Why Three Power Sources?
Any one power source can let you down. A battery runs flat, the sun goes in, the mains go off. So Ironhold gives you three, in the order you'll use them.
- Stored battery. Charge it by USB now and keep it in the drawer. This is what you'll use first.
- Sun. The solar panel gives a slow trickle top-up on a windowsill or outdoors. It's a helper, not a fast charger.
- Hand crank. Always works, day or night. Cranking keeps the radio and torch going. For a phone it gives an emergency top-up, not a full charge.
Build, Care & Storage
- Charge it fully before you store it, then top it up every 3 months.
- Keep it at room temperature, somewhere you can find in the dark.
- Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Keep it away from water: it has no certified water-resistance rating.
- Fold the antenna and crank away after use so nothing snags.

Power, light and news — even when London goes dark.
Most of us lean on our phones for everything. In a power cut, the battery's on a countdown and the signal can go with the mains.
Ironhold gives you three things back: light, the radio, and power for your phone, from a battery you charge in advance, the sun, or a few minutes of cranking.
At home, in the car or on a camping trip, you're ready for the basics.
When the power goes, here's what stops working
The lights go first. Then the Wi-Fi router, and with it the TV and the smart speaker. Mobile data can slow down or drop too, and your phone battery is on a countdown from the moment the mains go off.
That leaves you without the news just when you want it. Ironhold gives it back: an FM/AM radio that needs no internet, a torch and reading lamp, and a way to top up your phone, powered by a battery you charged earlier, the sun, or the hand crank.
Why Ironhold Works
Three Ways to Power
A battery you charge in advance, a solar panel for a slow daytime top-up, and a hand crank that works any time. If one runs out, you have two more.
FM Radio Without Signal
FM and AM are broadcast over the air. There is no internet, no app and no mobile signal involved, so the radio keeps working when the broadband is down.
Charges Your Phone
The USB output tops up a phone from the built-in battery. From the hand crank alone it is an emergency top-up for a call or a few texts, not a full charge.
Torch + Reading Lamp
An LED torch for moving around and a fold-out reading lamp to light a table, so you are not using up your phone as a torch.
SOS Alarm
A loud alarm to attract attention if you need help, at home, in the car or outdoors.
Ready in the Drawer
Most emergency kit goes flat in a drawer. Ironhold Ready Club sends a First Sunday reminder to check, charge and test it, so it works on the day you need it.

Common Questions
Will this actually work in a power cut?
Yes. It doesn't need the mains, Wi-Fi or a mobile signal. The radio, torch and reading lamp run from the built-in battery. If that runs low, the solar panel tops it up slowly in daylight, and the hand crank works at any time.
How do I charge it, and how long does it take?
Plug it into any USB charger. A full charge takes [charge time to be confirmed] and gives about [radio hours to be confirmed] of radio. Charge it fully when it arrives, then keep it in a drawer you can find in the dark.
Can the hand crank charge my phone?
It can give your phone an emergency top-up, but it won't fully charge it: [phone top-up figure to be confirmed]. The crank is best at keeping the radio and torch going. One minute of cranking gives about [minutes to be confirmed] of radio.
Why do I need a radio if I have a phone?
In a long power cut your phone battery is limited, and Wi-Fi and mobile data can slow down or stop. FM and AM radio is broadcast over the air, so it keeps working with no internet and no signal bars. Local radio stations broadcast updates during major incidents.
Does it get UK stations? Is it DAB?
It receives FM (87–108 MHz) and AM (530–1700 kHz), which covers UK FM stations such as BBC Radio 2, Radio 4 and your local stations. It is not a DAB digital radio.
How long does it hold its charge in a drawer?
Like any rechargeable battery, it slowly loses charge in storage. Top it up every 3 months. The Ironhold Ready Club sends a short reminder on the first Sunday of each month so you never find it flat.
Is it waterproof?
No. It has no certified water-resistance rating, so keep it dry and bring it inside in heavy rain.
Is it easy for an older parent to use?
Yes. It uses physical knobs and switches: no apps, accounts or menus. We suggest charging it and tuning it to their local station before you give it to them, so it's ready to go.
How long will delivery take?
Free UK delivery on every order. In-stock orders are dispatched by the date shown next to the Add To Cart button. Delivery: [delivery time to be confirmed].
