This transmitter can use disposable AA batteries (alkaline or
lithium) or a Williams Sound rechargeable battery (BAT
026). We recommend using BAT 026 AA Ni-Cad or BAT 001
AA Alkaline batteries. BAT 026 batteries will last about 8
hours per charge when used with Williams Sound
Transmitters. BAT 001 batteries will last approx. 12 hours
when used with Williams Sound Transmitters. Batteries from
other suppliers may provide different operating life.
