Spend less time finding your radio in an emergency; if charging, the flashlight will automatically turn on during a power outage, so you can always have light.

Emergency alert button

With the T478, you can easily access help in a dangerous situation. By pressing the radio’s dedicated emergency alert button, you can transmit a loud alert siren to nearby radios. The alert is followed by voice or sounds from your environment, so others can help you to safety.

Keep power with the T478’s included charging tray and micro-usb power supply. Nowhere to charge? No problem - AA standard alkaline batteries also power the T478 for up to 28 hours.

With an IP54 weatherproof design, the T478 walkie-talkie can withstand the effects of rain, snow and other weather conditions, so you don’t have to worry about your radio breaking in tougher conditions, emergency or not.
