The Los Angeles wildfires have caused devastating damage to Los Angeles families and even caused loss of life. The tragedy is heartbreaking. Disasters may happen in an instant, but how to deal with emergencies is important for every family. Recently, a father asked me how to choose a home emergency intercom. In an emergency, the most important thing for a family is to stay in touch with their family. Let's take a look at how to choose a home emergency radio.

1.GMRS Radio

First, it is very simple to obtain a GMRS license. You only need to apply for it. It costs only $10 for 35 years, and family members can use the GMR radio under the guidance of the license holder. The GMRS walkie-talkie allows the antenna to be removed, which is suitable for outdoor long-distance communication. Whether in an emergency or when camping outdoors, GMRS radio is very suitable for use between families

2. Waterproof and sturdy

Whether it is used outdoors or in emergency, you will encounter unexpected weather conditions, so you should choose a sturdy and waterproof walkie-talkie that is as drop-proof or waterproof as possible. For example, the Ailunce HA1G GMRS Radio has a hard shell, is drop-proof, and has an IP67 waterproof rating, so it can be used normally even in heavy rain.

3. Easy to use

Most amateur radios are not friendly to families or non-radio professionals. Home walkie-talkies should be easy to operate and should also have a VFO function that can change frequencies. Only in this way can you get more chances to call for help in an emergency. Ailunce HA1G two-way radio has a 1.77-inch color screen and a simple and easy-to-use user interface, so even novices can get started quickly. Of course, it also supports VFO mode.

4. Large battery capacity

Battery capacity, working time, and standby time are also issues that need to be considered for emergency walkie-talkies. After a disaster, we usually encounter power shortages, which means that the walkie-talkie cannot be charged conveniently anytime and anywhere, so the walkie-talkie is required to have a large battery and long standby time. The HA1G GMRS walkie-talkie has a large 2800mAh battery, which can be used for 17 hours after being fully charged and 5 days on standby. It also has a power saving mode, which can be used longer in an emergency.

5. Ailunce HA1G GMRS Radio

The Ailunce HA1G is a rugged, long-range, IP67 waterproof GMRS two-way radio that is the best choice for home use. It is easy to learn and has features such as VFO mode, emergency alert, NOAA, etc., providing reliable communication for family members in emergency situations.
