Answers the question: How Do You Charge JBL Wonderboom Speaker? Use the hidden micro USB charge port on the back of the speaker, near the bottom. So here, we run through the charging instructions for this “big sounding” portable speaker.
In short, first select a powerful enough USB power adapter. Why? Because Logitech does not include this with the JBL Wonderboom Speaker as a standard accessory. But you can buy one from them for roughly $20 US if you wish.
Then, connect a micro USB charge cord between the JBL Wonderboom Speaker and that adapter. Then, plug that power supply into a working AC receptacle.
Finally after a few hours, the speaker fully recharges. Then you can play it again for perhaps ten hours before it needs another charge.
First of all, we charge the speaker with the iClever 24 watt dual port USB charger adapter, as shown next. The JBL Wonderboom Speaker needs 5 volts at approximately 0.6 amps to charge fully in a short amount of time. So this iClever USB wall adapter is indeed strong enough to recharge the speaker with lots of energy to spare.
Second, use a penny or a dime to pry open the waterproof seal port cover on the WB. This reveals the micro USB charging port inside, as shown next.
Next, note that the Wonderboom still charges when powered up. But depending on your charger, it may recharge slightly faster when turned OFF.
Then, plug the small end of your micro USB charge cable into the matching micro USB port. Find the port in the rear of this speaker, as shown next.
Then, connect the A end of the USB charge cable to the power adapter.
Now that we connected the speaker and charger, we plug the charger into a working AC outlet, as shown next. In this demo, we plugged our iClever charger into a wall outlet in our kitchen.
The status lamp in the power button lights a fading and brightening white pattern when you supply enough USB power. While no battery status gauge shows percentage of charge, the pulsating white lamp means that charging is happening. Then when the speaker is OFF, it goes out when charging completes. If the speaker is ON, this lamp starts glowing a solid white.
Battery charging is done when the gradually brightening and fading power lamp stops pulsating.
Note that unless you snap this port door tightly into place, water could enter this area. Then this might damage the electronics inside the speaker. So, be sure to press door closed with firm force to seat it, for full water resistance.
Finally, we have now fully charged a Wonderboom wireless Bluetooth speaker.
Now for best battery performance, repeat this recharging every ten hours of play time. This keeps the battery in top working order for months to come. Further, don’t let the battery stay dead for very long. Why? Because if it remains dead for too long, it can stay that way even when you try to recharge it.
