Know before you buy
Yes, the Gen 3 carries an IP67 rating, meaning it is fully waterproof and submersible. It is also designed to be buoyant, so it will float if it accidentally ends up in the water.
The Gen 3 is capable of reaching 120 decibels, which is significantly louder than most portable Bluetooth speakers. It is designed to maintain high-fidelity sound even in large, open outdoor environments.
Yes, you can use 'Party Mode' to pair an unlimited number of Turtlebox speakers together for a larger soundstage. You can also pair two Gen 3 units specifically for a dedicated left-right true stereo experience.
Yes, the Gen 3 features a USB-C output port that allows you to use the speaker's internal 85Wh battery to charge your mobile devices on the go.
The Bluetooth connectivity range is up to 100 feet. This allows you to keep your phone in your pocket or at a base camp while the speaker is positioned elsewhere.
The Gen 3 weighs 10 pounds. While it is built for durability and power, it is substantial enough that you will want to use the integrated handle for transport rather than carrying it in a backpack.
