JBL Charge 5 - Portable Waterproof Speaker with Powerbank - Teal

Honestly I just needed something loud enough to be heard over the sound of my freightliner roaring at me 11 hours a day. I mostly used my various speakers to listen to podcasts and audiobooks until now. I had the JBL Flip for years but it finally kicked the bucket, and I had the little JBL clippy gimmick I bought as a spare(it wasnt lound enough to easily hear my audiobooks so it sits in a drawer at home). I decided just to go big or go home. This thing is LOUD loud, with excellent noise quality. I actually enjoy listening to music again. The only negative, if you can call it that, is that the battery is drastically reduced if you use the speaker to its full audio capacity. When I listen to my audiobooks at mid volume I get almost the complete advertised runtime, but if I play high-volume bass-thumping jams I only get like 6 hours maybe. Not really a problem for me, but its worth mentioning. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase.
