Does the JLab JBuds Party Speaker have a battery?

No. It runs on AC mains power only, so it needs an outlet wherever you use it.

It carries an IP56 rating, which means it resists dust and splashes. It is not designed to be submerged.

Can I control it with an app?

Yes. The JLab app lets you adjust EQ and the light show from your phone.

It delivers 30W RMS, enough for a small room or a backyard gathering. It is not a large-venue PA.

It is sold as a single speaker and does not advertise stereo pairing with a second unit.

Bluetooth 5.3, which gives a stable connection and lower latency than older versions.
