EcoXGear | EcoPebble Lite Portable Bluetooth Speaker 3W | IP67 Waterproof and Floating
The EcoXGear EXPLT501 EcoPebble Lite is a compact, rugged portable Bluetooth speaker rated IP67 for full waterproof and dustproof protection. The EXPLT501 pairs to a phone or tablet over Bluetooth, runs up to 7 hours on a rechargeable lithium battery, and floats if it lands in water. A 3W driver, a bungee strap, and a 1/4-20 threaded mount let it clip or hang almost anywhere on a job site or outdoors.
Phone speakers lack the volume to compete with power tools, wind, or running water, and most portable speakers do not survive a wet, dusty, high-impact environment. A speaker on a job site accumulates dust, absorbs rain, and occasionally drops from a bench, while one at the beach or pool risks complete submersion. The EXPLT501 addresses both situations with a sealed IP67 enclosure that excludes dust and water and floats rather than sinking. Its 3W driver projects clear audio at a level that carries across a work area or a campsite.
For a tradie, the EXPLT501 attaches to a ladder, cage, or handlebar through its bungee strap and 1/4-20 mount, so audio accompanies the job rather than remaining in the vehicle. The rugged IP67 enclosure means a splash of water or a coating of dust wipes away completely at the end of the day. Up to 7 hours of playtime covers a full shift or a day outdoors before it requires a Micro USB recharge. At approximately 250 grams it fits into a tool bag, cooler, or backpack without adding noticeable weight.
Features
- IP67 waterproof and dustproof — the EXPLT501 is sealed against dust and can be submerged in water to the IP67 standard.
- Floats in water — the speaker floats rather than sinking, so a drop in a pool, lake, or cooler is easy to recover.
- 3W driver — the 3W full-range driver gives clear sound that carries over tools, wind, and background noise.
- Up to 7 hours playtime — a rechargeable lithium battery runs the EXPLT501 for up to 7 hours between charges.
- Bluetooth pairing — the speaker connects wirelessly to a phone, tablet, or laptop over Bluetooth.
- 3.5mm Aux input — a 3.5mm Aux In socket takes a wired source for devices without Bluetooth.
- Micro USB charging — the EXPLT501 recharges through a common Micro USB cable from any USB port.
- 1/4-20 threaded mount — a 1/4-20 thread fits handlebar mounts, camera mounts, and tripods.
- Adjustable bungee strap — the bungee strap straps or hangs the speaker on a rail, pack, or cage.
- Compact and light — at approximately 250 grams the speaker drops into a bag, cooler, or glovebox.
- Mono single-speaker sound — the EXPLT501 is a single 3W mono speaker built for portability, not a stereo or high-volume party speaker.
Where to use
- Job sites and workshops — the EXPLT501 gives site music that survives dust, water, and knocks.
- Utes and work vehicles — a rugged speaker travels between jobs without careful handling.
- Beach, pool, and boating — the floating IP67 body suits water and sand where other speakers fail.
- Camping and hiking — light weight and 7-hour playtime suit overnight trips off mains power.
- Bathrooms and showers — the waterproof rating handles steam and splashes indoors.
- Backyard and campsite — the bungee strap hangs the speaker from a gazebo, tent, or branch.
The EXPLT501 is a compact 3W mono speaker made for portability, so it does not match the volume or bass of a larger party speaker for big outdoor gatherings. IP67 covers dust and temporary immersion, not continuous submersion or use underwater. Charging uses Micro USB rather than USB-C, so keep a Micro USB cable on hand.
