If you’re hosting a Canada Day party this weekend, attending one, or even spending a quiet day at home with the family, you might want to look for some cool gear to kick things up a notch. Whether it’s a solid rugged portable Bluetooth speaker for listening to tunes outside or a portable neck fan to keep you cool in the extreme heat we’ll get getting in some parts of Canada, we have you covered.
JBL Flip 7 Portable Bluetooth Speaker
I reviewed the JBL Flip 7 portable Bluetooth speaker last year, even took it with me on vacation to Mexico. It’s ultra-compact so I easily threw it into my backpack as carry-on and we used it on the beach, poolside, and in the rooms while relaxing out of the sun. You get up to 16 hour of playtime. With Auracast, wirelessly pair two or more for even bigger sound. Use it at home out on the deck or to play background tunes for your fireworks show. It’s IP68 rated so don’t worry if it gets some splashes or even accidentally falls in the pool (I wouldn’t submerge it purposely, though). It sounds like it’s much bigger than it actually is.
Buy the JBL Flip 7 portable Bluetooth speaker is $189.98 but on sale for $139.98.
