Bluetooth audio can be both a blessing and a curse. When it works, you have endless ways to listen, but if you turn up to give a presentation and discover that the projector can’t connect to your wireless speaker, it can become a nightmare. You can mitigate this risk if you own the Mini 3.5mm AUX Wireless Bluetooth 5.0 Adapter.

This ingenious gadget lets you pair any Bluetooth device with any non-Bluetooth device, meaning you can listen wirelessly or hook up a Bluetooth speaker. It’s normally priced at $39, but in an early Black Friday price drop, you can get it for only $14.95 over at TechRepublic Academy.

This tiny USB dongle takes sound from the built-in AUX socket and beams it wirelessly to any device that supports Bluetooth. That includes speakers, your headphones and even your smartphone. Alternatively, you can use the adapter to send audio via Bluetooth to devices that have an AUX input. It works in both directions at a range of up to 10 meters, and the kit includes an AUX cable for quick connections.

Aside from the business use case, the adapter is great for enjoying wireless audio from your ancient iPod and retro games consoles. Plus, it allows you to quietly watch TV.

Order today for $14.95 to get the adapter at a 61% discount, but be quick — this early Black Friday deal won’t be around for long!
