Q: QuestionCan a cell phone be charged with the Midland - Emergency Crank Weather Alert Radio?

Asked 1 year ago by Tom.

• A:Answer This charger may not be suitable for modern cell phones due to its limited charging capacity. It may have been adequate for older phones released around 2001, but it falls short of the requirements of today's devices. While it serves its purpose, the charging output is insufficient for many items, potentially limiting its use to rechargeable flashlights or similar low-power devices.
