Altec Lansing HydraJolt Speaker

I was online looking at Altec spkrs, looking at the new HydraJolt 2.0 speakers and that's what I thought was highly reduced price. Turns out they were clearing out old stock. Good speakers for $25, but not what I expected

The previous model with 32 hrs. is better.

This little hydrajolt speaker is awesome! It's lightweight, but very sturdy and durable. It's the perfect size to take kayaking and the built-in carabiner clip rocks. I can easily secure the speaker to my kayak with it, so I no longer have to worry about losing it. Even if it does fall out or my kayak flips over, there's no reason to fret because it's IP67 waterproof. I can attest that it truly is because I forgot to attach it to the kayak and I accidentally knocked it out. I freaked, but thank goodness it floats! What a lifesaver! I'm thrilled with the high quality sound that you get out of this compact little unit. It's crystal clear and the volume goes high enough that it can be heard from quite a ways away. It's got good range and keeps a good connection to my phone. The light function adds a little extra to the unit. There are 11 LED light modes that can change with the music. The battery life is fantastic. We can be out on the water all day without worrying about it dying. All of that stuff is really great, but my favorite thing is that it can be used as a powerbank to charge your phone. You don't know how many times that has saved my behind. I'm the worst about going out in the kayak and forgetting to fully charge my phone first. 😳😬 I'm impressed with the sturdiness, design, sound and functionality that this speaker overs. It's well worth buying.

It’s a ok speaker. Not very loud and extremely poor battery life. A full charge only last 3-4 hours.

I bought this as a cheaper alternative to my older Bose Mini Bluetooth speaker. The price is good and I like the "all weather" aspect of it. Sounds pretty good at low to medium volumes. At higher volume, the sound start getting fuzzy or splattering as if the speaker is already blown out. I turned it down and it is fine. Just not as full sounding as the Bose.
