Does any anon here have one of these novelty handcrank radios?
Do they work? I'm not expecting much in terms of reception quality, but am wondering if the crank will just break or the charge you can build up by cranking is so miniscule it's basically not worth it, in which case I might just get a radio that's not cranked/solar powered. There's ones that can do FM/AM and SW (which this one can't) for half the price if you just don't care about that crank.
I'd mostly use it to larp so I can go hiking without my phone but still catch those scheduled weather forecasts.
