to alert people around you.

The SOS function is particularly useful during:

• Roadside breakdowns

• Camping emergencies

• Outdoor trips

• Severe weather

• Power cuts

• Low-light situations

It's one more emergency function built into a device that's designed to stay close at hand.

Red Flashing SOS Light – Make Yourself Easier to Spot

Visual Emergency Signalling After Dark

Alongside the audible siren, the HelioWavx Emergency Radio provides a flashing red emergency light.

Combining visual and audible signalling can help make your position more noticeable, particularly after dark or in low-light environments.

The flashing red light can be useful around:

• Broken-down vehicles

• Campsites

• Outdoor emergency situations

• Dark buildings

• Power outages

Together with the bright yellow and black casing, the emergency light helps make HelioWavx easier to identify when visibility is limited.

High-Visibility Yellow & Black Design – Easy to Find When Every Second Counts

Emergency Equipment That Doesn't Disappear into the Background

Emergency equipment isn't much help if you can't find it quickly.

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio features a distinctive yellow and black casing designed to stand out among other equipment.

Its high-visibility appearance makes it easier to locate inside:

• Emergency bags

• Kitchen cupboards

• Car boots

• Camping equipment

• Caravans

• Tool storage

• Outdoor gear

When the lights suddenly go out, a brightly coloured emergency device can be far easier to identify than an ordinary dark-coloured radio.

Compact 156 × 95 × 55mm Design – Emergency Features Without the Bulk

Easy to Store at Home or Take Outdoors

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio measures just 156 × 95 × 55mm, packing multiple emergency functions into a compact body.

Its space-saving dimensions make it suitable for:

• Home emergency kits

• Camping bags

• Car emergency equipment

• Caravans

• Motorhomes

• Travel luggage

• Outdoor equipment

You get radio, lighting, emergency signalling, alternative charging and USB power without carrying several separate devices.

Wrist Lanyard – Keep Your Emergency Radio Close

Convenient Carrying Around the Home or Outdoors

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio includes a wrist lanyard, making it easier to carry while moving around during a blackout or outdoor activity.

It's particularly useful when you're:

• Walking around a dark home

• Setting up a campsite

• Checking a vehicle

• Moving emergency equipment

• Travelling

• Exploring outdoors

The lanyard also provides a convenient way to hang or secure the radio when appropriate.

A Smart Addition to Your Home Emergency Kit

Keep it ready for access to:

• AM/FM radio

• Backup lighting

Instead of searching for separate equipment after the electricity has already gone out, you can keep HelioWavx ready as part of your household emergency supplies.

HelioWavx Emergency Radio for Camping

Radio, Light & Backup Power Away from Home

The HelioWavx Emergency Radio is just as useful around a campsite as it is during a household blackout.

Use the FM radio for entertainment, the reading lamp for evening lighting, the focused torch for walking after dark and the USB output for emergency phone power.

If you're away from mains electricity, solar and hand-crank charging give you additional ways to replenish the built-in battery.

Ideal for

• Camping

• Caravanning

• Fishing

• Hiking bases

• Outdoor holidays

• Festivals

• Motorhome trips

• Remote travel

Its compact dimensions make it easy to include alongside your existing outdoor equipment.
