my problem is nobody shows up to my house for parties and i could blame that
on the fact that i'm in self-isolation during the covid pandemic but i think we
all know that isn't true so there's two ways that i can solve this problem
either i can make friends or i can make
my house so cool with technology that nobody can stay away and i think we
all know where this is going so in this video sponsored by anchor
thank you anchor i will be using this
100 of their flare 2 bluetooth speakers to
create the most bizarre home sound system that you guys have ever seen
these things have got everything they've got a 360 degree sound they are ipx7
water resistant they last for 12 hours on battery they've got RGB lighting and
anchor claims with their app you can run
up to 100 of them
hence the 100 speakers off of a single phone playing the same
thing so we have enough of these to put literally eight speakers in every room
of my house let's see how it goes
step one is going to be to unpack 100
bluetooth speakers my team helpfully just dropped them off here in the master
cartons as they were delivered from anchor so do you want to shuck speakers
or do you want to pair them to the phone why don't we both start by shucking
speakers i feel like pairing them to the phone is going to be pretty fast
all right why don't we make it a race why don't we each take a master cart and
see who can finish it first well gamify it oh what the heck is on this knife
gross ready set go oh shoot this knife
is really bad i can't even cut the plastic
okay your stuff is getting on my side that's not fair you're in you're in my
space you have to move that stuff what
you're not done are you what the heck
done now do another 85.
okay
look i've told you before that i think that if i was your direct report you
would have fired me ages ago
i'm really hungry
i think that is a spectacular idea because if you order the food then i
will get ahead of you i didn't say i had to order food for you
oh that's how it's gonna be
you know you were saying you wanted to have like a date night
yeah candlelit dinner with you know some romantic music
RGB lit dinner
we've decided to end the box opening race because
Yvonne couldn't take the heat what are you talking about we need to start pairing so i'm going to finish the rest
of them so we need the soundcore app so you pair the first flare2 to your phone
just the normal way in your bluetooth settings then you hold the bluetooth button for
three seconds it'll make a noise and flash white
okay then these other ones which you can see are just sitting in pairing mode they're not connected to anything that's
important we hold the button for three seconds
it should flash white and then go solid white that means that
this one is in secondary mode there it is and it's paired
i'm gonna do the same thing here now my primary speaker is still flashing
and my secondary ones are all solid that's good let's try some light effects
oh hey i think it's working
hold on
that worked shockingly painlessly okay so now from within the app
i've got my flare to
sorry sorry the good news is that based
on how easy this is i think i might actually have all these connected before
you finish opening the boxes yeah yeah yeah sure whatever excuse you
want to make what you should do is power them on and then i will hold it again
while i put them down and that will put them in secondary mode
if we had thought to orient them all the same way
this reminds me of trolls
oh i missed one look at them
round two
that's as high as we can go so now all that's left to do is for me to turn off
the extra bass it does have an extra bass feature if you're into that personally i'm not and then go into the
lighting effects and make sure that everything is in fact
synchronized okay are you ready to try a song
yeah maybe
okay i am at
like 25 volume
like forty
fifty
seventy
i made it to 80 that was unbearable
maybe when it's distributed all over the house right oh
oh man fun is heavy
we start by placing our primary speaker in the center-most point of the house
here on the stairs party stairs 10 speakers for the playroom
another one up here party in the pantry 10 for the kitchen
there
who needs to play your own music
do this
RGB dining room table centerpiece yes please
cats like music speakers on speakers on speakers
coffee table bathroom
cloak room more on the stairs
upstairs
some mood lighting for your mood music
bathroom who needs candles and you've got
RGB hopefully these don't fall
kids like music and colorful lights
hallway
speakers computer speakers
more computer speakers on top of computer speakers server room
speakers
oh no the ribbon more hallway speakers
patio table speakers all right
oh my feet are wet ah garage speakers whole house covered
let's test it out
okay how bearable do you think it's gonna be to go back in the house
all right
well definitely works the sound is absolutely everywhere
unreal
oh my poor cat she doesn't know what to think oh dashie
sweetheart come here
oh i'm sorry baby come on
come on
something's not quite right here ah i know
hey there we go
you know i'm not sure if there's enough speakers in here
i think we've made our point as a practical thing hooking up a hundred of
these things probably doesn't make a ton of sense there are better solutions for
that sort of thing but if all you really wanted to do was hook up like three or
four of them that could actually be a fantastic
solution to having surprisingly well synced audio all over
a site as large as my house as long as you stay within bluetooth range you are
good to go so thank you to soundcore by
anchor for sponsoring this video you guys can check them out these are the
flare tubes they're at the link in the video description and if you guys
enjoyed this video wow we really don't do anything like this at all do we i
don't know let's link to some good ol wholesome build a pc content shall we
