You're out in the woods, it's getting dark, and your mobile phone is out of juice.

Here's an alternative to panicking - you pull out your Pocket Pal - Eton FR140 Microlink, which is solar powered, or if that fails, has a handy crank.

Weighing only 200g, it combines an AM/FM/Shortwave handheld radio with a torch and mobile phone charger.

It is £29.95.

  • Just received my FR140. . Unable to charge my Nokia2600. Will not charge with USB cable. SW reception almost non existent. Crank handle does not seem very robust. Basically paid £30 for a torch. Posted by Ian, uk
