– Monty Radio Battery

I found that the battery wasn't charging and got in touch with the supplier. They responded the same day and sorted it immediately. It turned out that I'd been trying to charge if without having it in the standby mode. I felt a bit foolish, but they were very patient with me. Excellent after sales service. It's working fine now and I'm very pleased with it.

Does exactly what I expected. A most useful product

This battery is useful if you want to disconnect the radio from the mains to use elsewhere in the property or outside. It also enables to radio to work during a power cut. It charges automatically when the radio is plugged in again. But it is a quite expensive monopolised product, and with a different design it could have been made possible to use equally good but cheaper and universally available rechargeable batteries.

Well packaged, goods as described and delivered on time.

The first VQ Monty battery I bought at the same time as I bought the VQ Monty radio. It lasted nearly three years until July 2022 which seemed a reasonable length of time. I ordered a replacement battery straight away but this one died the death earlier this year 2023 so probably lasted for six months. I have not replaced it and the radio is now plugged permanently into the mains and so gets very little use. I won’t be purchasing another battery although I see that they have dropped in price simply because they seem to be unreliable. I should have mentioned that following the battery debacle and because I wanted a portable radio, I bought a VQ Dexter, a smaller radio which takes four re-chargeable AA batteries. It’s much smaller than the VQ Monty and lacks extra features but the sound is good and there are no problems with expensive and failing batteries.

Great product great service

As expected

I’ve bought these batteries before and they can be a bit hit and miss however this battery worked perfectly after an initial charge on standby mode. Very pleased with price and performance.

Sound quality, radio good , Bluetooth great. Need to buy rechargeable battery pack separate, doesn’t come with it. By chance I read in fine detail, if I hadn’t would be useless without it.

Parfait

Mycket bra radio men man bör veta att batteri inte ingår i köpet.

E ‘ una radio che possiede un Qualita’ musicale ottima

funktioniert lange... dumm nur, das beim Laden das Gerät im Standby sein muss
