Thought I'd resurrect this old thread, I had been using an OT buckshot speaker for a few years, it worked great. I kept my phone in my saddle bag and never had connection issues.

After a few years the speaker started to turn off if I experienced some bumps on the road, but I could turn it back on and be fine. Now this year, after fully charging it, not even 40 minutes in it died and could not be powered back on.

I see they have a version 2.0 of my original, and was thinking of buying it but am hesitant since this "rugged" speaker died like this. Plus mine was glow in the dark, and they don't seem to offer this color?

My question is, does anyone have experience with outdoor techs products? Is there another product that's similar?

I liked the small form factor and handlebar mount, plus the controls on the speaker.

Thanks!
