Can the hand crank be attached to a hamster wheel so that it may be charged by rodents?

If you could cobble together a 40:1 or so gear reduction or pully system it would probably be possible to make this hamster powered. It would take a full night of steady running to partially charge it though.

Can it be charged with a plug in USB charger instead of a computer?

Hi, The product has been upgraded 2023 newest version, 2000mAh+SOS+Battery Level Indicator + USB C

I want to use this primarily for the radio. When charged, how many hours of radio use is there?

I charged a new out of the box radio for 8 hours with USB. The radio played for 19:45 at 1/4 volume. Loud enough to clearly understand a weather forecast in a quiet room. But not loud enough to dance to music.

Hi, if i charge this unit by the day time sun, will it hold its charge until i wanna use the flashlight/radio at night?

Yes,It will hold a charge. Wether you crank it. Set it in a window, or plug it in a wall. I use this on backpacking trips. I usually wall charge it before I leave. It really doesn't draw a lot of power fast from the sun. However you can crank it a few times and the flashlight runs for a long time.

Arrived ahead of time & well packed. Very bright torch light with the addition of usb port so am able to charge phone etc, and a loud alarm courtesy of wind-up handle. Radio also very good. For its size & price it’s perfect for my family needs considering the instability of the world right now & would recommend to anyone.
