Freeplay Eyemax AM/FM Radio RE1TB
Item #: RE1TB

The EyeMax radio delivers a fascinating new sensory dimension to radio listening. The crystal clear casing highlights the complex inner workings of the radio and engages the user in the science of converting human energy into pure listening pleasure. The EyeMax promises assured listening while boasting an integrated LED flashlight. Offering solar, self-charge, and external recharge power options, the EyeMax delivers complete independence from wall power or disposable batteries, ensuring sustainable access to entertainment, information and illumination. Freeplay�s patented self-charge technology means unparalleled playtime performance, and the compelling design makes the EyeMax a feature of your home or office. At normal volume, the EyeMax will play for approximately an hour per 1-minute wind, and can be wound more at any time for as much play time as you want. An LED charge level indicator tells you the best speed to wind. In direct sunlight the EyeMax will charge itself and play continuously � the internal Ni-MH battery can be fully charged from either the solar panel or the external charging adapter.

When fully charged the EyeMax will give 25 hours of playtime (at normal volume), and an earphone socket allows personal listening as desired. Although stylish and fun, the EyeMax does not compromise on robustness and quality, with mechanical components made from superior materials, specified to industrial standards for repeated use and long life. The Freeplay EyeMax invites participation in the eco-charge revolution � providing clean dependable access to entertainment, information and illumination anytime, anywhere.

Benefits

• Black rubberized finish makes the Eyemax Weather Band splash-proof and comfortable to grip.

• The Eyemax offers a real alternative to grid electricity or fossil fuels, so you can feel cleaner about your nature experience. Never worry about buying, carrying or disposing of batteries again.
• When your batteries run out and you need to wind for power, the Freeplay self-charge mechanism converts over 74% of your kinetic energy into stored electricity.
• Self-charge while playing anytime to top up the power � never miss the end of that song, the end of the game or that last item in the news report.
• The integrated LED is a vital source of light in blackouts, or just when checking your alarm clock at your bedside in the morning.
