its a radio not a raido?

Not sure what you mean. However, I can tell you about it. Its an am/fm radio. It has a separate band for weather chanel. Its a fairly powerful flashlight. It can also send SOS flashing lights. It can also charge devices via USB. This emergency radio powers by; Batteries, solar panel and also can be cranked by a handle for 30 or so seconds as needed. Its a very useful device in an emergency. It won't call your mom though. You must call your mom yourself. Hope this answers your question.

To see battery charge level the radio must be on?

To see the current charge, you just turn on the radio switch for a second, then turn it off. The 4 little blue lights that indicate the charge will stay on for about 30 seconds, then automatically turn off. 1 light is 25%, 2 is 50%, 3 is 75%, 4 is 100% charged. The red charging light stays on when it is charging, like when it is sitting on the window sill in the sunlight.

How many batteries are required and are the batteries included with the purchase of the radio?

The radio is coming with two 18650 batteries.

Does the solar power work alone without batteries?

No. The batteries are integrated into the radio and act as a capacitor for the solar panel. The capacitor evens out the DC charge to add energy to your separate device like a phone. The solar panel alone would provide unusable inconsistent power for a phone. The solar panel charges the battery. The battery charges your phone battery. Your phone battery powers your phone.

Awesome little compact radio. The weather broadcasting is awesome and it's easy to tune and gets a great signal. Going to be great for remote camping. The hand crank option is great and functions well. Awesome it can double as an emergency phone charger too!

Feels cheaply made, no shortwave radio, not waterproof, super expensive for what it is. You can’t even tilt the solar panel to get a better angle at the sun without lighting the light. I had to pay for the return. There are a lot of better alternatives on the market for half the price, i’d also try to find a seller who offer free return. I have no idea how it got so many good reviews? Please put your hard earn money where it belongs

hand crank will not charge the phone , only works for light and radio , it is mentioned in the specification but i missed it out , it is a very important function in emergency and power failure that you will need but you wont find in this device unless you charged the power bank ahead.

They thought of everything when they made this unit. It has a AM/FM/WB (weather band) radio to keep you informed and for lighting it has a super bright LED main light as well as a top mounted LED reading lamp. Which also houses a top mounted solar charging cell to help keep the batteries charged. And the good thing is, you don't have to worry about having a supply of batteries to keep this unit running. It can be recharged several ways including a built-in hand crank, and a USB port to plug it in. And it can also keep your cell phone charged with a built-in USB port. There's also a SOS button that you can push which sends out a signal that can be picked up it's by rescue personnel. I haven't had a chance to use the unit long-term to determine the battery life but it does have a charge status LED light to show you how much battery life you have left. I'll update this review at a later time after I've had a chance to put the unit through its paces to see how long the battery lasts but once again, you can recharge it several ways such as the solar cell on top, the hand crank and the USB port to plug it in. A definite must have for your emergency kit.
