We at KitSound decided to fuse colour and music for our beautiful KS Glow speaker, with a powerful sound and a stunning light display.
Configurable light display
Set the mood with the included remote control that allows you to mix your perfect colour, or let the KS Glow decide for you. With five different modes, including flash, strobe, fade, smooth and one which changes in time to your music, the KS Glow ensures that you'll always create the right atmosphere.
Wirelessly stream music
Thanks to the KS Glow's Bluetooth connectivity, you can enjoy high-quality audio streaming with no wires to get in the way. Switch up the playlist using either the included remote or directly from your device, the choice is yours. You don't have to worry about the party ending before it's even got started: the KitSound Glow has an impressive play time of up to eighteen hours.
Water resistant and dustproof
Rated to IPX4 standard, your Glow speaker isn't afraid of a little dust and water - so it's just as happy glowing in the garden as it is lighting up your lounge.
The KitSound Glow
From 'Purple Rain' to 'Yellow Submarine', colour and music have always made great partners. After we were inspired by synaesthesia, you can now combine colour and music in the best way possible with the KitSound Glow.

It does glow well and kids probably wouldn't notice the terrible sound too much. I wouldn't spend more than £15 on one though.

To be honest mate you would be better off buying something else, as the speaker on this unit is terrible. I reckon they must of spent all the money on everything 'but' the speaker, as it seems they lifted them straight out of a Morris Ital (the sequel to the Morris Marina) The bass is virtually non existent, the mids are muddy and the highs are pretty much drowned out by the poor bass & mids.
Also the mode that is supposed to flash the LEDs to the music either doesn't work 'at all' or I have a defective unit? Oh and if the battery is flat you can't use it with the power adapter, as it seems it only has enough power to just charge it.
So in short:
If you want a glowing box with a 10p speaker in it, that sounds terrible (& gets worse the higher the volume) that you can't use when the battery is flat and a party piece that doesn't work (flashing to the music) then get one when the price comes down again (or B&M do one that flashes light for £9.99 and it can't be any worse than this piece of crap)
Lastly if you don't need the glowing gimmick buy something like a JBL Flip. It's only the size of a Red Bull can and sounds a hell of a lot better than this (I have one) I only bought this one as I thought it would be cool to use in my campervan (with the lights flashing to the beat) and although I could forgive that the 'beat flashing' doesn't work, I can't forgive the crappy speaker. I'm just going to box it back up and give it to a friend for Christmas.
Just to add:
There is no auxiliary input, so you can't just plug in a device with a headphone output (using a 2/3.5 jackplug lead) This means the only way to get music out of this speaker is with bluetooth..

Heat from me but note I have a different speaker which is cheaper (£8,99 for prime), a bit more powerfull and has NFC as well:
Not water resistant and it won't change colour though. Sound quality is very good

Well that statement is only true IF you have Amazon prime, if not it's £4.75 more expensive thus making eBay the cheaper option.

You can get the one delivered from eBay for Wednesday, whereas on Amazon you will be waiting between 8 Nov -14 Nov. 2016 (& as mentioned, you will be paying an extra £4.75 if you don't have prime)

Prime Member but did exactly the same as you! 27 quid all in. Can't believe the numpties voting this cold because it's same price for PRIME MEMBERS on Amazon. Like I said, I'm a Prime member but if you are buying more than one ebay all the way. Plus you'll get it quicker from ebay Voda store as it's actually in stock and from previous experience the delivery service is brilliantly quick.

Does anyone know if sound quality is decent?
