JBL Endurance Peak Earbuds (JBL)
Summer is already in full force, and that means it’s time to head out to the beach, take a long bike ride, or explore the great outdoors. These gadgets offer something special and unique to make your excursions more enjoyable, and most are 100 percent beach ready.
1. JBL Endurance Peak Earbuds ($120)
The term “fully waterproof” doesn’t usually apply to earbuds. They are often too light and delicate for use in the water. The JBL Endurance Peak are swim-ready and stay secure in your ear, and they last four hours per charge (with five more charge-up using the included case).
One of the most interesting products of the summer, this cooler lets you skip the ice. Battery powered to last all day, it can also keep charging using solar panels. If you need to charge your phone, the USB port provides enough juice for ten charge-ups.

3. Gocycle GS Electric Bike ($2,799)
Most electric bikes are so heavy you can barely lift them into your car or onto a bike rack. The Gocycle GS only weighs 36 pounds and folds up like a suitcase. It lasts for 40 miles per charge, and doesn’t look as goofy as some fold-up bikes -- it’s more like a trendy BMX bike.
4. Withings Move Smartwatch ($70)
Many smartwatches last only a day or two, but the Withings Move is different. It’s designed to track your steps, sleep, laps in a pool, and more. The screen shows the time and your activity, but the included app provides more detail like a daily sleep score. Lasts 18 months per charge.
