Got one of those in my basket, struggling to make up my mind on it as my old one packed up during my last session and this one looked decent

Sold my pure move as it was slowly failing after 10+yrs of abuse, and bought an august dab radio, first impressions are good, 20+ hrs of listening on a charge, small and light, what's not to like!

I have 2 Sony radios they like a little box charge,them up they each last 24 hours and I've got a vintage looking DAB radio as well but that takes batteries but they last surprisingly long between replacements,I'm doing a night tonight after work and one of my Sony ones will do,I take 3 during long sessions like a week always like to have something in the back ground.

I was looking for the same last year and got recommended this one on year, it's absolutely brilliant.
Great reception, good sound and
The battery life is decent. You can charge using your power pack too.

The bonus for me is that it's a small UK company based just up the road from where I live.

It's a Majority that I need to replace. Has been great for the 18 months or so that I've had it and it's simply stopped working. Changed batteries and played around with it and it simply has no life left in it so personally avoiding them and looking for something that will last a little longer

Have you tried contacting them to see what they can do for you?

I've also got an August - does the job - small enough and decent sound although I'm only listening to Radio 4 / LBC / Talksport. Battery does deplete so for sessions you'll need a powerpack
Also got a Goodmans DAB Pocket radio (which is tiny) that I take on river sessions (its half the size of a typical mobile phone) which lasts a lot longer but the sound is poor (tiny speaker) and the aerial needs full extension to connect a lot of the time . . .fine if your not an audiophile listening to banging techno / Vivaldi

I have one of these too. Far better than more expensive ones I've owned. Charge is really good (as long as it doesn't turn its self on in your bag) and it gets good signal.
