Roberts introduce the next generation solarDAB radio. This stylish and compact DAB/FM portable radio has a solar panel integrated into the top of the unit which absorbs direct sunlight in order to power the radio. There is a level indicator on the display screen that shows the power level generated by the solar panel. Under good conditions, there is sufficient power generated to charge the batteries and power the radio. The built in rechargeable battery pack is charged whenever the solar panel receives direct sunlight. Once fully charged, the low power consumption of solarDAB allows the batteries to power the radio for up to 27 hours without the need to recharge them. The radio can then be used away from sunlight or mains electricity until recharging becomes necessary.

I bought this DAB solar radio for my husband's birthday primarily to take on family camping holidays but it's proved much more useful than that!!
Since being fully charged it's given my husband many hours of listening pleasure whilst being up his ladder painting the hallway, stairs and landing and listening to the World cup on Talk Sport or 5 Live. We get an excellent reception in our area (which we don't on the FM channels), so I'm just hoping the same can be said while we're away camping with the nippers!
He's now very enthusiastic about doing his DIY jobs, so altogether I think it was an environmental break through on so many levels. No expensive and corrosive batteries to repeatedly buy and dispose of plus peace and tranquility while my house is being transformed into the palace I so obviously deserve :-D
Blissfully relaxed of Cardiff xx

I bought the radio for camping, gardening etc.
The sound quality is good, its small enough to be portable and the Aux-in is an additional bonus.
Battery life is very good but less so if you turn the volume up high. I managed 3 days without it running out when on a boating weekend. I'd recommend that you take spare batteries just in case it does run out.
My only niggle was that the power-on button is very pronounced so that it will switch on when in my bag. However, I've now discovered that there is a space in the battery compartment so that you can take a battery out and store it to prevent accidental switching on.
Overall, a brilliant little radio that now goes everywhere with me. BBC6 Music whilst camping and gardening - Heaven!!

Almost bought the 'old' model at the same price until I read reviews, the new version is great and appears to have incorporated all the points raised by reviewers of the original model.
Overall quality is excellent, it is simple to use, sounds great and provides almost complete flexibility as regards power supply. Battery life is exceptional, even on cloudy days or indoors when the solar panel cannot operate to full potential.
This is a replacement for our existing 'portable' DAB radio which lasts an average of six hours using six 'D' batteries.
You may think the price is a bit steep, but I am going to save a small fortune in batteries alone.

Being a owner of a a wind up DAB radio I was excited to see roberts release a solar radio as its a lot less tiring on the arm whilst still being good for mother earth! Its good to see they have released the solarDAB 2 with an FM option as that was one thing that put me off buying their original model was the lack of FM.
As you would expect from a roberts the build quality is excellent (you can see why the queen likes them!) and the sound quality is top notch (nice and rich, although no tone control). There is even a small recessed carry handle in the back which a reviewer flagged up as a dissapointing omission from the first solarDAB.
Overall this is a very impressive great value update of the first solarDAB and comes highly recommended.
feel the power!
