LifeJacket 2 - Waterproof Bluetooth Speaker, Floating Portable Speaker for Travel & Outdoor Use, Deep Bass & Loud Sound, 30 Hour Playtime

I bought this for an bluetooth speaker and find myself taking advantage of the bike mount for my motorcycle, until I can get an actual sound system installed. The sound is okay and loud enough to where I can hear it well with ear plugs going 40-50 mph on my Vulcan. Above 50 mph, turn it off to save the battery, as this is advertised for motorcycles, the wind and engine easily overpower the speakers...w/o a helmet on it becomes harder to hear, at 60-70 mph, you can't hear them. But I don't do much highway or interstate driving so it works perfectly for the cruising I do. This is a good all around speaker, rode in a down pour speaker was just fine, it takes up a lot of space on the handle bar, but that is expected. Doesn't rattle loose and stays in place even on bumpy roads and higher speeds.

Amazing speaker. The bass is deep but not overpowering. Very little distortion maxing out the volume. The speaker can be very loud if you want to. I can have the volume at 60% on my phone and have it comfortably wash out every sound in my environment. The bluetooth range is also exceptional, I can walk a good distance away from it and not have it cut out, though I've never walked further than 20yds away from it. The battery life is ridiculous, I use it about 6 hours a day every day. I used it for 3 days straight without a recharge and it was still good to go. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I would not have bought this if I knew it turned on at full volume with a stupid audio message every time you power it on. The speaker sounds great but this is too annoying.

Happy that it’s waterproof and floats for the lake, the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired.

Long lasting charge and great sound.

I purchased the Altec Lansing LifeJacket 2 Bluetooth Speaker. The speaker comes with mounting hardware. The mount does not fit the speaker. That is because the mounting hardware is a standard 1/4 x 20 bolt that all speakers, cameras, etc., use. Unfortunately, the speaker has been equipped with a metric M8 x 1.0 threaded insert during the manufacturing process. This means the speaker is unmountable with the provided hardware, or any other common mounting options. The sound quality is good and the battery life is good. If those are the only things you are looking for in this speaker, you should be happy with this purchase.

I have mixed feelings on this because I love the speaker. I love the durability and the look, but ever since I connected it to my phone, which I paid hell to do because it insisted on telling me that I needed an app, the sound on my phones Bluetooth regardless of what device it is sounds muffled. And I have tried several different things to fix it. It seemed to work perfectly fine on my tablet. But the S22 Galaxy phone, not so much. Don't get me wrong, it works, I'm still gonna use it. It just irritates me a little bit. update: deleted the app and it connects fine now so I don't know what the issue was but it works perfectly fine now so all good

Came with a blown speaker and they say when sent to you to contact the manufacturer but don’t. They want you to fill out a form, state the issue and send it back to be replaced by them. Much easier to return it to Amazon instead. Other than that it’s a decent cheap speaker
