Wait a minute . . . this is supposed to be a boombox to take out to the neighborhood court, but has to be plugged into a wall outlet to work? I’d like to meet the engineer who thought up that one . . .
I can’t find anywhere where it says it can run on batteries. I’ve been looking for a good boombox that does run on batteries, but this doesn’t look like it.
Yep, just as I feared. Would anyone know what would be the closest hing to this that DOES run on batteries? I’m familiar with the TDK boomboxes, but that’s about it.
This is still a great deal, assuming you’re not looking for something to carry around.
The Lasonic i-931BTQ is probably the closest thing that runs on batteries, however, it is only 60watts (30 watts per side). It’s also bluetooth so it works well with Apple or Android AND it has a cool retro look.
I have this exact system and I love it, but it is huge. You’re not lugging this thing around anywhere. But the color changing speakers are very cool. Also the ability to play off your own playlists or Pandora or whatever is on your device is nice. As a bonus, it charges while it’s connected too.
I got mine retail so I paid a bit more for it so this is a nice deal, but don’t get this thinking it’s just a handheld boombox. It takes up most of my long dresser.
