Review on Outdoor Tech OT2301 Buckshot 2.0: Rugged 🔊 Waterproof Wireless Speaker for Outdoor Adventures, Mossy Oak by Sean Garrison

This speaker was perfect for my occasional use. Liked the size and shape. Fits easily in my pockets and backpacks. The sound quality isn't the best, but that's Bluetooth, and the speaker diameter can be 1-2 inches? He was perfect for his job. I bought it in February 2017 and now the speaker is showing problems. One day when I was using it, I turned it on unexpectedly and the playback audio for "Power On", "Pair" and "Power Off" was very slow and robotic/distorted. The speaker also fails to pair with any device. I contacted customer service/tech support via email and they were unhelpful and ignorant of their product. I described the problem to them, they told me to leave it on and let the battery drain completely so the device can restart. After I did that, they wanted me to reply to them and let them know it's still happening after charging. Since this speaker has stopped working I am unable to send audio to it which can drain my battery faster. I asked her how long I can expect this battery to be completely dead so I know what to expect. They told me they had no answer. I replied again and asked how they could not know the estimated battery life/discharge rate that they put on their own product. They responded again by saying they don't know how much charge my battery currently has, so they can't give me an answer on how long it will take to run out. I replied to them again and said that the current amount of battery power is irrelevant. To be even more specific, in my fourth email I asked how long the battery is drained on average at 100% or even 50% charge. They again replied that they did not have this information. Over 72 hours later this speaker is still not dead. As I expected as the only current drawn from the battery is a small blinking LED.
