New Outdoor BTP04 from Hercules is IP64-certified and has been specially created for sports fans and adventure lovers.

New York, May 23, 2013 – Because outdoor sports and adventures are even more fun with a soundtrack to great music, Hercules created the WAE Outdoor BTP04, the latest addition to its WAE – Wireless Audio Experience range. With its adrenaline-pumping properties, music can often be a catalyst driving high intensity athletes to the next level. The new Outdoor BTP04 allows listeners to stream all of their favorite music anywhere from their smartphone or tablet, taking any outdoor activity to new heights.

Created specially for sports fans and adventure lovers, the new IP64-certified speaker equipped with Bluetooth® wireless technology provides total protection against water splashes, snow, dust and sand. Its rubber end pieces and double protective grille ensure enhanced impact resistance. It's perfect for amateur or pro skiers and snowboarders, surfers, kite boarders, BMX riders, mountain bikers, hikers, parkour fans and more!

At just over nine ounces and six inches wide, it's the perfect companion for all sports activities – whether in the street, at the beach or out on the slopes. Despite its small size, it delivers accurate sound quality, with more than 14 hours of listening time and a range of more than 33 feet (performance may vary depending on the audio source and your surroundings).

Thanks to its built-in microphone, it also includes a hands-free calling function: take a call, and then pick up listening to your music right where you left off. It couldn't be easier! For even more output power, users can connect multiple Outdoor BTP04 speakers to one another for joint playback.
