Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ruark R1 Mk4 backpack 3 I bought the Ruark R1 Mk4 for Christmas, it has terrific sound, a great radio. The addition of a battery pack to give total manoeuvrability was a superb purchase, it does take 5 hours to charge from empty but it will power the radio for around 12 hours. So pleased with this purchase.
