It moves easily from a bedside table to a bathroom shelf to a picnic blanket, and it suits anyone who wants digital radio without a mains lead following it around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe built-in lithium-ion battery runs for approximately 20 hours from a full charge and refills over USB-C in about six hours at 500 mA, using the lead in the box.

It gains a telescopic aerial for DAB and FM, which the original did not have, and it charges over USB-C instead of micro-USB, so it shares a cable with almost everything else in the house. It also adds a clock and alarm, which turns it into a bedside radio rather than a portable you carry to the bedroom. One thing goes: the 3.5 mm aux input is no longer fitted.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA day and night radio:\u003c\/strong\u003e The clock updates itself automatically from DAB or FM, so it is right after a power cut and right after the clocks change. The alarm can wake you to a specific preset station or a buzzer, and there is a snooze. At the other end of the day a sleep timer runs from 15 to 120 minutes, and display brightness is adjustable, which matters when the radio is sitting a metre from your face.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwenty hours away from a socket:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 2600 mAh lithium-ion cell inside the Petite 2 is rated at approximately 20 hours from a full charge, which is the difference between a radio you plan around and one you simply pick up. A full charge takes roughly six hours at 500 mA over the supplied USB-C lead, so an overnight top-up covers a week of use. Being USB-C, the same charger that handles your phone will do. There is no aux input, so anything not on DAB or FM arrives over Bluetooth.\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\u003eRevival Petite 2 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\u003eAway from mains\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 hour rechargeable battery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eA full charge covers around 20 hours, so the radio can live wherever you want it\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWaking up\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAlarm with preset selection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWake to a chosen DAB or FM preset, or a buzzer, with a snooze if you need it\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMusic from a phone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBluetooth 5.0 with AAC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStreams from a phone or tablet and keeps up to eight paired devices in memory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeak DAB indoors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTelescopic DAB and FM aerial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtending the aerial gives the tuner a fighting chance in back rooms and thick-walled houses\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSmall spaces\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e430 g, 124 mm wide\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight enough to move on a whim and small enough for a crowded bedside table\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\u003ePrivate listening through headphones, with a sleep timer from 15 to 120 minutes\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\u003eApproximately 20 hours from a full charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C charging with the lead included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDAB, DAB+ and FM RDS tuning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 presets retained through a power failure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth 5.0 with AAC and eight device memory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelescopic aerial for DAB and FM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e430 g, small enough for a bedside table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConsiderations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere is no aux input on the Petite 2, so wired sources cannot be connected; use Bluetooth instead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA full charge takes approximately six hours at 500 mA, so plan a top-up overnight rather than before you leave.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe battery is built in rather than a set of removable cells, and there is no internet radio, WiFi or streaming support.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevival Petite 2 radio x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C charging lead x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick start guide x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety and warranty leaflet x1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Roberts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54613013954887,"sku":"REV-PETITE2MB","price":119.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/5807\/1748\/files\/1--hero-sc3xOqk8.png?v=1786627197","url":"https:\/\/euronics.ie\/products\/roberts-revival-petite-2-dab-fm-bluetooth-radio-rev-petite2mb","provider":"Euronics Ireland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
