Q: QuestionDoes it float

Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer The JBL Charge 3 does float. About half of the speaker is submerged while half stays above water. But..... even though it is pretty cool to see the speaker float, it’s still a 180$ speaker, do you want to risk water damage? The sound from the speaker do sound a bit messed up when on the water as the speakers are hitting the water but are not fully submerged.

To keep the battery healthy, it is not advisable to drain the battery before charging it, small, frequent charges are better than charging it 0-100% at a time.
