Outdoor Tech OT1800 Turtle Shell 2.0 – Rugged Water-Resistant Wireless Bluetooth Hi-Fi Speaker (Black)
Description
Welcome to total sonic freedom – We wouldn’t say something
as cliche as “The best just got better”… it did though. Based off the
popular original Turtle Shell, the 2.0 brings more volume, more Hi-Fi audio,
more battery life and a plethora of other feature improvements over its
predecessor. Most speakers look like a shoe box with pin holes in it. Outdoor
Tech’s design focused team wouldn’t allow anything of the sort and instead
created the patented signature trianglethemed construction providing
omnidirectional room filling audio, a design aesthetic appropriate for
architectural digest and construction built for the Appalachian trail. Its
heavily water-resistant, dust-proof and shock-proof outer shell is probably
tougher than you are. and its built-in microphone functionality means you’ll
be double-fisting Dr. Peppers and having hands-free conference calls before
you know it. More water resistant than most, with the premium level audio
goods, the Turtle Shell 2.0 allows you to share your music wherever your
training wheels will take you. without the insane price tag. From the
Manufacturer Full Audio Experience… Fully Wireless Using the latest
Bluetooth 4.0 technology, the Turtle Shell 2.0 wirelessly connects with your
smartphone, tablet, laptop, or any other Bluetooth-enabled device. It streams
crystal clear audio for a range of up to 32 feet for 16 hours on a single
battery charge. That means you have to be within thirty-two feet of the party
and the party has to last 16 hours or less. We know, the latter is a little
tough, but you have to go to class at some point, Turbo. It’s a bummer when
your Bluetooth device communicates only with ‘bleeps’ and ‘bloops’. What is
this. 1976? This Turtle Shell has a voice and she isn’t afraid to use it to
give you helpful information like when the speaker is pairing, connected or
powering off. She has a nice voice, but don’t go getting that “connected’’
with her. She is a speaker, and just wants to be friends. Portable, Rugged,
Dustproof, Shockproof, aud Highly Water-Resistant Designed and built with the
hard core outdoors person in mind, the Turtle Shell 2.0 is smaller and lighter
than most, and comes equipped with the features necessary to keep the music
playing wherever your road may lead. Drop it, play hot potato with it, skip
down your favorite dusty country path with it, you name it; the Turtle Shell
will handle it all with its rubber-coated shell keeping out the dust and
absorbing substantial impacts. Its IP65 water-resistance rating means it will
withstand any amount of water short of submersion, so the occasional heavy
rain shower or splash of water will do no harm. It just can’t replace your
favorite battleship bubble bath toy… but we all know you’re too old for that
anyway. Your shower on the other hand is fair game. Built-in Call/Speakerphone
Functionality Have your next conference call on the best-looking Bluetooth
speaker out there. Make and receive handsfree calls from anywhere, any time.
Mario Cart and multi-person calls about how to still obtain burritos should a
natural disaster occur just became part of yoiu repertoire. Go ahead and put
multi-tasking on your resume, you deserve it. Bigger Bass, Impressive Mids,
