Comparison Tronsmart Element Force+ vs Tronsmart Element Force

- LCD display. Such a screen makes device management more intuitive: it can display the operating mode, equalizer settings, battery level, etc.

- Remote control. Portable sound system can be equipped with wireless remotes operating in the IR range. The advantages of such equipment are obvious: the system can be controlled from a distance, without the need to approach it every time.

- Handle / strap. The presence of a handle or strap makes wearing the speaker more comfortable. So the handle is used mainly in large stereo speakers and makes them look like boomboxes ( radio tape recorders) of yesteryear. The strap can be used both for large speakers and for miniature ones, which allows you to hang them on your hand, on elements of a backpack, etc.

- Flashlight. Such a function most likely will not replace a high-end specialized flashlight. The power of the built-in flashlight is usually enough to illuminate at least a distance of 2 - 3 meters, and models with a bike mount (see above) can even play the role of a headlight (although, again, they are inferior to specialized bicycle lights).

— Carabiner A latch-like device that allows you to attach the speaker to items of clothing, backpack straps, etc.

- Sucker. Such a device makes it possible to securely fix the column on a flat surface and easily remove it from there. Suction cups are often equipped with waterproof models that can even be used in bathtubs and showers.

- Bike mount. A special device designed to fix the column on a bicycle - usually on the handlebars, at the user's fingertips. Such models are often complemented by a speakerphone function that allows you to talk on the phone without taking your hands off the steering wheel.

- Battery powered. Powered by replaceable elements (in the form of batteries or accumulators), usually AA or AAA. This option makes the speakers more autonomous - and, unlike the built-in battery, sockets are not required for such models, the main thing is to have a supply of fresh batteries on hand. At the same time, the batteries themselves are usually not included in the kit, they must be purchased separately; at the same time, the capacity of disposable batteries may turn out to be different (usually it depends on the price category), and elements in the form of batteries are expensive.
