Hi Chip,
I personally decided to try the WooPower speaker due to my hearing loss. My hearing aids are bluetooth compatable.Unfortunately, I could be crossing a street when new information is being spoken. When info is being updated, a significant amount of environmental sound is blocked out. The WooPower has enough volume boost that I can hear it much better than my phone when walking. Wearing the speaker on my wrist also means one less thing to coordinate--guide dog, support cane, and treat pouch.

Hi Kevin, I don’t think I quite understand the usefulness of this speaker; why did you get it for “gps use”? How does that help, and why would you prefer it to a bluetooth headset? Thanks, Chip From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kevin Minor Sent: Sunday, September 25, 2016 6:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: What I've discovered so far regarding how long the Woopower blue tooth speaker's battery lasts. Hi. If you look at the guide for the Woopower blue tooth wrist speaker, it says the battery life of the speaker is 48 hours of standby time. I wondered how long this would be with the battery being used for constant sound, so I put it through its paces. I started listening to an FM station at about 11:15 in the morning. I listened to the pitiful Bungles game against the Broncos, and that ended at about 4:15 in the afternoon. I then switched to listening to the Reds game on blue tooth, and that lasted about another half hour. I then switched to the Padres game, and the battery finally gave up the ghost at about 5:15 in the afternoon. This means that the battery gives about 6 hours of use. I don’t know if it would be much shorter with blue tooth, since I used it in radio mode most of the time. In any case, six hours of use isn’t bad, and, in my case, this should give me a nice day’s worth of use. Besides, I got the speaker for GPS use, so it won’t be used as much. Just for your information. Have a blessed day, and don’t work too hard. Kevin Minor, Lexington, KY -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
