The Disney Cruise Line Floating Ship Wi-fi Speaker was $120. The field didn’t have a price ticket with a SKU, however the field does have a Disney monitoring variety of FAC-111201-23008.

From what I’ve heard, the version dimension is 2,500, however a Mannequin Distinction Declaration filed with the opposite FCC documents (FCC ID: 2AU4F-L80M) recommend there could also be one other mannequin because it states, “All of the mannequin are the identical circuit and RF module, besides mannequin names.” Sure, that is almost an identical to the $70 Carnival Cruise Line speaker I wrote about in our Mardi Gras trip report. Moreover, the speaker is made by the identical novelty firm that produced the model for Carnival Cruise Line.

As I stated within the journey report, Disney may promote the speaker for double or triple they usually’d fly sail off the cabinets… Nicely, it was near double the worth and proper now company onboard Silver Anniversary at Sea sailings are being informed it’s “SOLD OUT” when asking about it following an early-May tweet.

Right now, I’m unable to get any further data on the supply of the speaker. I can not think about the allotment of floating ship wi-fi audio system are offered out. Primarily as a result of I don’t see any listed on the market for 8x the worth the favored public sale website. I maintain checking Disney Cruise Line’s onboard gifts and amenities page for an choice to pre-purchase, however nothing but. Time will inform when these beauties will will really be accessible.

I need to go away y’all with a little bit of a cautionary story and warning…

DO NOT LEAVE THE SHIP BEFORE TESTING THE SPEAKER. The speaker I’ve doesn’t play any sound and is at present a $120 mud collector that lights up. The speaker will cost, energy up, gentle up, hook up with a bluetooth gadget, and even seem to play music. Nonetheless, there’s completely no sound. Please take the time to check the speaker earlier than it’s too late since this isn’t like buying on land the place we will simply return to the shop to alternate or return. My good friend who picked this up for me reported that the speaker they bought labored in addition to one different visitor who managed to purchase one. That being stated, I can not actually share my opinion on the sound high quality of the speaker.

I emailed the Miami based mostly novelty firm who made the audio system, however haven’t heard again. Who is aware of, there could also be a follow-up article the place I take the speaker into dry dock to repair it myself. The FCC documentation has a pleasant little teardown of the speaker as a information.
