Video Transcript for Furrion LIT Portable Speaker with Adventure Pack Review

Adam: Hi everyone, Adam with etrailer.com. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Furrion LIT Portable Bluetooth Adventure Pack. This is going to be a portable speaker that comes in two different colors. We have white and we have black. It has a bunch of different mounting hardware. It has one that's going to wrap around your handlebars on your bike.

We also have a strap that'll strap onto a little bit more places as well. It's going to be Bluetooth, so all you really need is your phone and some music to get the party started. So all we really need to do is turn on our speaker here, pull down the power, it'll say power on, and then we can go ahead and hold down our Bluetooth button here. Pairing. Adam: It's going to say pairing.

So now we can scroll all the way down and you're going to see Furrion LIT and you're going to click on that. Paired. Adam: And it's going to say paired. It's going to have an audible voice telling you that it's paired and it's going to say connected, and then you're pretty much ready to go. You can Mount it up wherever you want and get the tunes pumping.

So with our kit, we do get a rail mount here and I actually got a little creative and mounted it on the stem of our rear view mirror on our side by side here. And honestly I guess you guys are probably wondering if it is loud enough to over power the motor of the side by side. So let's find out. I'm all connected, I'm going to turn on some music. So this is maxed out and it's pretty loud.

I could only really hear the music. Let's see how loud it's going to be when we're driving around. So it's going to be a great way to get some music bumping in you're side by side whenever you're out on the farm, whether you're working or just out for play. All right, so we've got it mounted up on our bike here. I'm going to go ride around through the trails and see if this thing holds up.Well, honestly, here let me turn this down a little bit so you can hear me, honestly, I took it around a couple really bumpy areas in the trails and this thing is still in the same spot as when I mounted it for the first time. Really, really loud and honestly, it got my rhythm going and kept me in the mode so I can actually go around and ride a lot longer with all this music playing. It just gets me in the mood to ride. And the other cool thing is I do have a light here but always having a second light as well is always going to be a plus. It's actually pretty bright. Another cool thing about it is we can actually take this off pretty quickly. So a lot of the times when I'm riding in really cool trails, I find a really cool spot to basically just hop off and do a little walk, kind of catch my breath a little bit because I am a little out of breath after that ride.But basically you just twist this like so and it's actually going to slide out from our cables here, just like so. So if you really wanted to, you can go ahead and do it that way or you can actually just unscrew it and you can carry this with you. There is another strap that you can wrap around your wrist and it's going to hang on there like so. So just in case you drop it, you won't actually lose it. So to utilize our wrist strap, all we really need to do, we have a metal clamp here, you just pull that up. We're going to fish this through and then we're going to grab the rest of the strap and pull it through that loop. So it's going to be nice and secure there and it has a pretty nice pad on it as well.So all we really need to do at this point is basically just wrap this around our wrist. It's a hook and loop strap. And once we get it all the way wrapped around, we can either just let it dangle there or just hold it and we can listen to tunes while we're going through the woods as well. For those really emergency situations, whether you're walking through the woods and you find somebody who needs some help or if you crashed on your bike and you're in a little bit of a tough situation, we do have an SOS light, so what's going to happen is you're going to hold down this button. By doing that, it's going to shut off the Bluetooth. Disconnected. Adam: Just to conserve your battery and it's going to be an SOS light, so it's going to blink on and off every two seconds. Another thing, if you really need help, you press this play button here and it's going to send a really, really loud beep noise. You've got to hold it down. It's really, really loud and it's going to go intermittently on and off with our light here. I really don't think anybody's going to have any problems hearing you. You just hold it down to turn it off and you can hold down this button again, it's going to turn that light off and it's going to re-pair to your phone. Paired. Adam: It says paired, so now you're re-paired. So it's really, really easy for those where you might be a little bit hurt. You just got to press two buttons and then someone should probably be there pretty shortly. So as you can see here, sometimes when you find a cool spot, there's a little bit of water. Things might get a little wet. Sometimes when my dog Maura she shakes and some of my gear gets wet. But you don't have to worry about that because the Furrion LIT Bluetooth Speaker is water resistant, even if it starts raining a little bit if you're on a ride, you don't have to worry about that. And if for some reason that you don't have this wrist connected and it falls in the water, it is safe at about a meter for about 30 minutes. So honestly, I'm kind of curious to see if this thing's going to withstand water like they say. So we're going to test it out for you guys. I'm going to hold it for about 15 seconds.Check that out. It is going to drain a little bit of that water but she's still pumping out those tunes. So, it withstand the water test for me so I'm just going to wipe it off and just get back to just walking this creek. Come on Maura. So if you have two of these yourself or a friend has another one, we can actually enter into party mode and basically what that's going to be is we're going to connect to one of them, so this is going to be our main speaker. So I'm connected to this one and this one's on but all we have to do basically is hold down plus and play. So hold that down and there should be a tone. Okay, I heard a little beep and then we go to the other one, do the same thing. Paired. Adam: They're both paired and now we are in party mode. So both of them will be feeding off of one of your guys' phones playing some music. Alrighty, well it's a one man party today. I'm just out in the woods hanging out with my dogs. I got these both paired up and stereo mode and basically I can just go about my day jamming out. Hi. Hi. So this probably isn't what these straps we're intended for, it was just something I came up with, but I'm actually going to go ahead and strap these onto my side by side here, so we have dual speakers. So there actually is an integrated strap mount underneath our bar mount. What we're going to do is just slide this open like so and when we do that it's going to be able to pop out like that. It has a little slot between it and that's what we're going to use our strap for. Just going to throw this on like normal. Couple good twists.We're going to go ahead and take this and go through it. I'm going to set it up on our side by side here and we might actually have to either grab an extra set of hands or just wrap it around a bunch of different times just to make sure it's not going to go anywhere. And again, this probably isn't its intended purpose, but at the end of the day, whatever you guys want to do with it. They give you plenty of mounting hardware to put it in a number of different places. Let's drive that back. Now I'm going to do the same thing for the other side. So underneath our rubber cap here, we are going to have an ox input. We're going to have a USB output so you can actually charge your phone and it is going to be charged by a micro USB cable, which you do get a pretty short one in the package. It's only about maybe about a foot, but those micro USBs, I have a bunch of them at home and you can use those as well.One other thing that's nice, you can charge your phone if you're maybe at the beach or so, but if you're just listening to music out on the beach it is sand proof so you don't have to worry about sand getting in there and ruining your speakers and it will have a full charge about 15 hours of playing capacity. So here's the micro USB that it comes with, but it does not come with a little box but you probably have one at home, but just be mindful of that. So these speakers also have a wireless charging capability. Basically all it's going to do is connect to the bottom of your speaker, you just set it on the little charging dock and it's going to get it going.Of course, we're going to have to plug that charging dock into the wall, but we won't have any cords going to our speaker, so we thought of a couple of other applications that you could use. If you're camping, you can actually just go ahead and hang it inside your tent. You can use the light to kind of illuminate things, or you can just listen to some music. If you need a place to charge your phone, you can charge it there too. So if you're just trying to pass time in the tent, you can actually just use this as a light to basically illuminate your book if you're reading the book or just if it's pitch black, a light would not necessarily be the worst thing. So this is going to be great for your RV applications as well. It's going to be plenty loud to fill this whole entire RV up with very good quality sound. Something that I thought of, a lot of these TVs have aux outputs and we can actually utilize the aux input on the end. If we had a long enough cord, we can actually run this all the way back here.So basically you could be watching TV if someone's taking a nap or something, we don't want to be too loud. You can actually keep this thing right next to your ears just so you can watch TV without bugging anybody. And most RVs do have a USB charger or at least a hot 12 volt output. And if you had a car charger you can plug that in and charge your speaker as you go. So if it's a nice night out and we have a campfire or just hanging out outside of our RV, we are going to be able to bring it wherever we need. And the cool thing about bringing it outside, it's not just going to be you enjoying all the nice features of this speaker, throw something on, kind of set the mood and I'm actually probably just going to wrap it around our handle here. Just going to let it sit there and dangle, be out of the way and you can connect to it wirelessly and basically be able to enjoy all that good sounding music with you, your friends and family.Well, I got both my speakers on my side by side here. They're still paired and we're still in party mode, so I'm just going to go ahead and just close this video out with I would definitely recommend these two and having two of them is actually pretty, pretty cool. They can go on all sorts of different stuff and you saw me strap it around my leg and there's probably a lot more that you can do with them, so be sure to actually share that on our website just to show us how you guys use them. So I'm going to go ahead, play the song and head out. Thanks guys. I'm Adam with etrailer.com, have a great day.
