If your portable weather radio's flashlight function is the most critical feature for you, we highly recommend the Givoust Emergency Weather Crank Radio. The LED bulb on this model easily outshined the rest during our assessment. The display on this device is exceptionally easy to read, thanks to its extra-large LCD. The Givoust has the industry-standard USB in and out jacks, but it also has an auxiliary input as well as an included double-male auxiliary cord. In the case of a real emergency, this device has an easily accessed SOS button that activates a very loud siren and flashes the LCD light to let others know that you require help. 
As much as we love the Givoust, we did find a few fundamental shortcomings. This model is very bulky &mdash; it's probably not the best choice for backpacking or keeping in a car with limited cargo space. During our sound pressure level meter measurements, we found the radio speaker can only produce 64.5 decibels. If the volume is a purchasing factor for you, we'd advise that you go with a louder weather radio. Flaws aside, we're big fans of the Givoust design, and it'd be hard to beat the brightness of the flashlight feature.
