All I have to do is plug it directly into the back of the cb and talk, right? Is it weather proof?

Yes you plug it in the back of the cb and put the switch on the cb to PA , I've had my pa speaker for two years and it's been under water and covered in mud , yes its weather proof

Yes it just plugs in to the back of your CB I have mine located in The grill of my truck You can see it from the outside and it still works. Not Very loud Speaker. But you can still get some attention with it

Yes, it is. I have left my speaker outside (accidentally) in snow and fairly heavy rain and it has not missed a beat.

It does require a plug to get current. I would not put it outside, but if you have to, why not completely wrap it in a plastic bag and seal that bag with duct tape. That should keep condensation out.

Its Bluetooth compatible with my cell phone . I can talk through cb speakers and call out through cb speakers.When you talking on cb and your bluetooth compatible cell phone rings the cb auto goes to phone call through cb.Giving you hands free capabilty to use your cell phone through CB radio. Now for radio I really dont know what you wanting to do through radio.

It has been installed outside for couple months and still works fine. I guess it is waterproof at least; not sure if it is weather proof.Make sure your area with good sunshine to use it.

I'm sure its not rated weather resistant. The small module is just a magnet; so it would be weather resistant. The working unit (curcuit board in plastic box) must be close to the WIFI source; it could be sealed and made waterproof; yet; the more it is insulated from the weather, you may block WIFI as well.

I posed your question to Ambient Weather's Customer Care and this is what they said: "The easiest way to recharge the battery is through the USB power port. We have an excellent guide here: http://site.ambientweatherstore.com/Manuals/wr111qs.pdf ." They also said, "You can use your computer to fully charge it. It does charge through the radio."I've been charging mine through the radio and it works fine. Good luck!

its not weather proof because the bottom is chrome and it would discolor... you could put it outside for normal weather as it can be charged up and then unplugged.

There is an outdor unit available on Amazon that works with the intercomms and may serve your needs, but you would either need to find a way to safely power it if it would be exposed to rain or just remember to keep good batteries in it.

I bought it for my son. He hooked it up to his CB radio. He said it would take some different type of wiring to do that and he isn't sure how to do that.

I hung my speakers on my house under my roof soffit. Just for a little extra protection from the elements. Had a few rainstorms and all is fine. The only things that are weather proof are the speakers. The amp, wi-fi adapter and remote are NOT weather/water proof.

I haven't had any problems with it. I talk to my boyfriend all the time on speaker phone and without it. If it's difficult to hear them while driving I recommend having a radio with an aux port. If the radio is Bluetooth compatible just sync it with you're smart phone or use a generic aux cable and plug it into your headphone port on your smartphone. Either way this patches it through your car speakers. This works really well especially if it's windy or bad weather. My bf says when I do that it sounds very clear.

That is the CB I'm using with it. You remove the rubber duckie, and attach the coax. It seems to me that having some sort of plug for the duckie mount would be nice, but you're on your own there.

I would say not for long-term use. If you wanted to plug it in outside while you were there then yes but not for the direct sun or weather /rain

This cb is not a portable unit. It must be wired to the batteries of what ever vehicle you put it in. It takes no separate batteries.

No batteries are required, but you do need some sort of a power source. There's many different wiring options for in vehicles, or they sell 12v adapter plugs but those usually aren't recommended for a cb you don't plan on moving.

Not totally waterproof! I didn't know and installed one close to a tree. After a rain, it quit transmitting. It says to install it out of direct rain. So that's why mine quit working after a bad rain and it was out in the rain!
