The price of DAB radios certainly seems to be dropping. I have a Pure T4 and if you can get one for the right price they are excellent. They do come up cheap now and again on fleabay.

I got the ‘pro sport S1' which seemed to have pretty good reviews so hopefully will be ok . I didn't find a great selection which were small , had an external speaker and had a built in rechargeable battery . The battery life seemed pretty poor in general so rechargeable for me seemed the way to go .Time will tell but hopefully 🤞

I've got this in my eBay waiting at the min I was a bit worried about it being so cheap to whether it was any good or not and that's it will last but seems to have for you? So what's the signal and all like on it pretty decent for the money?

Cheers

Signal is fine mate, the only thing I will say about them is they don't display station names etc, just channel number after you've tuned it in, apart from that well worth the cash for all the functions you get. By the way, Powapacs used to sell these for £49.99 on their site, just checked and they're now reduced to £29.99. I had an ebay voucher when I got mine so cost me about 18 quid I think.

Spot on daz At 20 odd quid that's a fair price for the size of it need to downsize everything Does it have a decent battery life or can you get ahold of replacements and swap them out through the session mate?

I ordered one on your recommendation it arrived today and is great for the £20 it cost I have loads of the batteries as well so don't even need to charge it. Small and light exactly what I wanted. Thanks.

It takes 18650 batteries mate, of which I have loads for my vaping gear, you can also recharge with a power pac. As with all DAB radios battery life isn't as good as a normal am/fm radio but that hasn't bothered me because of the batteries.

Are you sure?
