With its ShockMount protective armor, the Ridgid radio will keep pumping out the tunes no matter what your Jobsite can throw at it and it will do it whether running on battery power or 110V.
The Ridgid R84087 radio will operate on any Ridgid 18 Volt lithium-ion battery.
Many users have remarked that the Generation 2 model is a much-improved radio over earlier versions of this offering from Ridgid.
Probably the most mentioned feature is how much better its radio reception is over previous models.
The fact that you can dock just about any iPod in a sealed compartment is another big plus. The iPod battery also charges when docked. You can even control the iPod from 25’ away by remote!
A cable is included to connect to any other brand of mp3/music player as well. When you pick up the radio it doesn’t feel or look like it could hold the weight of a vehicle or survive a fall from a height but as you can see from the video on the home page that this is one tough Jobsite radio.
The included remote will operate the radio tuner or the iPod from as far as 25’ away. It stores onboard or on a keychain in your pocket.
The integrated power cord wraps around the base so it won’t be forgotten or lost.
The antenna folds down and rotates to prevent accidental breakage.
Several reviewers were very pleased with how long the radio will operate on a single battery charge.
Like all the Jobsite radios it has nice big, easy to manipulate dials and buttons that are easy to use when wearing gloves.
Along with the digital tuner, it has a backlit screen, 15 radio pre-sets, a digital clock and a backup battery that keeps track of all your settings when the unit is turned off.
Perhaps best of all, the Ridgid radio carries the Ridgid tools lifetime warranty.
This means that they will repair or replace your radio, including the battery if it fails due to workmanship or material defects. Please note that like all Jobsite radios, a battery and battery charger is not included with your radio purchase.
This warranty is truly an outstanding feature. I know of no other tool company that offers such peace of mind protection, and to include batteries in the warranty is unheard of!
Chances are you will never need to take advantage of the warranty on the tools, but I can guarantee you that the batteries will eventually wear out.
To have them replaced for free makes this Ridgid radio a very worthy candidate if you need a job site radio, the beach, the boat, or anywhere else that you need a tough portable entertainment center!
