With the growing popularity of wireless, Bluetooth speakers in the market, we have seen companies come up with unique Bluetooth speakers to satisfy consumer needs. However, none of the Bluetooth speakers that exist in the market can be powered by the flow of water, except this new “hydropower” Bluetooth speaker.
The water-powered Bluetooth speaker will easily attach to your existing showerhead without any additional equipment. Then it will use the company’s proprietary hydropower system to charge-up the batter of the speaker using the energy from the water flow.
Once the device fully charges, it will offer up to 16 hours of playtime, even when the shower is off. As a result, you do not need to waste water to charge the device. One shower is enough to charge up the speaker for extensive usage.
Now, even though the speaker is powered by water, it does not compromise on the sound quality. The company installed its proprietory Sound Wave amplifier in the Shower Power which enables it to deliver an immersive 360-degree surround sound experience in the showers.
Apart from these unique features, Ampere also thought about the environment and manufactured the Shower Power with 100% recyclable ocean plastic. One Shower Power, according to the company, contains 15 plastic bottles retrieved from the oceans.
The company is currently running a Kickstarter campaign for the product. It has already gathered more than $136,000 (~Rs 97,73,398) from 1608 backers, as of writing this article.
