Move 2 - range and power for outdoor movies

I am thinking of using a Move 2 to solve an outdoor movie scenario issue I have.

I am using a 1080p projector, with a 30’ screen that is around 50’ from the PJ. The PJ has a 10W speaker, and that is lame, and no usable audio options except a 3.5mm jack. I did try a P5:Gen 1 at max volume, which was better but still insufficient. That was also located next to the PJ ie behind the audience, which isn’t ideal.

My idea is to get a 3.5mm->Bluetooth adapter for the PJ, then stick a Move 2 under the ‘screen’ (its really the neighbor’s exterior wall). There is no power near this location.

What is the range of Bluetooth in clear air, with little RF interference?

How much louder will a Move 2 be than a P5:Gen1?

(Yes, this is not an audio-grade setup, I am aware of the limitations of my scenario, I just need more volume)

As this is for occasional use only,

I bet the neighbour whose external wall you’re projecting onto is pleased this is only occasional, given the volume you’re wanting to achieve…!

She is in the audience along with many other neighbors!

She’s not got much choice!! 🤣
