Waterproof JBL sound you can take anywhere
The JBL Charge 5 is a rugged, take-anywhere Bluetooth speaker that packs 40W of JBL sound, an IP67 waterproof body and up to 20 hours of battery into one hand-sized unit.
Rent it for gatherings, poolside days and all-day events.
The JBL Charge 5 is a portable waterproof Bluetooth speaker.
It puts out 40W of sound from a 30W woofer paired with a 10W tweeter, backed by JBL's dual bass radiators for punch well above its size, across a 60Hz to 20kHz range.
It streams over Bluetooth 5.1 from any phone, tablet or laptop, with no cables to run and no mixer to set up. There is no aux, XLR or microphone input, so it is a purely wireless speaker.
What sets the Charge 5 apart is its ruggedness and stamina.
The IP67 rating means it is fully dust-tight and survives rain, splashes, sand and brief submersion in fresh water, which makes it a natural fit for pool decks, beach days and outdoor events.
The battery runs up to 20 hours on a charge and refills over USB-C, and a built-in USB powerbank output lets the speaker top up a phone when mains power is scarce.
PartyBoost links a second compatible JBL speaker for wider or stereo coverage.
Compared with a smaller JBL Flip, the Charge 5 goes louder and lasts longer, which is why it is a favourite for gatherings, day-outs and any event where you want tidy, splash-proof sound without a full PA rig.
Why Choose This Product
- Bigger sound than a Flip: 40W with dual bass radiators fills a room, garden or poolside for a relaxed gathering.
- Waterproof and dustproof: the IP67 body shrugs off rain, splashes, sand and brief submersion, so weather is not a worry.
- All-day battery: up to 20 hours of playtime means most events run start to finish on a single charge.
- Doubles as a powerbank: the built-in USB output charges a phone when mains power is out of reach.
- Truly portable: under a kilo and pocketable in a bag, easy to carry to a beach, rooftop or day-out.
- Tested and ready: checked for output, pairing and battery health before every rental, so it just works on the day.
How Can You Use This
