Portable Bluetooth Speaker 2x3W Finished !

Bluetooth Speaker

Make your own loud Bluetooth Speaker easy explained, cheap and handy to use for less then 14$.

Maybe you have some components which you don't need to buy like 3W speakers to make it less expensive.

In the following steps I will try to explain on the easiest way how to assemble this bluetooth speaker, people who don't know a lot of electronics will understand I hope, because I didn't know a lot about speakers,amplifiers and bluetooth stuff before making this speaker.

This speaker has a long battery life when you use good 18650 lithium batteries.

I found 3x 18650 lithium batteries which I used in parallel and has a total of 6600mah, the speaker plays 22 hours on the highest volume which is very loud.

You can charge the speaker with a micro USB, which is very handy!

In the next video I will show you the finished speaker and play a song to show you.

Step 1: Collect the Parts You Need

Collect the parts

What do you need?

- Bluetooth Stereo Audio Module:Ebay

If you wanna use a more easy and cheaper way, choose for the bluetooth audio USB, Very easy to connect and longer bluetooth distance! Check my other instructable were I used the bluetooth usb for the connections ;)

- Micro usb Charger module 5V 1A:Ebay

If you want a undervoltage protection to you can use this Micro usb protected charging module.

Check my other instructable were I used this protected charging module for the connections ;)

- 2x3W Amplifier:Ebay

I Should really recommand THIS Amplifier if you use a bluetooth audio USB, after I building it with the normal one I deccided to add a volume switch because the bluetooth usb has a very loud startup sound!

- 2 Speakers 3W 4Ω:Ebay

These speakers had good reviews and the sound is very good for there size!

or Ebay -> These are 8Ω 3W speakers which will sound more clear then 4Ω but not that loud.

- 3.7V Lithium 18650 Battery:NKON

I found my lithium battery in a router/modem, you can easy find them in laptop batteries, the battery of a drill or other electrical stuff. You just need a 3.7V Lithium Battery (You can also buy them on the internet)

I would really recommend to search very good after these because they aren't cheap

- Capacitor: 100µF capacitor

- Small wires and a switch

Step 2: Put the Parts Together

Put the parts together

Connect the parts with wires which you can see in the picture.

It's easy to glue the bluetooth module to a circuit board to make it stronger because otherwise the wires will snap from the module I guess.

You can also add buttons on the bluetooth module to change volume, pauze or play a song and go to the next song, but I didn't do that in my bluetooth speaker.

In the next video, I will do a quick test of the speaker with a voltage source instead of a battery, but it works the same. Also watch my video below where I play a song when the speaker is totally finished ! :)
