I charged it using the sun, but even though I had shut if completely off it still used up all the charged that I saved. Once you re-charge it you have to reset everything (time, radio signals, etc.) Didn't like that. The crank doesn't hold a charge for too long either. I cranked it for the recommended time, and it certainly didn't last the amount of time that the book that came with it said it would. I'm afraid to place batteries in it, as it will eat through that charge too. For now I am keeping batteries out of it, but with it in case I need it. You have to order separate cell phone charger, and a plug charger from their website. So overall I'm not impressed with the amt of time it holds a charge. That was just using the radio, not any of the other functions i:e light, or siren.
