11Mar $35 wireless Bluetooth Transmitter Receiver.
Just got home from the trip and found my next experiment in the post office box. On the left is a and on the right is a . I have to let them charge for about 4 hours before I can begin testing, but I’m hopping I can pair these two devices together as a very cheap stereo wireless unit. The package says that the transmitter has a range of 50 feet, so if I can get 20 feet out of it I’ll be very happy at this price.
It’s hard to tell from the first picture but these units are very small, not much bigger then a CF card. Each one has a built in battery that can be charged with the included USB charger and cable. The outside has a rubberized coating and a single button for operation. I have a few things I plan to try once I’ve got these units charged up. I will keep you posted as the project progresses.

Looking forward to what you have in your sleeve on this. for me it looks like it would work well for getting audio off the camera (to headphones) with my steadicam rig without being physically wired to it.
do you think that the little headphone preamp would work well with this?

That was one of the things I would like to try. Although It looks like testing might get pushed back tell next week. The first Bluetooth transmitter that should up was DIA and I have to send it back.

Have you eventually paired that devices? What was the result of your tests?

I just purchased a similar set of devices. It would appear that I have been able to sync them; but not only is there no signal through them, they are very noisy to boot. Hope to hear that your results are better.
