It suits anyone who wants digital radio in the shed, the garden or a holiday cottage without dragging a mains lead along.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe battery is built in and rechargeable, giving up to twelve hours from a full charge, and it tops up over USB-C using the cable in the box. That keeps charging simple, with one cable and no separate power adaptor to find room for. Bluetooth 5.0 handles streaming when you would rather play something of your own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTwelve hours of battery, 460 g in the hand and USB-C charging: the Mini is built around being carried, not around sitting on a shelf.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGarden and shed:\u003c\/strong\u003e Light enough to carry out with a mug of tea and back in again, with up to twelve hours of battery so it never needs a socket outdoors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel and holidays:\u003c\/strong\u003e At 460 g it packs without argument, and charging happens over the supplied USB-C cable rather than a bulky mains adaptor, so there is one less thing to pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecond radio:\u003c\/strong\u003e A useful extra set for a bedroom, workshop or spare room, with 20 presets, a clock on the LCD and Bluetooth 5.0 for a phone nearby.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUp to 12 hours:\u003c\/strong\u003e The built-in lithium battery runs for up to twelve hours from a full charge, which covers a long day in the garden or a weekend away.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e460 g in total:\u003c\/strong\u003e Small enough at 180 x 110 x 58 mm to sit on a shelf or a windowsill, and light enough that the carry handle is genuinely useful.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSB-C charging:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charging is over USB-C with the cable supplied, so there is no mains adaptor to carry, store or replace when it eventually goes missing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDAB, DAB+ and FM:\u003c\/strong\u003e Digital and analogue bands are both covered, with a telescopic aerial serving both and 20 presets split ten to DAB and ten to FM.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth 5.0:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair a phone and the Mini becomes a portable speaker for podcasts and playlists; it also drops into standby on its own when Bluetooth playback stops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass AB amplifier:\u003c\/strong\u003e A Class AB amplifier into a 4 ohm mono speaker gives a rated sound pressure level of 92 dB, which is more than enough for a room or a patio.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwelve hours away from a socket:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Rambler Mini charges rather than takes batteries, which changes how it gets used. A full charge gives up to twelve hours of listening, so a day in the garden, an afternoon in the workshop or a long journey does not need planning around power. When it does run down, the supplied USB-C cable is all you need. There is no mains adaptor in the box and none is required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDigital and analogue in one:\u003c\/strong\u003e DAB and DAB+ carry the national digital multiplexes; FM stays useful for local stations and for places where digital reception is patchy. The Mini covers both, tuning 174.928 to 239.200 MHz on DAB and 87.5 to 108 MHz on FM through a telescopic aerial. Twenty presets, ten per band, hold the stations you return to, and the LCD shows a clock when you are not looking at anything else.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you give up for the size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Making a radio this small means choices, and Roberts has been straightforward about them. There is no aux input, so a wired source cannot be plugged in; Bluetooth 5.0 covers streaming instead, and a 3.5 mm headphone output is there for private listening. There is no mains adaptor either, because the Mini is designed to run from its own battery and charge over USB-C. The speaker is mono rather than a stereo pair. In exchange you get 460 g, a carry handle and up to twelve hours of playback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Compares\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eListening Need\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRambler Mini Technology\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePractical Benefit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eListening outdoors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBuilt-in rechargeable battery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to twelve hours per charge, so a full day in the garden needs no socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePacking light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e460 g, 180 mm wide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmall and light enough to go in a bag without displacing anything else you need\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKeeping it charged\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB-C cable included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCharges from a standard USB-C lead, supplied in the box, with no mains adaptor to carry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLocal and national\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDAB, DAB+ and FM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDigital multiplexes and analogue local stations both tune in, with 20 presets split evenly between the bands\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlaying your own music\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBluetooth 5.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA paired phone streams podcasts and playlists through the Mini's speaker, with auto standby when playback stops\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLate-night listening\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 mm headphone output\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlug in headphones to keep the radio to yourself without disturbing anyone in the next room\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStrengths\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in rechargeable battery, up to 12 hours per charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C charging with the cable included in the box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDAB, DAB+ and FM with 20 station presets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth 5.0 for streaming from a phone or tablet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e460 g with a carry handle for easy portability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass AB amplifier rated at 92 dB sound pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLCD with clock and automatic standby in Bluetooth mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConsiderations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere is no aux input, so wired sources cannot be connected; streaming is over Bluetooth 5.0 or you use the radio itself.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo mains adaptor is supplied: the Rambler Mini charges over USB-C using the cable in the box, and runs from its battery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe speaker is mono, so Bluetooth music plays through a single channel rather than as a stereo pair.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRambler Mini radio x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C charging cable x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick start guide x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty documentation x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Roberts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54613019427143,"sku":"RAMBLERBTMLG","price":119.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/5807\/1748\/files\/Rambler-Mini-Text-with-Image-LG-1920x1200.jpg?v=1786627255","url":"https:\/\/euronics.ie\/products\/roberts-rambler-mini-dab-fm-bluetooth-radio-leaf-green-ramblerbtmlg","provider":"Euronics Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
