Most useful addition
The backpack is very easy to attach thereby increasing the versatility of my R1S and making it even more user friendly. I would thoroughly recommend such a useful addition.

Ruark R1 4 Bluetooth Dab Fm radio/speaker
I bought this as a Christmas present. Excellent piece of kit. We lined up all the DAB radios in the shop and listened to them all. The sound quality is superb and the build quality seems good. We have yet to try the FM radio but I’m sure it’s as good as the DAB and Bluetooth.
We also bought the battery pack which we have yet to use.

More than a boring battery, R1S game changer!
Great accessory. I want my new R1S everywhere, and this is the solution. No more re-boots between sockets. Just perfect portability. It’ll be outside in summer too.

Battery Pack
The battery pack attaches easily and makes the unit usable anywhere. However, after several full charges followed by full depletion of the battery it doesn't last for 12 hours as stated. Also, the socket for the charge cable is at the bottom of the battery unit so when the cable plug is inserted into the socket the cable is forcibly bent by being too close to the surface the unit is standing on. In time this will no doubt break the wires inside the cable. An 'L' shaped plug or the socket on the side of the battery unit would be a better design.

Picnics with your Ruark
The battery backpack attaches easily to the back of my Ruark radio and can be charged while attached. I have used a powerbank with USB connector to charge the backpack, using a converter to bump up the wattage - something I wouldn't risk with the radio itself. You get 12 hours clear of portable play from 4 or 5 hours charge. This means I can use greener solar power to run the radio. Hooray.
