These wireless weatherproof landscape speakers NEVER need to be charged

With solar panels on 4 of its 6 sides, Lodge is the world’s first truly wireless solar-powered landscape speaker made to live outside that never needs a power cord or charging cable.

Meet Lodge, a speaker that was BORN for the outdoors. Designed to be used on lawns, porches, poolsides, beaches, riverfronts, and savannahs, Lodge is a heavy-duty energy-efficient speaker that relies on two things – the sun, and a music source. The speaker boasts of a robust, cuboidal design that has solar panels built into its top, sides, and rear, covering 180 square inches of space. That’s enough to power Lodge even on cloudy days, say the makers, Lodge Outdoors.

Lodge is a no-cables, no-hassles kind of speaker. Designed to work wirelessly, the speaker relies on the sun for power, and you for music. Equipped with a Bluetooth 5.3 chipset (the latest as of January 2022), Lodge connects to devices as far as 100 feet away without a stutter in connection. Lodge even designed the speaker to withstand all the elements of the outdoors, from the sun to sand, and from light rain to even your powerful lawn sprinklers. Not just the speakers, but even the solar panels are designed to be shatter and chip-proof, allowing you to charge your outdoor speaker regardless of where you are.

Effortless Setup – Simply select any spot, insert the stakes, and mount your speakers in seconds.

Powered by the Sun – Covered in 180 square inches of high-performing, shatterproof solar panels to ensure your sound system is always charged.

Everything Proof – Designed to truly weather any storm, whether it’s splashes, rain, dust, sand, or dirt.

Bluetooth Connectivity – Play your favorite tunes with your favorite apps without worrying about latency or dropped connections.

So how powerful IS a solar-powered speaker? Well, considering Lodge is made for outdoor use, it does pack a punch. While its solar charging ability seems like its highlight, a speaker’s quality must always be measured by its sound, right? To that end, Lodge comes with a massive 4-inch primary driver, a 3/4-inch tuned dome tweeter, and a 4-inch passive subwoofer, giving the speaker its clear, balanced audio. A 50W amplifier allows Lodge to throw punches outdoors, and on the inside a battery gives your outdoor speaker 15 hours of running on a full charge (that’s long enough to go from sunset to sunrise, when it begins charging again).

Just in case you don’t have access to the sun at moment’s notice (in which case you’re probably living in a country that gets limited sunlight, or you’re in an underground bunker – who am I to judge), Lodge does have a USB-C port on it to keep the party going, outdoors as well as indoors. The speaker comes with a magnetic stand that plugs into the ground (sort of like a tiki torch), and you can unplug your Lodge at any time and carry it around with you wherever the party is.

Why hasn’t anyone made a truly wireless solar-powered speaker made to live outside? Well, a quick search on Google will yield a few results from some unknown brands, although Lodge hopes to cement its space in this relatively unexplored category. The Lodge Outdoors team isn’t new to this rodeo either: the company comprises a talented crew of experienced engineers and designers who have worked for companies like Bose, Makerbot, Eight Sleep, Flextronics, and more. Since September 2020 they’ve been conceptualizing and building the speaker, and they just launched on Kickstarter. A single Lodge currently costs $210 on Kickstarter (that’s a 30% discount off its MSRP) and they come in two and four speaker packs. Lodge begins delivering to backers as soon as August 2022.
