Specification

Display

Featuring a large 9-inch screen, you can look at useful information like temperature, month/date/week/hour. To ease your eyes you can even switch between 3 different brightness levels.

Sleep Mode Sounds: 4 Types of Natural sounds

You can set four types of natural sounds to choose from to help you relax gradually and sleep well.

FM Radio Channel tuning

Another highlight of the product is the fine tuning of stations using a dial type rotating snooze button which provides a much easier user friendly method to manually scan for different radio stations. Especially during the night hours, in low light conditions when you want to switch between different radio stations , what can be sometimes very frustrating compared to the standard Left/Right scanning push buttons found in most FM radios.

3.5 mm Audio jack

3.5 mm Headphone Jack Adapter lets you connect devices such as earphones or headphones with a built-in audio jack. A feature that is not very common in most FM alarm type radios, but is available on the BlitzWolf radio.

USB Host Port

Another useful feature that comes built-in the radio is the option to charge mobile devices through the USB Host located on the right side of the radio.

The USB port does not support fast charging, but it does support the 5V-1A (Max) charging, which is better than nothing and is more than enough for example to charge smart watches.

Unboxing

Design & Looks

Focusing on design. The shape of the radio is very economic with a large base and a big 9 inch clear visible display you can easily view across few meters. On the device display you get useful information such as date/month/year/temperature and the large clock display you can set to 12/24H format. According to the device specifications, the radio needs a power supply source of 5V-2A.  By default, the BW-LAC1 radio package does not include a power adapter, so you will need to purchase one separately with an integrated USB port.

Also important to mention that the radio doesn’t come with a built-in rechargeable battery, just a backup battery to store clock data in case of power outage. The radio is designed to function as a stationary device and not portable, that can be placed in bedrooms, living rooms and so forth, but if it’s really necessary, you can hook it an external power bank battery source which is less elegant in appearance, but also works well.

Operation

The main highlight of the BW-LAC1 Radio is most likely related to the fact that it’s very easy to operate and setup. The tuner/snooze tuning button greatly helps in configuring all necessary settings.

Two Button Radio Operation

Super easy to operate using just two buttons! The tuner/snooze tuning button and the FM radio for switching the radio on and off. If you need to store radio stations in the unit’s memory, you will find this option does not exist in this product.

Having said that, we are talking about a rather negligible drawback because the scanning band range is not too wide, between 87.5-108MHz so it takes less than a minute to find a preferred radio station using the tuner/snooze button.

Sound Quality

For a 3W speaker, the audio quality of this radio was reasonable. We didn’t detect any special sound distortions. Bottom line, our general impression was positive.

Headphone Jack

We love the idea of adding a headphone jack. In our opinion, the audio levels were not too high or medium at best, even when the volume setting was set to the highest level.

Low light LED Bar

The radio comes with a decorative LED Bar that works as type of low light lamp which also lets you access the operating keys during the night. Overall, it adds a nice touch to the radio external look. You can turn on the light by pressing the control button and then adjusting the brightness levels by pressing the brightness level button (#8).

Verdict

The BW-LAC1 radio is an attractive product with a cool design. You can’t get a better deal for $27.99 in terms of quality and design for this low price tag. It is easy and user-friendly to use, making it an ideal choice for seniors as well as none tech users looking for above decent radio with minimum keys to operate.
