Rechargeable Batteries and DAB RadiosRechargeable Batteries and DAB Radios
DAB Radio
DAB Radios are real battery eaters,especially the older ones.
We often get calls from customers who have bought a DAB radio that uses 6 x C Size or D Size alkaline batteries and are only getting something like 8 or 10 hours from a new set of Duracell Alkaline batteries.
This costs something like £9.00 each time they have to change the batteries for another set of Alkaline cells,let alone the environmental cost of throwing away all those batteries.
From a rechargeable front this can be a little tricky to solve if the DAB radio uses 6 C or D size batteries,as most chargers only cater for 4 cells at a time.
One solution is to use the Ansmann Energy 16 Battery Charger (as this can charge 6 C or D size batteries at a time) and a set of the Ansmann maxE 8500mAh D size (or Ansmann maxE 4500mAh C size) batteries. This would cost something like £150.00 – yes a lot of money,but only equivalent to having to buy 16 or 17 sets of Alkaline batteries. That’s just 160 hours of radio time if you only get 10 hours from a set of Alkaline batteries.
A cheaper alternative would be to use the Ansmann Powerline 5 Mobile (or even 2 of them to enable you to charge all 6 cells at the same time!) and a set of the CAMLINK 8000 mAh Ready-2-Go batteries. This would cost more like £65.00 –£85.00,that’s just 7 – 9 sets of alkaline batteries!
