Looking at buying a wind up radio but struggling on where to get one and which one?

Or if they are even worth buying?

  No

 

Unless you are desperate.  Like wind up lights, look good in theory, but useless in  practice.

I bought a Duronic Hybrid Radio after reading good reviews about it.

However, I tend to use solar power to charge it up instead of winding it up.

Yep agree with oldham, we have a gelert that uses wind up and solar, they do work but reception is poor, we now a take a DAB radio great reception and no winding up every 10mins.

But you need ehu unless you have a power pack thet you can recharge.
