Joerg said:BTW, since you seem to be an audio guru: Is there any truly digital
wireless mike system with a reasonable battery life (like >5hrs for the
lapel mikes)? Preferably with AA and not with 9V batteries.
Dunno about digital. The Shure analog UHF packs, with lav mics, last more
than 6 hours with a pair of alkaline AAs. One of my gigs uses a dozen or
more channels of them; we put fresh batteries in at 4:30pm, and at 10:30pm
when the show ends they're usually still showing three or four out of five
bars on the battery life indicator. We replace them every night anyway - if
we went for two nights, by the end of the second night we'd be too nervous.
As jak said, the price of batteries is small compared to the price of the
show going down.
