The Beat Silicone Hydra Bottle is a reusable water bottle designed for people who like running, hiking, bicycling, and kayaking. It's unique in that you can store/protect your phone inside the water bottle. You can do this while either to your music with headphones or by letting the cord-free bottle amplify it. Manufactured of 100% silicone,the music amplifier water bottle is dishwasher safe, heat resistant up to 300° Fahrenheit, and freezable down to -40° Fahrenheit. It is also FDA approved, 100% BPA and Phthalates free and 100% recyclable. The bottle ships with a wrist strap that makes it easy to keep it close while active. Though initially designed for iPhone 4s and 5s, many other make and model phones will fit as well. The bottle features an hourglass shape for easier one-hand manipulation and a flip spout that “shoots a perfect stream of water wherever you point the bottle”. Although the Beat Silicone Hydra Bottle does not have a manufacturer website, it is sold on Amazon, Sears, Brookstone and several other retailers.
