    Small Portable Radio's?

    Just to plant a thought: Are you set on either of those two? Maybe pocket size? The form factor? If you haven't considered it, take a look at the HDR-14. It is bigger, but still small. I carried it in a backpack pocket when traveling for several years of 2-3 trips per month. I don't...

    Small Portable Radio's?

    I bought the Sangean HDR-14, was delivered earlier today, and I set it up and played with it a bit. I like it. Plan to use it as a travel radio, if it works out.

    Small Portable Radio's?

    What LED flashlight is sitting on your nightstand?

    Presently I have an inexpensive small flashlight on the windowsill beside the bed all the time, but also an Olight S1R on charge in the bedroom at night. Starting tonight (if delivered today) I will have an Olight mini on the windowsill or the desk beside the bed at night.

    Olight S Mini Cu CW and Ti NW review with measurements (XM-L2, CR123A/RCR123/16340)

    The original post is old, I know, but I also appreciate the great review very much. Just order the titanium version of (I think) this model and it is supposed to be delivered today.
