Replacement Rechargeable Battery Pack PURE Charge PAK A1 for PURE ONE Mi Radio

Pure products are undoubtedly great quality but it really annoys me that Pure generally don't supply the battery with their units or at least give the option to buy a unit/battery kit at a slightly discounted price. Anyway, they don't so to have a genuinely portable product you need to buy a charge pak and I believe this seller offers the cheapest available. Firstly, it arrived quickly and came in a jiffy bag and the battery itself was boxed (mine didn't come with any instructions but it doesn't really need any). I dropped it in the radio and the battery level meter indicated 3 bars of charge immediately and the radio fired up - a good start. I'd read that a couple of customers had had issues with their units not charging so I tried mine and all was well. After the charging had completed (not sure how long that took) I used the radio on battery only for a few days and noted how long the battery lasted until it was exhausted. So far it's lasted 11 hours. The battery level indicator has no bars left and is flashing to tell me it needs charging but the radio is still operating normally and has done in for at least 30 mins. I think I read somewhere that the original Pure charge pak lasts upto 18 hours. As its twice the price of this unit but doesn't last twice as long this works out to be good value. I'll keep an eye on how it performs long term and report any issue should they occur. So far though, very much recommended.

I wanted a portable radio for my bathroom - unfortunately the battery was not included with the product I bought a the shop hence I went on line to Amazon to buy. Battery does the job - rechargeable which is great news. Delivered promptly and as advised in the description

Does the job helps charge batteries

Although this battery is much cheaper than the branded version it is performing very well. As instructed I made sure that it was fully charged before I used my digital radio off the mains and the battery gave many hours of radio before needing a recharge - in fact it still had 2 bars up when I put it on charge again. I have another Pure brand digital radio which takes 4 AA batteries and they last far less hours, making it very costly to run when not plugged into the mains. Yes, this rechargeable pack is a very good purchase.

When purchasing the Pure PAK a1 radio I was unaware that a special shape battery was required. This radio does not work with a standard battery and this should be considered when deciding whether this radio is value for money when considereding purchase. Battery is rechargable and does what it says on the tin!!

Fitted this to radio very easily; it was already partially charged (3 bars), so I knew immediately it worked. Left it to charge for 18 hours and it seems to power the radio very satisfactorily. So far I've only used it for about an hour on battery, but it worked very well. Whether it will prove as durable (after repeated charging cycles) as an official 'Pure' battery, which is considerably more expensive even taking into account delivery is 'free' for it, only time will tell, but so far it seems pretty good and I am very satisfied.

Considerably cheaper than the branded item and seem to keep the radio going for many hours. Haven't had the battery for long yet, but then I could buy 2 of these for the price of the branded one! Worth a try, don't you think?

Silly me thinking I would save a few quid on this, charged it up, went to work, turned the radio on and it worked for about 30 seconds then turned off, display was still showing so opened up the back took it out and put it back in again (battery doesn't sit properly) played again for a few mins then goes off and comes back on again, thought what a load of rubbish, had to use my old radio, then it turns back on again wtf, so ordered the proper Pure one and works a treat, save your money by spending more on the proper one (if you know what I mean )
