Is this a Wind-up?
Wind-up radio – rockin’ all over the world
Surely you can’t buy a neat-looking AM, FM and short-wave radio/torch that works without battery or mains power for less than $40 (30)?
Well, you can now thanks to a rugged new American unit — the Eton Grundig FR200 (buy it at the end of this story). Its just the latest in a long line of self-powered radios, spawned by the Freeplay Foundation’s attempts to bring communications to remote 3rd world villages.
After witnessing a desperate need for alternative energy sources amidst the world’s poorest communities, the Freeplay Foundation was founded in 1998 by the Freeplay Energy Group.
