The power to rock your world. Whoa—with 100 watts of peak power on tap, a special bass boost feature that really kicks up the low end and a powerful 8-inch woofer and 3-inch tweeter for clear, lifelike sound, Explorer Outback 2 is no soft-spoken wallflower. Stand back and be heard. Let’s take this outside. No sweat—Explorer Outback 2 is iPX5 water-resistant, so it’s safe to leave in the rain. No more, “Oops, forgot to bring in the speaker” when the downpour hits. And with its 100-ft Bluetooth range, you can really roam around and still hear the music. This is one speaker that doesn’t back down from an outdoors challenge. Everything’s included. Isn’t that nice. 100-hour rechargeable battery. Deep cupholders. Microphone with cable. AM/FM radio. Telescoping handle, built-in wheels and side handles. Multi-color light bar. USB charging ports. Even a built-in bottle opener. Aux input for non-Bluetooth device. If Explorer Outback 2 doesn’t have it, you don’t need it.

Perfect for parties, camping, and outdoor use!
This speaker is so amazing!! We have used it several times for camping trips and it's extremely durable. We don't have to stress about it getting dirty or wet. It's easy to haul around with the wheels, and the cup holders! Also love the built in bottle opener! What really amazed me about this speaker was the battery life! We took it on a camping trip and had it playing all day/night, for 2 days and we never even had to charge it! I also plugged my iPhone into the usb port and it gave my phone a full charge. It's extremely convenient since we don't always have electricity while camping and now I don't have to worry about my phone dying while playing music. I was also impressed with how loud this speaker is! We barely had the volume up half way and this thing was blasting to our whole camp. I highly recommend this speaker!

If you want a good back yard speaker....this is the one!
I looked EVERYWHERE for a decent outdoor speaker. All the bluetooth options at Best Buy were both underwhelming and overpriced. We bought a Sony 'party' speaker which couldn't handle more than about 3 hours of continuous play and needed to rest for 2-3 hours before we could use it again....Not the Ion Explorer Outback 2! This thing is a beast!Great sound, easy connectivity, and a long LONG battery life...plus, cup holders and a bottle opener! What more do you want? Add your favorite streaming service (Pandora, Spotify etc..) and you've got your own back yard party DJ. We also have a pool, so being waterproof was a bonus, mostly because of our dogs who shake off water and get this thing wet!We LOVE it!!!

Amazing
I've had this for about a year, this thing is AWESOME. Perfect for all your outdoor adventures or working outside. The only reason why I gave it 4 stars is the battery indicator. Mine says it has half battery left and dies after about an hour. The battery life is excellent but it would be nice to have a more accurate battery indicator. Sound quality is excellent.

This is a fantasic bargain for around $150!
I got this product to listen to music while at work. I needed something loud because I have a manufacturing job and their is a lot of ambient noise plus you have to wear PPE (ear plugs etc). The sound literally drowns out the noise and I can hear it comfortably with ear plugs in. It terms of quality another coworker has the Monster Rockin Roller 4 and with quality of sound and strength of sound it doesn’t compare. Not to mention the build quality is amazing! It feels heavy in the sense of a well made product but is still decent to carry around. It can be weird to carry at times but the wheel/handle make up for it. If I had to choose probably perfer cupholders now instead of a hande across the top. One other thing, bass boost OMG so good! Bass boost + dubstep pandora station = awesomeness! Hope this review helped! I’ll probably end up getting a second one haha

Loud, awesome, lightweight
I'm a travel ball softball coach and I absolutely love this speaker. It very loud, I usually only had it turned up halfway. I charged it one time and it lasted through the entire season on one charge. I still haven't had to charge it and I've had it for quite a few months. I used it at our practices and at our tournaments, I would say it definitely has 30hrs of battery life and probably more.I'm very pleased with this and would highly recommend purchasing this, especially for all of the travel ball coaches and parents.

Love!
This speaker is incredible. I originally bought it for an outdoor movie night and it worked perfectly. I was able to use the USB plug to power my Chromecast and divert the sound to this speaker via aux in (utilizing an a/v splitter). The clarity and volume was exactly what I was looking for. I've also used this at a rec kickball game for music and announcements. The microphone isn't great but works. If you're talking over music, you'll need to play with microphone and music volume levels. I haven't had to recharge it yet, so battery life seems good.

Great.....when it works! Don't recommend.
Bought this for my sons Christmas gift that he received in December 2018. Prior to Christmas the box was never opened. He has absolutely loved this speaker. When working, the sound quality is great! However, after only 5 months of use, it will not charge. I ordered a new charger for it, still nothing. For the price, one would expect it to last much longer than 5 months. I have contacted the seller awaiting a reply. Once I hear from them, I will update and hopefully be given the opportunity to leave a more positive review. Fingers crossed they make this right.
