In addition, the Eton Solarlink features a built-in cell phone charger, headphone connector, and a telescopic antenna designed for maximum range and reception. Priced at $79.99 and weighing slightly under 2 pounds, the Eton FR500 Solarlink is described a being the most reliable and powerful lightweight, portable radio receiver available on the market.
