Questions & Answers

What is the battery life of this device? Does it have a rechargeable battery? Would you prefer either? How does the adapter work? Does it allow you to re-charge? What is the best way to use batteries?

With this adapter, you'll be able to use an AC adapter- The radio does not have batteries that can be recharged. Despite using the radio about 30 minutes a day, the batteries last quite a while The radio plays 80-90 minutes a day for 40 minutes There are 90% of Bluetooth devices, the rest are not. D cells will continue to function for months if you use them like that. In my case, I switched to rechargeable AA Sanyo Eneloops with D spacers around the holidays. They last about four years The price is set at $6.50 for 6 weeks of service, so I think that is a reasonable option if you

The radio's antenna is for better reception of the radio, right?

There is a antenna there for sure. Rather, it's a plastic kind of telescope, not the traditional electronic kind It is a wire that is coiled up next to the battery compartment that can be unwound and hung out of the back (there is a special hole for that). Adding this to the system could improve reception if it wasn't good enough already.

What does the clock look like during a radio broadcast? Music is my favorite way to pass the time, but I also try not to spend too long in the shower! ?

Although it shows the time, the LCD contrast is disappointing regardless of whether the backlight is on. I know it's time to replace the battery when the screen on my digital watches or weather stations gets that dim. However, I just installed new batteries and the display indicates that the H202 is fully charged. This is unfortunate since it is otherwise an excellent radio.

What are the conditions for recharging the batteries? It would be nice to have a portable radio that can be used in the shower, with rechargeable batteries and AC/DC hookup options. ?

There are no rechargeable batteries in this radio, but the D batteries are very long lasting. Also, this unit can be hooked up to an AC/DC power supply. It is disconnected from the batteries when you plug it in. There is a sale for $9 on this AC adapter. The current number is 63!

Selected User Reviews For Sangean H202 Portable AM/FM/Weather Alert/ Bluetooth Digital Tuning Waterproof Shower Radio

Eating batteries is a fatal flaw in the firmware
3/5

There is a fatal flaw in the firmware that requires the radio to stay on even after timer usage. In addition to my daily use of the timer and the radio, I had to replace batteries every 2 weeks, and I was using the timer every day. A very faint hiss can be heard from the radio when you use the timer function and turn it off. The radio continues to play after the timer has been turned off. Initially, I did not notice this hiss until I put my ear very close to the speaker and turned it up to a very loud setting. The timer MUST be turned on for a few seconds after the timer is used, and then turned off again after it is completed. Turning off the radio this way is the only way to do it. Since doing this, I have only had to replace one set of batteries for more than a month. It is not a defective radio because I have two of these, both of which do the same thing.

I would say that this is a good but not excellent film
3/5

In comparison to the venerable Sony ICF-D200, this radio is twice its size and twice as heavy The audio in the shower is noticeably better on the 79S (audio quality is not crucial to me in the shower). But I did not find the new receiver sensitivity to be superior to the previous receiver (AM or FM) despite other reviewers' comments. It is important to have a sensitive receiver for a good All right, I'll move on A flashlight is one of the characteristics of the Sangean over the Sony. If you are shopping for a shower radio for the first time, this is a good choice. You will find it useful if you're seeking a replacement for you You can find 79S if you look.

This is the best show to listen to in the shower
5/5

Please see https//www. nbsp We are in love with this CLOCK RADIO in our shower! Today, I played music straight from my phone using it for the first time. On the sink, I was taking a shower and I was using my phone. This is an incredible sound! In the shower, I use it to keep track of the time as I listen to the radio! Radio and Bluetooth are great features, but it's the radio that is truly outstanding! It's a must-have for any music lover! In conjunction with this review, I am posting a video. There is no way to improve the quality of the picture. On my phone, I used a mobile phone, and the video appears great on the device but it is (The most important thing is the sound, and you can hear that in the video. So make sure your volume is on!.

You'll be making or breaking your radio experience by paying attention to the following details Here are a few In this review, I'm taking a look at the Sangean H2O1 radio
3/5

Here are a few things to consider, some of which relate to its water resistance and being designed to be used in the shower (thus, design features), yet they may have an impact on your experience with it. There is some truth and some opinion in what I have to say. You should note user's manual for this radio is available online in pdf, so if you plan to buy one, you should take time to read it first.

Weight (including D cell batteries) 2. 4 lbs. I weighed 2 pounds 12 ounces, which is 2 ounces. There is a headphone jack on the following devices The following technologies do not operate There are none. Taking care of This unit is retractable, and its antenna is situated at the back (rather than directly on top of the unit as with most radios) it is therefore front-heavy when carried or suspended from In the presets The AM identifier has 5, the FM1 identifier has 5, the FM2 identifier has 5. The settings can be changed with the push of a The WX program may also have presets, but up front there are only seven stations. * * Volume Pushing buttons is the only way to go up and down. The volume wheel or knob on radios will make you appreciate them more, both for ease of use as well as for more precise volume control (rather than overloading the volume buttons with clicks). Using WX Direct, you can access weather radio via a single button Unfortunately, no. It takes several times to scroll through the bands to get to WX, then you need to hit the button a second time to get back to the band you were listening to before. The Weather Alert is not in use so I do not know how The FM reception is not great I wouldn't call it great, but it's okay. When no wire antenna is deployed from the back, reception is fairly decent. When the wire is deployed from the back, the reception is a bit better but not quite as good as with a telescopic In fact, the wire is more of a nuisance than one might imagine since it hangs beneath the radio, making it easy to pull when The information in this document is not intended for resale Nonetheless, the radio might cause problems in the shower if it is parked there. You should note It gives five more tuning memory options, so FM has 10 tuning memory options. FM2 has the same band as FM, but with five extra tuning memory options. Reception in the AM A very good radio with a good ferrite bar antenna, but directional, and half a turn can be a lot to make a difference in reception (so test it first before mounting in a shower to determine the best position). Do SW AM FM radios perform as well as dedicated models? There is no. The SW reception is as follows Just in case you were wondering, there is not shortwave, television, CB, etc. reception. The following features are included in the nap One button can be set to play radio during naptime and then a buzzer will alert you an hour later when it is time to wake you from Easy to use feature for people who nap during the day, but must wake up at the proper time. Ineffective for those who don't nap. You are on the sleep it works well. It is very easy to use (see the online manual for details and timer options). The colors are This pair of colors is white Pink is a little more novel than white, because everyone has white. There are hours, minutes, and seconds in the time measurement. The station is displayed after the first few seconds when turning it on, even when you're listening to radio (even when you're turning it on). A fine tune The device can perform seeks and scans with the help of push buttons. It is not possible to turn the knob. Switches on DX Local are not available. First pressing the tuning button gives the radio the tuning mode, then pressing the tune button returns the radio to its default tuning mode, which is annoying. This will require you to hit a lot of tuning buttons. A bright light It stays on while you push the buttons, and then it turns off after a few seconds when you no longer press The light does not have a dedicated button to keep it on all the time. The following information applies to AC power The unit does not come with a power cord, which can be purchased directly from Sangean for twenty bucks or from third-party sellers for two thirds the price. Using power introduces interference when listening to all but the strongest signals, as well as making it non-waterproof. Under the rubber seal on the radio's AC connection is the AC power outlet. In a nutshell There are two D cells in the watch, and the battery indicators are always on the screen. It lasted a long time, but I don't know how long exactly it lasted. The speaker is The sound is small, clear, and of high quality. This is the front of the house. This product does not have any adjustable tone controls. Light a flash It's only a small LED and has a single button that turns it on and off, so I doubt I'd use

Waterproof quality You should test any new waterproof device during the Amazon return period (30 days). After drenching it thoroughly in the shower, I removed it from the shower. I did not have any issues with the clock, including the Particularly the battery compartment, the gaskets do an excellent job. There is no gasketing in the FM antenna storage area, unlike the battery compartment next to it, so it does get wet and hold water. After dabbing the radio in water (not submerging it), there were no issues. Fig. 1 Construction The only parts that rattle are those with rubber gaskets. Heavy duty plastic. Foot is made from rubber. * * Volume The sound is loud enough to hear close up or while showering, but not so loud that you will hear it. This is not the type of speaker that is most suitable for outdoors usage, such as around a pool or a work site. There aren't many waterproof radios out there these days, and if you must wet the radio in the bathtub, swimming pool, etc. , this is one of few options available to you. It is not recommended if you are planning to use it for general use including an emergency radio, weather radio, DXing radio, nighttime sleep radio, bedside radio, etc. It is not recommended if you plan to use it as an emergency or general use radio. My observations were meant to be helpful, so I hope you will find them useful.

The radio is fantastic, and of high quality
5/5

probably own a lot of things I don't use or need, things that I haven't really needed. In my opinion, this thing is great, and I may even get a second one For the first time, I have a Sangean radio, and I am impressed with this brand. My comments are The pros are This is *br1. The build quality is really good. There is quite a bit of weight to this device. It is larger than I expected. There is a thick layer of plastic surrounding this device and it appears Observation 2. The sound quality is excellent This is a well-written, full and detailed report This speaker is rounded for a single speaker in a moderate size. There is not a hint of tinniness. There is plenty of volume on my iPod while I am taking a shower, and the volume is on "20. " 1. 2. 3. The batteries used (2) are the large "D" cell batteries, which appear to be a bit odd initially It is quite a hassle to put them in, but they last a long time. The buttons are of the right size and feel good to the touch It is easy to use. This leaves 5. This device has a clear display that shows the current time (when off) and battery life left. This is 6. Cable antenna that can be extended My experience has been that it receives stations clearly without having to extend, but there may be other differences for you. The seventh point. The sink or tub rack has rubber feet so you can easily place it on a sink or tub, or you can hang it from a shower rod Those cons are This is *br1. It's easy to press the WX Alert button by accident, and then to circle back to your preset, you must press the WX Alert button a second time, press the Power button to turn the radio back on, and then press the Band button to return to your preset. On the front of the radio, both the WX button and Power button have the same size. Observation 2. It'd be nice if batteries could be recharged The only gripe is that it is a small one. A DC to AC power converter is impossible to find and it is extra expensive.
