About the Etón Rugged Rukus
Spending quality time in the sun? Whether you're camping in the mountains or lying on the beach, just add an Etón Rugged Rukus to your smartphone or tablet, and you've got an instant party. This solar-powered speaker system was made for the great outdoors, where there's no power outlet in sight.
The Rugged Rukus can recharge your smartphone — even while running on battery power.
Stream music wirelessly via Bluetooth from your smartphone or tablet. You're not limited to the songs stored on your device. Enjoy audio from any app or Internet source you can access. Beats Music™, Pandora® Internet radio, Spotify®, YouTube™ — if you can hear it on your device, you'll hear it through the Rugged Rukus.
Solar-powered — and power to spare
The Rugged Rukus delivers about eight hours of continuous operation from its built-in rechargeable batteries. The system can completely recharge in less than five hours via its solar panel, in direct sunlight. When you're home, you can use the included USB cable to recharge your Rukus from your computer.
The system's USB charging port lets you recharge your smartphone or other portable — even when the Rugged Rukus is running on battery power.
Ready to go
The Rugged Rukus was designed for convenient portability. It's small enough to be easily carried in one hand. Integrated loops in the frame were made for carabiners. Hang the Rukus from your backpack and let it charge as you hike.
The rubberized frame is splash-proof. So don't worry about using it near water — be it poolside, at the lake, the river, or just when you're caught in the rain.

This speaker replaced another that I had broken. It has fantastic sound quality and is easy to carry. I got it for the pool but I end up carrying it all over my house while listening to iTunes Radio.
