The Storm Station All in One Rechargeable Power Source/Radio/Light
The Storm Station from Black and Decker is an affordable device which is meant to help keep you prepared for a natural disaster situation, but it would probably be useful for campers as well. The Storm Station has a weather radio, a 25 watt power source to power low voltage items such as your cell phone or a room light, and it also comes with a detachable flashlight. It also has a locator light that automatically turns on when the power goes out so that you can locate it. The Storm Station retails for $100.

oh yeah cause yur cool wtf(what the fuck)this is like the gayest thing i saw on here omf(oh my fuck)get some better ideas then this!!!plz plz plz!!! thnx for yur cooperation~~~~thake it off!!!! im saving yur career for this~~thnx!!!!
Call me “Mr. Preparedness” Because of my family situation over the last years I have become, if not obsessed with preparing for problems and disasters, then at least highly concerned. And over the last years I have been forced to deal with more than my share of power failures. So when I saw this item advertised on television I decided that if it did half of what it promised it’d still be a good thing to have in the house. As it turns out, it does everything as promised.
I won’t say that it will give you a lot of power, but it does give you light enough to work by, will power small appliances such as a home phone, and has a recharging outlet for things like cell phones. It also provides a radio with several useful bands as well as standard AM/FM ones. This makes it an all-around great item to have standing by if you live in an area where storms can knock out your power for several hours or even a day. The charge won’t last forever, so if you’re in a place where outages can be long-term, this is more like a band-aid. But it’s a pretty nice one. Seems sturdy, and provides a detachable flashlight that’s handy to have around all the time, not just during outages. You always know where to find it and that it’ll work for you. Provided you’ve remembered to put it back on the unit!
As a sidebar here, I’d like to suggest a few things that might make this item even more useful: First, get a hand-cranked radio just for entertainment purposes. Don’t waste the charge on this if you think the power outage is going to be long-term. Second, always have a good, basic telephone on hand somewhere. Just one that will run on the current provided by the phone line. Again, why waste the charge on this unit just for a phone? Let this be part of your lifeline for emergencies and use it wisely. A good first aid kit, some non-perishable ready to eat food, spare batteries and finally some FRS 14-22 Channel Radios (Emergency Channel is 1) More info at http://www.ready.gov
