When do I need to charge my speaker?
When the CHARGE indicator flashes slowly in orange, the battery is running low and needs to be charged. If the CHARGE indicator flashes three times in orange and turns off when you turn on the speaker, the battery is empty and needs to be charged.
What kind of battery does a speaker need?
The speaker contains a rechargeable lithium ion battery which should be charged before using the speaker for the first time.
How does a speaker system affect the electrical system?
It is important to understand that the speakers themselves do not add any extra draw on the electrical system. Speakers use the power provided by the amplifier. Only the amplifier, built-in or external, draws current from the electrical system. Also, at lower volumes, the amplifiers will draw less current than they do at higher volumes.
Can a speaker be charged from an AC outlet?
A speaker that is in use can be charged if it is connected to an AC outlet, though the CHARGE indicator does not light up. In this case, it may take longer to charge the battery than when the speaker is turned off depending on the conditions of use. Therefore, it is recommended to turn off the speaker when charging.

What to do if your speakers have no power?
Plug the amp or receiver into an electrical outlet, play back a source signal, such as FM radio, on the receiver, and adjust the volume to a comfortable level for listening.
How does sound charge a cell phone battery?
A sound absorbing pad on top vibrates when sound waves hit it, causing the tiny zinc oxide wires to compress and release. This movement generates an electrical current that can then be used to charge a battery.
Why do sound sources have current and voltage?
In summary: All electronic sound sources must have current and voltage to operate because they convert electrical energy into sound (and heat) energy. The electrical power they consume is given by P = I V, where P is the power, I is the current, and V is the voltage.
