good radio dave if you use it to charge batts ,but the best sounding radio by far is the makiter and its lots cheaper

I have the old Dewalt but have to agree its not that good, great for charging batteries and plugging MP3 player in.

I've got the Makita one - tremendous and I can hook my Ipod up to it

The builder I've been working for last week has a couple of those DeWalt ones on the job - too big for my liking But everybody to their own:smilewinkgrin:

I seem to recall the Gadget Show tested tough radio's on one of the series a couple of years back. their test results might still be available on their website, so I'll go and have a look.

rugged radio's were tested in this show... can't find any reviews for the others that were tested tho.

I've got a £5 special, its along the same line as those £5 kettles, but sounds ok and I dont have to really care about it breaking.
