Is the power switch only accessible via unscrewing the cap on the right hand side and not via the top of the speaker?Might get annoying unscrewing no?

The cap does not unscrew, it it tight fitting. You just pop it off and it has an internal piece that keeps it attached. I tested mine by dropping it in the pool while it was playing. It bobbed and then floated, music never stopped and no problems since, that was two weeks ago.

I'd imagine you have to screw the cap on to make the product waterproof therefore if I want to take advantage of that feature I have to screw it on evertime I use the speaker. Wouldn't it of made more sense to put an on/off switch with the other controls on top to prevent the screwing on/off of the cap each use. Thanks for your input in clarifying if my understanding is correct.

Lets not let the looks cool you.. Unscrewing it would be a nice feature! But it's just a rubber cap that you pull off and access the on/off switch and you can charge it there too and a line in

That is correct, its under the cap. The battery life is good enough to just leave it on all day so it doesnt bother me.

Yes, the power button is on the right under the circular cap. The cap doesn't actually screw on, it stays closed by pushing cap over the raised threads. It actually stays pretty secure.

It's actually not a screw-on cap. It's more like a pop on/pop off thing . . . quick & easy to access.

The switch is under that cap, but it doesn't screw off. It just kind of pops off. It's just a water protection and isn't an annoyance at all.

The volume control remote has a button on top that cycles through Bluetooth, wired input (the line-in and optical inputs use the same jack so only one can be connected), and power. I never turn mine off though. There's no hiss or hum, the LED isn't obnoxious, and I'm willing to pretend that the power draw is minimal. The speakers will automatically reconnect to my phone when I come home and it's very nice to simply hit play to resume whatever I had been listening to in the car.

Yes, the on/off switch is in the tail cap. I find mine to be difficult pushing the switch in far enough with a finger to click the switch, but the switch is much easier to operate by poking it with a knuckle!

There is no power switch. You have to plug it in to power on and unplug to power off.

Not really. The device is not "user friendly" and difficult to open without the possibility of cracking/breaking the plastic shell or damaging internal components. To answer your question, I very carefully opened mine with two flat tip jewelers screwdrivers. I think I cracked a small piece of plastic near the volume button, but that's OK. It's not my primary device. Once I had the back partially open, I could see that the battery is essentially hardwired into the unit, including what appears to be glue or special tape holding it in place. I also noticed a couple thin wires connecting from the inside of the unit to the speaker that sits in the back plate. Should you decide to open it, be aware that the wires might get pulled off the internal circuit board. Bottom line, I wouldn't recommend "messing" (technical term) with the internal "guts" (another technical term) of the device unless absolutely necessary.

Mine has a switch on the side of the top portion. It is hidden in a groove which has a dark grey cap.

The power button is slightly recessed below the level of the back / bottom cap. Something would need to actually poke past the surrounding cap to turn it on.

No there is no way to turn it off. Unless you tried to pull out the speaker. Which I'm sure would void any warranty, I'm not sure how hard that would be either.

Sorry for the delay in responding to your question. I did not know the answer (I like the little blue lights, so I never tried to turn them off) until just now when I happened across the tiny info pamphlet that came with the speakers. According to that, the power button is the one on the backside of the big speaker (subwoofer). There is another button on the front side, near the bottom. It's easy to miss -- I never noticed it before. It turns the "BassPULSE" (AKA little blue lights) on & off

Easy to remove just be real mindful not to pull the electrical connector out of the speaker housing without first unlocking the locking tab

It is normal for the power light to be on. The sound stops but the power stays on until the volume button is turned off. But who wants to do that when you're sleeping?!

Just tried to pop mine off, it IS permanent . Sure you could disassemble it with tools, but it does not just unplug or anything. Hope this helps.

The off/on switch is on the thin edge of the device left side (not underside). It's near the charging plug in

You can leave the power cord connected to the speakers, but i recommend unplugging them from the power source after use. Especially for the price, you don't want them to mess up on you. But this is a great buy and with great customer service as well.

Twist the cap. If you bottom it out and then back off and quickly bottom out the cap it switches between modes. It's very easy and solid.

Yes, power switch is on the back, under a clear rubber cover, just below the handle. It's a rocker switch, so just push around until it clicks over. Same thing happened to me the first time!

The speaker has a tiny light which flashes alongside the power button. In my opinion, this light shouldn't bother you if you point it away from you. If it does bother you, you can easily cover it.
