<p dir="auto">I am not sure if there’s a better community to posting this in.</p>
<p dir="auto">Looking for a portable speaker kinda like the JBL Bluetooth speakers that are everywhere. Except it needs to have an aux in because I am an incorrigible dinosaur. Bonus if it’s water resistant. Please and thanks xoxo</p>

<p dir="auto">Two speaker/flashlights for $25, bluetooth, claimed lumens and runtime suggests there are two 18650’s inside each one.  Quick search for reviews indicates they have USB-C in and USB-A out (you can use them as power banks), they look fairly solid, but that the speaker volume is not all that high.  I’m gonna resist though.</p>
<p dir="auto">Meh had some quite nice ones a few years back that I still sort of regret not getting but it would have just been more crap around the house.  Edit: found them:</p>

<p dir="auto">The large ones (original Zipp) without Alexa seemed very decent though the micro USB charge port is ugh these days.  I saw a teardown indicating four 18650 inside.  People said the audio was good.  I see them on fleabay now for $100+.  IDR what Meh was selling them for but it was definitely less.  They are indoor speakers though, not waterproof or anything like that.</p>

Water resistant, line in plus Bluetooth, has a handsfree button (triggers Siri on iPhones) and volume up/down, plus a bass boost mode that uses more power.</p>
<p dir="auto">It doesn’t drive as much sound as my portable guitar amp, but for a battery based speaker, does pretty well.  If you buy two of them, they’ll figure out how to work together to provide surround sound, otherwise a single one will play stereo audio to fill the area.</p>
<p dir="auto">Had it for around 6 years and it still holds a charge like the day I bought it (I usually need to charge it every couple of months).</p>
