Can I take it outside and still stream from device. Approx. 30 to 40 feet.

You can take it outside but typical Bluetooth range is about 25 to 30 feet so it is a very good chance you will experience loss of signal beyond 30 feet. I take my speaker outside and in the garage a lot but keep my audio source within 5-10 feet of my speaker.

Dear Customer,Thank you for your question regarding our BTX270 Wireless Bluetooth Portable Speaker. The maximum range for Bluetooth is 10 meters, or 32 feet. As long as you're within that range the speaker should work OK. Please contact us at support@kinivo.com if you have any additional questions.Thank you,Kinivo Product SupportEmail: support@kinivo.comToll Free: 1-855-4Kinivo (1-855-454-6486)Live Chat: http://support.kinivo.com(Mon-Fri: 9am-5pm Pacific)

Sorry I didn't reply sooner. It depends on how many other wireless signals are in the area. Sometimes I've had a range up to 50 yards or more. Other times not as much. 30 yards shouldn't be a problem.

Probably a mistake, Bluetooth is good up to about 30 feet depending on the area involved and obstructions.

A lot of that depends on how old the battery is. I have done that with no problems I could see. I would do it if I was streaming.

I would not use it anywhere, least of all, outdoors. I found the device to be completely unreliable--to the point of being useless--and returned it. It certainly did not seem like it was designed or constructed for outdoor use. Perhaps if it were under an overhang and not directly exposed to the elements it would "work"

Range is more limited than I would have liked. Really only get about 30 feet max and less through exterior walls. Probably just the limitations of the technology but worse than I expected. Better off figuring a way to steam music by connecting to your home wifi.

You are correct on the unit to receiver. I have it set at across my street and it is about 45 feet.I have not tried it farther.

Well I had the phone in a bag at the beach. And I was actually in the water with the speaker. It was a full open space and the connection worked great ! Can't say it was exactly 30ft, but I would say about 20-25ft and worked perfect.

No. This device is Bluetooth which has a range of maybe 30 to 50 feet normally.

I have tested it at 50 ft and it works as long as there is no bluetooth on anywhere. Bluetooth will mess it up at any distance.

I don't think you can, as the water it uses is housed in the reservoir built on the device. That function also requires AC power.

No more than 30 feet. Less if there are walls in between. Works as well as other BT devices I have.

You probably can, however, I kept it outside. The metal box might prohibit the transmission of the wireless signal.

You can stream from your iphone or ipad to the unit by plugging directly into it. You will not be able to do it wirelessly.

I listened to my 'broadcast' for at LEAST 1/4 mile one day as I drove away from my house. (I will caution you, however, that you should use this ability with caution. As someone else has commented, the device does not meet FCC Requirement, 'Part 15'--or something like that. Use it responsibly.)

I have a 50 ft extension cord attached to my device. It's great for working outdoors in the middle of nowhere, literally. I haven't had any problems with it either.

Good luck getting this device to function outside of a 3ft area of where you plug in the dongle.The one I purchased only reaches about that far.
