XHDATA D-608WB Emergency Crank Weather Radio — NOAA, Solar & Hand Crank Powered

Stay Informed When the Power Goes Out.

When a storm knocks out the grid, your phone battery dies, and the internet goes down, a hand-crank emergency radio is the one device that keeps working. The XHDATA D-608WB receives NOAA weather alerts and AM/FM broadcasts, charges via solar panel or hand crank when no power is available, and doubles as a flashlight and phone charger. It’s the kind of device you hope you never need — and will be very glad you have when you do.

Frequently Asked Questions

How effective is the hand crank charging?
The hand crank is designed for emergency use, not primary charging. Approximately 1 minute of cranking provides 5–10 minutes of radio playback. It’s enough to stay informed during an emergency, not enough to replace regular charging for daily use.

Can it charge my phone?
Yes — the USB output can charge a smartphone from the radio’s internal battery. Charge the radio fully via USB before an emergency so the battery is ready when you need it.

Does it receive NOAA alerts automatically?
Tune to any of the 7 NOAA weather channels (162.400–162.550 MHz) to receive live weather broadcasts and emergency alerts. Some models include an alert mode that activates automatically when an emergency broadcast is detected — check your specific unit’s manual for this feature.
