“Transporting batteries can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e. packed in suitcases and carryon luggage) UNLESS they are properly protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries, make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.”

Power System

This unit has a unique power system. Its primary power source is the standard “C” dry cell battery.

This unit also comes with a built-in Ni-MH Rechargeable Backup Battery, that serves as “auxiliary” power for the AM/FM Weather Alert Radio and LED Emergency Light should no other power source be available. This auxiliary power system may be recharged using the Fold-Away Hand Crank.

Note: Backup battery power will only operate the Radio and LED Emergency Light. IT CANNOT POWER THE LANTERN.
