I suspect it is a rechargeable cell that the designers thoughtThat's a bad design, that the battery of such a thing can not be replaced "easily".>AM radio can be leveraged for wide area coverage without requiring>
lots of other technology to keep it operational. And, the receivers
can run for long periods of time on batteries (that are likely
stale) or clock-spring mechanisms (emergency radios).
I have seen radios with a hand spun dynamo.
I have one with a clockwork mechanism -- wind up a large spring and
it drives a small "generator" as it unwinds. It takes about 5 minutes
to unwind completely so it's a relatively low "winding" duty cycle.

But, it is large-ish.

It also has solar cells and a small, internal battery (which is toast;
but, attempting to disassemble it to replace the battery would likely
result in a mess of gears and torsion spring parts!) As the spring mechanism
will run the radio despite the bad battery, it seems a safer plan to just
tolerate the bad battery!
