Nuvelon has created a new wireless speaker lantern
in the form of the Nuvelon Flare, which can be wirelessly synchronised with up
to eight other lanterns to create a network of sound and light. Once connected
the Flare lantern speakers can play music along the length of a football field
and require no applications, external batteries, chords or wireless connection.
With pledges available from US$ 129 for early bird
backers, a saving of Us$ 70 of the recommended retail price is available to the
first 50 backers. With shipping expected to take place during August 2018 if
the campaign is successful and it raises the required US$ 50,000 pledge goal
needed to take the Bluetooth speaker lantern into production.
When connected to another speaker they can be positioned
up to 50ft apart and the synchronisation is capable through walls and around
corners. The speakers need only be synchronised once and the connection will be
automatically made next time the speakers come into range of each other.
Equipped with twin 3 inch front facing full range dynamic drivers, the lantern
Bluetooth speakers are capable of producing 15W of power and are capable of
providing up to 8 hours of playback from a single charge if required.
