Introduction
it contains Remote control for the NPB3 Bluetooth Speaker. Multipurpose USB Charging Cable. Incredible Sound and Power A whopping 30 watts of power are output by this speaker. It is quite noisy! When I play basketball, I always bring a portable Bluetooth speaker with me. The speaker was never loud enough, which annoyed me. That’s why I made the decision to create the NPB3. Even if you are not seated exactly next to it, you may still hear it outside because it is portable and loud enough for outdoor use. Everyone loved it when I showed it to the staff members here! One of our employees uses this at their desk to play music. They need to quiet down because the noise is disturbing our entire customer service staff, so we have to tell them to! LED Lights That Play Music An LED light within each of the woofers blinks in time with the music. The silver woofers give them a pretty unique aesthetic. On the woofer, the blue reflects beautifully! Extended Battery Life We employ a premium original 1200 mAh battery with a 3-hour charge time and a playback time of up to 6 hours. Incredible Bluetooth Integration With a 33-foot range and increased data rate, Bluetooth 2.1 is used in this speaker. It’s quite simple to pair your phone or another Bluetooth-enabled device! There is no need for a password.
Multiple Sources of Listening to The NPB3 includes USB/SD playback in addition to Bluetooth, and you may use the supplied cable to listen to any devices with a typical 3.5MM headphone connection, such as a smartphone or MP3 player. We also included an AM/FM radio with excellent reception.

How can you tell when a boombox has finished charging
One of those “dots” would blink to indicate battery level and charging status if the device was charging. All of the LED “dots” on the speaker should be continuously lighted if it is completely charged, and none of them should flash. Once fully charged, the LED dots will entirely disappear if the unit is turned off. -
Why won’t my Boombox and phone connect? Please try going into your phone’s settings and switching Bluetooth on and off. Once Bluetooth “BLUE” pairing is complete, click the Menu button on the boombox. You will hear a chime and another when you pair to your Bluetooth device.
