We take things for granted until they are gone. So is the case with Bluetooth technology. For so many years, we have had Bluetooth in almost all our gadgets. We rely on it to transfer data too. But we notice its importance most when it isn't there, specially in home theatre systems. Most of the existing home theatre systems and old car audio systems aren't Bluetooth enabled. Hence, we have to rely on the age old method of connecting the phone, tablet or laptop using a 3.5mm cable to play the content.
However, niche Bluetooth audio receivers come in handy for such situations. Zoook's Bluetooth Audio Receiver is a small, compact device with a built-in battery. It has two LEDs - blue and red - that show the status for pairing mode, low on battery or when paired.
The receiver comes with a 3.5mm cable, which can be easily plugged into any home theatre system's audio-in port. Turning on the receiver starts the search for Bluetooth enabled devices. Once paired, it starts streaming the music over the audio system. Used after a few days, the receiver instantly searched for the existing paired devices.
Long pressing the play or stop button switches it to the pairing mode, where red and blue light flases alternately. Once fully charged, the receiver can stream content for close to 7 hours.
Bag it or junk it: A useful accessory for adding Bluetooth capability.
