to not understand how to buy a bathroom radio

I had a bathroom radio. It was an ancient thing which lasted about a year on two AA batteries. It has died and now I want a new radio. I just have no idea what to buy! I have looked online and all the battery powered radios I can find last a few hours at most. Help!

We have a wireless waterproof speaker in the bathroom.

Just connect our phone to it

It's a charged by USB and lasts about 6 weeks

You could get a showerproof Bluetooth speaker with a hook or suckers and pay radio from your phone or Alexa.

Or get a Sonos Roam type speaker which you can talk to and ask it directly to play whatever you want.

DP does what Elizabeth Draper does, pops the speaker on the cupboard by the sink and runs tunes from his phone. Loudly, the git.

We have a wonderboom. Great little thing.

You need a rechargeable one. I have this and it lasts weeks on a charge here

(however it was £40 when I got it, not sure why it’s so much more)

I have a nice little Roberts unit (non-digital), lasts about 3-months on AA's.

We have this one: DAB/DAB Digital+ & FM Radio, Portable Mains and Battery Powered DAB Radios Rechargeable Digital Radio with USB Charging - White

Its rechargeable, I just pop it onto the multipurpose mini USB charger we have in our bedroom once a week or so.

(I don’t think it needs it once a week but it’s the routine I’m in as I do our electric toothbrush at the same time as no razor point in our bathroom!)
