If the jobsite radio you choose has a USB port then you will be able to charge devises such as your Smartphone or music player.  Some will even allow you to charge power tool batteries which is an amazing added bonus. This is a great feature if you are working on the road or in an environment where there aren’t any plug points.  While you might pay a little extra for these added features, their usefulness will add a lot of ease to your day and it might be worth spending those extra dollars. Ultimately you need to think about what features are important to you and your day-to-day life.
