Customer Reviews

Essential item for Pure DAB radio
The battery really should be sold as part of the radio as use without it is severly limited. My wife wanted a good radio for the bathroom and it wouldn't have suited her needs without the Charge pack. The pack charges quickly though and has lasted well. Worth the cost

Pure ChargePak-Fiddly
Excellent product which makes the radio truly portable without the need for batteries.
However, it is a bit fiddly to fit due to the compact nature of the radio and the position of the small contact socket. You need to make sure that the contacts are pushed in well, otherwise the Pak will fail to charge properly.

Pure ChargePAK B1
At first sight this rechargeable battery seems expensive, but it has a high capacity at 4200mAh and is Lithium ion rather than NiMH. Therefore it lasts a long time in a DAB radio, and will certainly prove cheaper than alkaline batteries in the long run
