Charged for 2 days and speaker will not turn on following the instructions. Very poor quality speaker for $199. Purchased at Navy Exchange, NAS Oceana, Virginia Beach, VA on 23 Oct 2020. Don't buy this product. Very poor quality speaker.
I enjoy music through all kinds of sound gear, some reaching levels of audiophile realm. *This Altec Lansing is lacking in a level of clarity that I would expect from the brand.. for the full retail price it's a bit disappointing if audio quality is your main concern. However for a tough speaker that goes about anywhere without much worry, the price is warranted. You're paying for the toughness and its ability to produce decibel levels... Maybe the secret lies in the equalizer app but the app has such poor rating on Google Play I would rather use a 3rd party eq.
*edit: I've had the speaker for several days now and it appears the sound needed some time to clean up. Not sure if it was the few recharges or maybe playing at a loud (without distorting) levels opened up the speaker from new. It's a bit more clear than fresh out the box and charged overnight. The bass bloat has subsided to the point of no longer intruding into the mids and the highs have cleaned up a bit. Again maybe the battery needed a few recharges or the speaker needed some play time to open up but the sound is considerably better. I would give it a 4.5 stars based on still being a pricey speaker
2nd edit: while the audio quality is the same as intial impressions, I have ran this speaker until it's drained. The battery is unmatched by many other BT speakers of this size.
I love this speaker. It is solid and heavy. The light features work great. The sound quality is exceptional even maxed out it doesn't detonate. The outer plastic housing and the rubber bumpers that surround it are very thick. It doesn't slide around on any surface. The phone pairing feature works great and the caller can hear you if you talk through your speaker hands free without yelling. I love this thing. I searched and tried out all the different brands at Wal-Mart amd watched all kinds of video reviews on YouTube for all the brands but kept coming back to the Altec Lansing brand. They build quality stuff. Oh and the battery on this new unit lasts all night and afternoon when I sleep in on Saturday s.. still running after I wake up. Great value for your money.
Bought this for a backyard speaker. Great sound, waterproof, and durable. And it has lights too. Battery seems to last forever. Can’t say anything I don’t like
Speaker is very very good but was not satisfied when this super jolt speaker was not able to handle max volume endure ment for a week before speakers started dying and distorting out. I would recomend altecs smaller speakers as they can endure max volume for years.
We now own 2 of these .one is permanently mounted to our side-by-side ,holds up on the trails in rain ,mud and dust. The 2nd one we take with us on other adventures including tubing down the river The 2nd one we take with us on other adventures including tubing down the river and camping.

I had the life jacket to start, got the super and the sound is louder but not by much. However the battery last much longer. Ran both linked for 2 days at work with no charging. The life jacket went dead today around noon. The super still had 60% battery left.
This charges my phone while using it with the blue tooth, allows you to speak thru it if you get a call hands free, and the sound is awesome, now worries when sitting next to the pool, it is water proof... It floats!
This speaker floats with speaker side up out of the water. Great volume and battery life. Only downfall is the charger port sealed door tab broke off within 4 months and now makes it hard to open once securely closed to not let in water and snow.
I have two very well used lifejacket speakers that have been on many isolated canoe trips, fire pit parties, and all around general use over 6-7 years. Figured it was time for an upgrade with the king of lifejackets.....however the old regular lifejackets sound more clean and can almost match the volume of the Super Lifejacket Jolt. Disappointed, I'm looking for something else now.
