The Eton FR500 Solarlink ($80) is similar to other Eton emergency devices — functioning as an AM/FM/shortwave/NOAA weather radio, LED flashlight, SOS beacon and siren — but with the added ability to be powered by integrated solar panels. So if the handcrank, AC adapter or AA batteries fail, you'll still be able to listen for survival instructions. Assuming you can get safely outdoors to the sunlight without the zombies spotting you.
