I originally got my first microphone from a vendor down here in my area, but I have since gone on to other things. I do still use his idea in how to use my chair to power a 9 V battery source. Since this is proprietary, I would rather go entirely private to show you this, but he kind of owes me since he took a couple of my ideas and is now marketing them at a significant markup. Let me know if you or anyone else is interested and I will get a few pictures posted where you can ask permission to look at them.
BTW, the inexpensive mic didn't work out for me, but it might work out for others. It seemed to shift a little bit throughout the day, but if one has gross movements they might be able to reposition it easily enough to continue on without any difficulties. I just don't have any movement and this particular microphone isn't feasible. I am, however, utilizing the wireless transmitter/receiver as a backup until I can find a reasonably priced noise canceling microphone that is not a over the head headset. I also have problems with the ones that wrap around the back of the head. I am just too spoiled. Quadius On 4/21/07, Dan T <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Quadius, thanks for the info and I am interested in learning more. How are you tapping into the extra power from your chair? is it from gimpgear.US?

The only problem I am having now is that my rather inexpensive, noise canceling, earclip microphone seems to move a little too easily for my liking. I may end up having to purchase a more expensive model, but right now everything works pretty well. I am lucky enough to have the ability to power the system from my chair and this negates the need for a 9 volt battery. If you're interested, I could show you some of the things I have later, but it seems that the less expensive microphones do not have the extensive noise canceling feature to which I am a custom. It is, nonetheless, better than my backup microphone and it does not lose synchronization like my Plantronics occasionally does.
