It doesn’t feel like community exclusive when outside of this community you can see bigger discount codes

e.g from 4 days ago

So come to this community and pay $40, don’t come to this community and pay $30

I know and if you pause and think its also somewhat contrived.

Camping
Right is if you’re camping, is that car camping or backpack camping? If you’re backpack camping then you’re counting ozs and cubic inches, the Powercore II 20000 is not the best in this regard, the Powercore 10000 is best on weight and size when also considering price. If you were off-grid then carrying two Powercore 10000 is going to be more reliable than one Powercore II 20000.

Hiking
So the downsides of earbuds is you are more disconnected from the outside world, if anyone was to be attempting to walk past you then you risk not hearing them. A Soundcore Nano would be more likely a safer option for hiking.

Swimming
Mention of swimming and yet the product is a big speaker you could not actually use when swimming. It is not waterproof. Useful would be a waterproof pouch to keep your mobile dry with you when swimming.

Road trip
In all the other photos you show lots of people, so would not the Powerdrive 5 so to give 5 lots of 2A to leave the car with lots of charged devices be better? The Turbo mentioned makes a corner case best sense when you have SHORT times in a car and need a fast recharge. By definition a road trip is a long time on the road, so more ports is more appropriate than a rapid recharge powerpack.

Nice product recommendations, @nigelhealy! But, regarding “Swimming”, isn’t the SoundCore Sport IPX7 Waterproof?

IPX7 is upto 1 meter.

So e.g. if you took it with you in a swimming pool which you’re able to dive into would be likely 2M deep so if it went below 1M it would have double the water pressure it is rated for.

So really that’s rain, accidental dropping into shallow water, not swimming, because swimmers usually want at least 5ft of clearance > 1 meter.

It would have to be IPX8 for swimming with

Thanks for the info on the water-resistance rating! I don’t think I’d be keen to take a speaker into the water with me, though… Maybe if I wanted set it on a float in the middle of the pool or something, then IPX8 would be necessary. Keeping it near the water, rather than in it, sounds like IPX7 is more than enough

Seems like you post a lot of cool info. What blogs do you normally read to keep up with all of this?

So that’s not swimming, that’s being in a pool.
