Which is better for running in the rain?

The JBL Endurance Pace. It is rated IP68, so it handles sweat and rain. The Dashlyte+ is only listed as water-resistant with no IP number.

Which has longer battery life?

The OPN Sound Dashlyte+. It runs up to 17 hours. The JBL Endurance Pace runs up to 10 hours of play or 8 hours of talk.

Is the JBL worth the extra $22?

If you need waterproofing, multi-point, and a bigger driver, yes. If you mostly want long battery and low light visibility, the Dashlyte+ covers that for less.

Which is better for calls?

The Dashlyte+ has two ENC noise-canceling microphones against one on the JBL, so it should pick up less background noise on calls.

Which is safer at night?

The Dashlyte+. Its LED lights along the back band make you more visible to drivers at dusk and after dark. The JBL has no lights.

Can I connect the JBL to two devices at once?

Yes. The Endurance Pace supports multi-point over Bluetooth 5.4. The Dashlyte+ does not list multi-point.
