Itchy_Seat_5310Sony SRS-XB501G - I bought two, both on special, both still working. Perfect BT party speaker, internal battery, external 12v supply (car or mains plug pack), water-resistant, and works as Google Smart speaker too. If you can find an old one in working condition - buy it!
The_Masters_3280While not quite as impressive, I bought 2 Sony XB501 Speakers in 2018, I use them everyday, they ride in my golf cart, the case is scratched and banged up, they charge a little funny but still sound awesome. I agree, I dread the day it stops. Both still get 20 hours of play time recharged!!
