That looks perfect and AAAs is what I need since everything of mine runs off of them. Thanks!

looks nice. one feature on it tho im leery of is the auto turn on for alerts. was awakened twice now by amber alerts in the middle of the night. once while living in nw indiana and still working. happened in middle of night after a long day at work and was for an amber alert that was nearly at the wisc. border. am not a hater and have feelings for kids but give me a break. have opted out of this service on my cell phone as well after a couple of night time wake up alerts here in ga. seems as tho a weather alert radio should be for weather..
