Convienient Features and Reliable Redundant Power Sources The American Red Cross FR-150 Microlink is ruggedized for outdoor use, and is more than ready to go in emergency situations. The bright white 3-LED flashlight is perfect for lighting the way at night, or for signaling to others across long distances. Additionally, the integrated headphone jack lets you listen in privacy. Having a device that sports multiple modes of communication means nothing if there is no way to power it. The FR-150 Microlink has been designed with that thought in mind, and it can be powered in several ways. The built-in rechargeable battery pack can be charged from the integrated dynamo hand crank, or from an optional AC adapter. The optional AC adapter can also power the unit directly. An array of waterproof, shatterproof, high-performance glass encapsulated amorphous solar cells can also run the FR-150. They are efficient enough to power the unit whenever the sun is up, even in overcast weather. These multiple power supplies can also be used to recharge cell phones with the charging cord–available by returning the included card and specifying your phone’s model.
