Today there are all kinds of small and large speakers made for the iPhone. My
Bose Sound Dock 10 which is intended for the iPhone weighs over 25 pounds and
of course does not use batteries but it is a first class music system and it
can send the video out to a large screen TV.
In our motor home, I have a Logitech sound dock that comes with a small remote
control. It's also a clock radio. I paid like 80 dollars for it and it has a
very good sound for a speaker costing under a hundred bucks.
I also have a small speaker that my wife bought for 20 bucks. It is maybe 5
inches long, 2 inches high and slightly thicker then the 3 triple "A" Batteries
it takes. The audio cable is actually the wrist strap. The 3.5Mm plug has a
twist to lock feature so that the jack is protected and you carry the thing
around on your wrist or as I do, connect it to my iPhone, or my Victor Reader
Stream 1 and drop both in my shirt pocket.
All the big box stores plus Radio Shack and Bestbuy stores as well as others
usually have a large selection of portable speakers which use the 3.5 Mm
connector. If you can't find a speaker to meet your needs and for a good
price, keep looking. These models usually are changed very often due to the
high demand but you should be bail to find one that does you well.

:) The speaker did finally die, but boy, it was a long time coming!
This little speaker is brilliant! I also like the packaging, it'll be great
for travel.
Thanks for the input y'all!

When your using the bluetooth radio, it requires power from the speaker.
When you just use a 3.5 Mm plug from your iPhone to the speaker, it is not
using the bluetooth radio and so nothing is being drawn as far as power goes.

Subject: using speaker with 3.5 jack
Hey all,
I have a question about using a bluetooth speaker with a 3.5 audio jack.
I have the hmdx jam jar speaker, which I love! If I remember correctly, it is
4 hours battery life via bluetooth and 12 hours via the 3.5 jack. Well, I have
been mostly using it via the audio cable and I sware it has been way beyond 12
hours.
Does it eventually draw any power from my iDevice? I'm baffled here,
I've used it on bluetooth for a short while, but for the last couple weeks,
I've used it exclusively via the cord.
What do you think is up? I haven't charged the thing once.
Lol, not complaining, but the tech girl in me is curious.
