Customer Reviews
I too thought that the cell phone adaptor was missing from the box. However, upon closer inspection, you will find a card that you must send in to the manufacturer to get the proper adaptor for your phone. Once you've done that, you will be sent the appropriate adaptor for your specific phone within a few weeks. At this point in time there is no standardization of cell phone chargers (which is unfortunate) so this is how they address this issue. This is a very handy device and great in a power outage.
This was purchased as a gift for my grandson, specifically so that he might charge a cell phone battery in emergencies. The Cell Phone Charging Adapter was not included in the box. How do we aquire one? Otherwise, the little radio is a gem. It would have a FIVE star rating, if adapter had been included, as advertised.
