About the Shure 95A22398 AA Battery Carrier
The Shure 95A22398 is a specialized AA battery carrier designed to provide reliable and secure DC power to Shure bodypack wireless transmitters, such as those in the ULX-D, QLX-D, and SLX-D series. This accessory replaces standard disposable AA batteries with a rechargeable power solution, offering both economic and operational benefits for frequent users of wireless microphone systems. The carrier is engineered to fit seamlessly into the battery compartment of compatible Shure transmitters, maintaining the device's original form factor and ergonomics. By enabling the use of rechargeable batteries, it helps reduce long-term battery costs, minimizes environmental waste from disposable cells, and ensures that performers and technicians always have a freshly charged power source available, contributing to more predictable and sustainable show logistics.
Constructed from durable materials, the battery carrier features a hinged door and internal contacts designed for positive connection with the transmitter's power terminals. It is intended to be used with standard rechargeable AA NiMH batteries, which are inserted by the user. The carrier itself does not contain charging circuitry; the removable batteries must be charged externally using a standard AA battery charger. This design keeps the carrier simple, reliable, and cost-effective, while allowing users to maintain a rotation of charged battery sets. For optimal performance and transmitter compatibility, it is recommended to use high-quality, low-self-discharge NiMH batteries to ensure consistent voltage delivery and adequate runtime.
The implementation of this battery carrier is part of a professional approach to wireless system management. It allows sound companies, broadcast facilities, and theater productions to standardize on rechargeable power across their fleet of transmitters, simplifying inventory and reducing the risk of show downtime due to dead batteries. When used with properly maintained batteries, the Shure 95A22398 carrier provides a stable power supply that meets the transmitter's requirements, ensuring full functionality and audio performance. This accessory represents a practical investment for any organization seeking to enhance the reliability and operational efficiency of their Shure wireless microphone systems through reusable power solutions.
