Performance
The KA600 battery reached a complete charge in 1 hour and forty-five minutes, making it the quickest charging radio. That said, the battery only lasted one and a half hours when we played it at complete volume.
The most significant downside to its subpar battery life is that you must charge it frequently. Luckily, it also runs on disposable batteries, so you can use the rechargeable battery as a second energy source.
Two minutes of turning the Voyager pro dynamo crank promised an average of 3 and a half minutes of battery life when the radio played a complete volume.
The radio did ok in AM reception tests and the backcountry test. Further, it scored well in the F.M. reception tests. F.M. and AM scores should mean it is the best fit for someone that wants to use it as a traditional radio to listen to music. Its NOAA weather band reception is similar to that of other crank radios.
The highest volume is just 76.7 dB at one meter from the speaker, making it one of the best radios we reviewed. Louder crank radios are excellent for backcountry hiking because making loud noise can help search and rescue find you.

All these specs need to be saved somewhere, making it one of the heavier choices you could buy.

If you find some room for it, it will make a massive difference to your experience.
As for the price, you can guess this to be one of the most costly choices on the market today and for the best reason.
