Additional Prep Item AM/FM/Weather Radio with Flashlight and crank - $18
... Nice small radio/flashlight for home or to keep in the glove box of your car (2/3 the size of a paperback book) example: [ link to www.walmart.com (secure)] If you can crank to charge the batteries without using it would be great... Don't think I've seen one that does that. Ever seen one like that? (I might absentmindedly crank it when just sitting around if there's nothing else to do) OK, starting with the rechargeable batteries totally dead I cranked it for 1 minute then turned on the radio and it played for 4 1/2 minutes before dying with the volume at a small room filling level. This radio also takes 3 AA batteries so operating off of regular batteries I would expect it to play for many many hours. The rechargeable feature though is nice in the event the regular AA batteries are dead.
