Thats what my email said and i get a knock on the door today!
Perfect!
What did you go for @Shivam_Shah?

Went for lightening because I can use it in car or give it to my sister for when college campus starts back. No USB C devices here :smile:

Cool, your sister will appreciate that :+1:t2:
Glad you mentioned the car, i can use this to charge my PowerConf which gets used a lot in the car as Charlie connects his tablet to it.

I guess that’s another use for PowerConf lol. Sounds nice considering it’s not bulky as Flare speakers but probably sounds good enough

Yeah it works fine.
Being thin it sits nicely in the pocket on the seat protector, right under his tablet and the speakers/top of the unit faces him.
Best of all it means we get to listen to music through the car speakers instead of whatever Charlies watching.
So everyone’s a winner :+1:t2:

Doesn’t it start conflicting though?

I have a type of problem could do with a better speaker.

I am biking and I keep my phone inside my bag incase of an accident it’s not broken, but I’m following Google Maps navigation. I can see the navigation on my smartwatch.

I’d like a speaker on the handlebars.

I have the Icon Mini with the single loop it came with, but it couldn’t hold the Icon and it fell to the ground. Dent.

I’d like a speaker with two grommets so I can tie it better.

In what way @Shivam_Shah?

Sound from Powerconf competes with sound from car entertainment speakers. I think @Shivam_Shah meant.

Yeah good idea, would also be handy for generally suspending it from things - keeping it pointing in the right direction.
For now how about using the cord (may need to replace it with longer paracord) to loop around the top/handle of a back pack?
Its safe and out of harms way and close so you can hear it.

Like this as an example using a mini torch.

Or maybe even from a spare carabiner for easier removal.

I see.
@Shivam_Shah it seems to be fine.
Because the PowerConf is directed toward him it seems to keep the sound in the back and we change the balance of the car to the front.
Kinda like dual zone climate but for sound :+1:t2:

Backpacks hurt your back if you fall off.

Backpacks make you sweatier.

Speaker bangs wrattles with one loop.

Take such one, but be careful when biking and reading ANKER forumner’s comments! :rofl:

For over 5 years I’ve had a smartwatch, I glance at its screen for emails, maps, etc.

Three of your favourite things in one photo.

That’s an incredibly difficult photo to take, screen dims in seconds and focus on the watch.

Definitely @professor but a short term solution maybe!

Sweaty back, not with this bag.
Hurt if you fall, definitely i know that from experience.
How did i fall?
On any of the thousands of miles I’ve cycled? No!
On any of the hundreds of miles we’ve walked and trekked? No!
Falling out the front door when leaving the house :man_facepalming:t2:

Main reason was this bag has a stiff sprung plastic board in the back to keep the mesh parts only on your back.
As i fell that caught on a short fence post and swung me around.
Had it been a normal bag, and how much i weighed at the time, it probably would have just ripped and my landing would have been more controlled.

This has been my day bag for probably 10 years and is almost as good as new.

Practically a perfect photo :grin:
What brand/model is the watch @professor?

PS water the grass.
