I bought this hand crank/solar radio with torch on eBay. I think it's great. It was under $16 delivered. I bought a different kind previously, the radio did not work (even after me complaining and they sent another one) I guess it was configured for China radio or something. On this one the crank is very sturdy. It has two cables, one with a USB fitting for charging. It has the ability for phone charging, though you would need to buy a fitting to fit into the little socket on one of the cables provided. Unlike some other cheap hand crank radios the collapsible aerial can be extended (instead of just a loose wire). It took a while to arrive, about 25 days but it was free postage so I'm not complaining. This is the link on eBay if anyone is interested. radio
