And if you have the budget you might consider the rode wireless go ii. There may be times you want to record a conversation without being close enough for clean shotgun mic sound and the internal backup recording is a life saver.

The battery life is not what I was expecting

I was super excited to get the Rode wireless Go and it was super easy to set up. However, super disappointed in the battery life of the transmitter. I literally have it plugged in all day and with minutes of use it says the battery is already low and near the ends. This makes no sense to me.
