Do you want to know how to build the best portable speaker, which looks great and sounds even better? This portable speaker will out perform most portable Bluetooth speakers on the market. This speaker is perfect for fishing, camping, the beach, worksites, parties and especially festivals.

This Instructable will go through the basics of how to build your own portable speaker. This speaker features; Bluetooth, FM Radio, Remote Control, Micro SD Card Input, USB Input and AUX input and has amazing 30 hours playtime. That’s more than most portable speakers. We will also go through how to add a solar panel and a phone charger.

You don’t have to be an electronics wizard to make this speaker, as long as you can follow instructions you should be fine. If you still need an extra hand after this instructable, we are offering videos and diagrams so there really is no excuse.

Because this speaker has been so popular, we have launched a crowd funding campaign, to allow as many people to experience the joy of building something they will want to use every single day. We will be offering updates including, how to make it Solar Powered, How to add a Phone Charger, How to give it a professional Paint Job and How to add a touch-screen monitor with Internet Radio.

What’s more because we have launched a crowd funding campaign, we are able to order parts in bulk and recycle components. Therefore if successful we will be able to give all of our backers the opportunity to build their own speaker, at a fraction of the cost that would be paid if each component was bought brand new and separately.

We have also teamed up with our Local Electronic Waste Centre, and literally have thousands of high quality 18650 lithium-ion batteries on hand and ready to go into our speakers.

We are also working with a Social Enterprise to assemble our kits and our Battery Packs – which would usually be too difficult and dangerous for the average Instructables user. In doing so, we are able to provide training and support for people with disabilities and others seeking long-term employment, and reduce the complexity of the build to make it as easy as possible for our builders.

If you like the sound of this speaker, we are using the power of the crowd to get the parts as cheap as possible. We are effectively doing a 'group buy' through our crowd funding campaign to order parts in bulk to save you money. What's more you will also get access to our lithium ion batteries, which are very expensive to buy brand new.
