Shower radio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A shower radio is a type of battery-powered radio that is waterproofed to allow it to be used in a bathroom or other wet environment. Some versions also include a CD player and/or a clock. Due to the requirements of the design, shower radios generally lack headphone jacks or AC adapter ports that could short out or electrocute the user. They also tend to lack external antennas for the same reason.

There are varying designs; some are meant to be hung from a pipe or shower rod, while others can be stuck using a suction cup or something similar to the wall of the shower facility.

Shower radios are often of poor quality, relying on their ability to be used in the shower as their main selling point.
