most accurate with the typical voltage drop across the 

life of alkaline batteries.

Rechargeable batteries give little or no warning when 

nearing depletion. If you use rechargeable batteries 

in the transmitter, we recommend trying fully charged 

batteries first, noting the length of time that the batter-

ies will run the unit, and in the future using somewhat 

less than that time to determine when the battery 

needs to be replaced. The Venue and other receivers 

from Lectrosonics offer a timer function to assist in this 

process.
