(the buzzing) smile

I've mostly dealt with battery powered mics when working on musicals; the transmitters for the actors lavalier mics. I indeed use standard non-rechargable batteries for that. But that's mostly to cut down work and expenses.
For consumer, home usage I see no problem using rechargables. But we all have different likings of course. smile

I can agree with that. big_smile

Never had a problem as long as we use a decent charging pattern (which is hard for theater). I've had even better luck at home with eneloop type batteries than with the more normal Energizer ones we have at work.

Besides, I'm just really not willing to use normal batteries in my GBs as I don't really consider it an option to generate that much garbage as a result of my art.

The ac psu plugs into the battery pack and doesn't use the onboard plug. I got one from nonfinite.

Any voltage in the range 5-7 V DC will work fine. The trick is to find one with the right size that is also DC and center negative. If you find a plug of the right size, you can always repurpose it with a suitable transformer.

The hum is annoying but ultimately harmless. Unless you're recording and want a clean sound, of course.

So I don't. I just buy batteries in bulk from a local pro audio place. I pay like 13 cents on the battery. I'd rather have a fresh pair than deal with flakey rechargables myself.

I didn't get any hum with using a $15 radio shack'ish one. I've heard about people getting it though.
