Rio Rancho, NM – April 1, 2012… Lectrosonics, recognized the world over as a leading manufacturer of wireless microphone systems and audio processing products, is pleased to announce the introduction of a new key accessory for the company’s highly regarded SM Series dual-battery transmitters: the SM-SHAQUE (“SM Shake”). This new accessory is installed in the SMDB or SMQV transmitters as a battery eliminator and incorporates a small generator that is operated simply by shaking the unit.

The SM-SHAQUE’s tiny generator uses a finely wound wire coil and a powerful Neodymium ‘rare earth’ magnet in order to take advantage of Faraday’s principal of generating electric current by passing a moving magnet through a coil. The rarity and supply challenges of these magnet materials have already pushed back the originally planned delivery from October 1, 2011 to April 1, 2012. more
