A single battery charge delivers 6 hours of use.

Battery will recharge while power is on even if the speaker is in use.

administrators decided to implement several programs to encourage healthy lifestyles among their 21,000 students. They applied for and received the Carol M. White Physical Education Program (PEP) grant in 2005, which advocates that physical education improves the overall health of children. “As a physical education teacher, you are constantly talking loudly, or even yelling, to provide direction to your students,” explained Gwen Smith, the PEP Grant Coordinator for the district. “An amplification system allows our teachers to focus on instruction and the activity at hand, instead of trying to constantly catch the attention of students on the field.” MISD purchased a PowerPro (PA916A)

In addition, the PowerPro system allows educators and administrators to reach large audiences, such as during parent meetings and student assemblies, as the main speaker can connect wirelessly to other speakers on the same channel. “The quality of the units is amazing,” Smith concluded. “We are looking into purchasing units for our secondary schools soon. Overall, we feel that our initial goals have been met — we are helping our students to live healthy lifestyles.”
