Azden’s PRO-XD and PRO-XR Digital Wireless Microphone System transmitter and receiver components are powered by rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. While this has many advantages, the nature of lithium-ion rechargeable batteries is such that their capacity to hold a charge diminishes gradually over time. Unfortunately the batteries inside these transmitter and receiver are not user replaceable.
But we at Azden don’t want this intrinsic nature of the lithium-ion battery to be a limitation on the lifespan of your PRO-XD or PRO-XR system! That is why we are offering this battery replacement program.
If you are finding that your transmitter and receiver units are running down their batteries faster than when they were brand new, you may send the units to Azden to have them replaced by our technicians.

- Look in your inbox for a confirmation email with instructions on how to send your units.

This translates to approximately 2,475 use hours for the transmitter and 3,600 use hours for the receiver. Below is our general estimate of how long your system will last before one unit may need replacement, based on how often you use your system.

| Light | 6 years |
| Moderate | 3 years |
| Heavy | 1.5 years |
