The Albrecht DR 114 is the perfect companion for all camping enthusiasts. As a true multitasker, this compact outdoor radio not only provides listeners with current information and music (receiving via FM, DAB+, and streaming) while on the go, but it also serves as a flashlight, camping light, and power bank – all without the need for an external power source! As a solar radio or hand-crank radio, the DR 114 is independent of external power sources, making it ideal for all camping trips and outdoor activities such as hiking, picnics, beach outings, and of course, everyday situations. Once back home or in the car, the DR 114 can be conveniently charged via the USB-C port.
With its robust housing, the DR 114 is highly shock-resistant and water-protected according to the IPX5 standard. Last but not least, the integrated SOS alarm function allows for sending visual and acoustic distress signals in case of emergencies!
The Federal Office for Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance recommends acquiring a hand-crank radio. This is due to predictable and unpredictable dangers, such as flooding, heavy snowfall with avalanches, or widespread, prolonged power outages. Often, the main warning and information medium available is a radio that must be powered by a battery or rechargeable battery. The hand-crank radios Albrecht DR112 and DR114 are well-suited for this purpose, as they not only meet all other requirements but also feature an integrated solar panel and a hand crank to function without external power supply. At the same time, the DAB+ radios can also be used as a power bank to charge smartphones and other USB devices.
