With all the natural disasters that happen every year, does anyone have any battery operated radio's on standby "just in case"? I have a few in my garage and I test the batteries every so often to make sure they're charged.

You can buy radios that use rechargeable batteries and have multiple charging methods, e.g. AC adapter, solar, hand crank generator, etc.

We have one of those Ryobi construction radios that can be plugged in or use the rechargeable batteries. I really like it because you can use the batteries for the flashlights and tools too.

We actually have a radio/flashlight combination that we keep in our basement. We live in an area where tornadoes are common and we want to be prepared.

So far we have been lucky and never needed it, but my husband checks it twice a year when he checks the smoke alarms.
