Comments about 12-N 1 TOOL SELF POWERED EMERGENCY COMPANION:

Lights work, but are dim. Compass isn't that easy to keep steady to be able to point. Radio does not have AM or Short Wave, which would be useful. Alarm isn't as loud as I thought it would be. But as far as useful when you have no batteries and no power, it works just fine.

Wish it came with a wire for the AC input. I like the fact that it's pretty small, yet has lots of functions.

Comments about 12-N 1 TOOL SELF POWERED EMERGENCY COMPANION:

Two things really put this emergency tool head and shoulders above the rest. First, it’s self-powered—you don’t need batteries, just turn the hand crank. I can’t imagine anything worse than needing an emergency tool, and finding the batteries are dead so it’s useless… Second, the security alarm feature—an absolutely fantastic idea, especially for frequent travelers, lets you sleep anywhere with real peace of mind!
