so you take the bat.out of the mics every time you get done with your show and charge them when you get home ? i compliment you on your patience, little things like that i dont have the patience, when i get done with my show i just opened up the mics and get rid of the bat. i just wanna unload my gears when i get home and hit the sack

No I don't take the batteries out for every show. The batteries last approximately 30 hours on continuous use, but I have at least 4 batteries with me at every show. Back home I have 4 more that have been charging for hours, so they'll be ready for next time. All my mics have LEDs which show me the state of the batteries. The AVGs LED stays off until the battery needs replacing then it turns on. The Audio Technica LEDs stay lit and get dim when the batteries get weak.

i haven't notice that, i know that it stays green when the bat. are new and red only when i turned it off, havent seen the green light dimmed ..yet, i was told by audio technica support that you should always take the bat. out after using it, and you have to put the same pair of bat.back since bat. doesn't discharge/charge at the same rate.

Just learned something new about what Audio Technica told you. I always leave the batteries in the mics and I've never had a problem with it. You probably have a different model than mine. My mics have a red LED for power on that dims as the battery weakens.

the 2 that i have are Audio Technica Digital Reference DR-T260 which is comparable to DR2606 HH mics,and i forgot i also have a very old ( 5yrs. old ) audio tech. wireless ATW-T28 this one uses a 9v bat.

Yeah, the Audio Technicas I have are the ATW 200 series freeway mics and they use 9 volt bat. I use the rechargeables on the AKGs which use AA bat.

I use a Samson wireless with the Samson Airline module which will turn any mic into a wireless. Plug in a cheap radio shack for the drunk and a better mike for the serious minded karaoke star. The Airline module will make a wired shure, ev, or any mic wireless. Cost about $250.00
