The light beige Countryman E6i Directional Earset Mic, Medium Gain with Detachable 1mm Cable and 3.5mm locking Connector for Sky Wireless Transmitters is a vocal microphone with a soft, flexible boom that facilitates its adjustment for different users. It's built with a larger silicone rubber earpiece making it better suited for situations when multiple users share the same mic.

The E6i earset can be used on either ear for capturing audio and rejecting unwanted sound, feedback, or surrounding noise from stage monitors or nearby speakers in houses of worship, theater, and outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, directional E6i earset virtually disappears against the skin, so performers will forget they're wearing a mic. This version offers medium gain for very loud speaking, such as in theater performances and most vocals. Additionally, the earset comes with two pattern-changeable protective caps for maximum isolation and gain before feedback. This directional E6i earset's cable terminates to a 3.5mm locking connector for direct connection to Sky UT86P wireless bodypack transmitters.

The Countryman earsets are very small, lightweight, and the least visible headworn microphones.

The E6i is soft and highly flexible with a larger silicone rubber ear piece. When multiple users share a mic, the E6i is a great choice. The soft boom is durable and the flexibility makes it easy to adjust for different users.

The E6i's stainless steel boom is tough and can be bent and re-bent to fit different performers. It is highly resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps. The earset should always have a protective cap in place to keep sweat, makeup, and other foreign material out of the microphone.

The E6i earset's flexible boom is easily shaped right on the performer's face. Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. The directional earset protective caps adjust the pattern from cardioid to hypercardioid.

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a comfortable position for rejecting unwanted sounds. The directional E6i earset provides more isolation and is suitable for situations where there are loud monitors, extreme feedback, or environmental noise.

The included removable, quick-swap cable detaches from the actual earset, making it completely replaceable in the event of a short or break. The replaceable cable design makes upgrading wireless microphone systems easy as they are available in a wide selection of connections to accommodate most wireless transmitters.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. This needs 10A at 26V. Can the "CAME-TV 48V Power Station" (BH CA48VPWRSTTN) power it using two "Core SWX APEX 360" batteries?

A: You can use the SmallRig RC 220B Bi-Color LED Monolight with the CAME-TV 48V Power Station with Dual V-Mount Battery Plates. But the batteries need to be 14-16v not 26v with that and should be at least 10A.

Q: 2. Could this unit take the place of the Godox XProC TTL Wireless Flash Trigger for Canon cameras?

A: While this has the same radio signal as an XPRO C trigger, it can only fire a Godox flash wirelessly in order to obtain the exposure information to dial into your camera. You would still need an XPRO C or X1T-C trigger on the camera to shoot an image in your camera.

Q: 3. How long will 2 NP-F Batteries last on this at full power? (looking at NP-F960 NP-F970 Battery, 7200mAh)

A: Here are our approximations of run times for the Aputure Light Storm LS 60d Daylight LED Light (B&H# APLS60D) when run at maximum brightness (i.e. using 60W of power) with two fully charged and new Sony L series-type batteries of these common mAh ratings: 6300mAh = 1.4 hours 7200mAh = 1.6 hours 10050mAh = 2.2 hours

Q: 4. Does it come with a 7" reflector?

A: Yes, the SmallRig RC 220D Daylight LED Monolight does come with a Hyper Reflector.

Q: 5. What is the difference between Sekonic Speedmaster L-858D-U and Sekonic Speedmaster L-858D?

A: Both models are the same. The U designation refers to the meter being sold within the US marketplace.

Q: 6. This meter works with profoto b10 plus lights...? Thanks

A: You can use it with a B10, but it will not have direct control of the light.

Q: 7. which would you get, with or without the transmitter module? i have both PocketWizards and Flashpoint strobes. what are the benefits with and without the POCKETWIZARD transmitter module? what are the benefits with and without the GODOX / FLASHPOINT transmitter module? tell me more, tell me about the benefits with & without? thank you!

A: The transmitter modules may be purchased separately and swapped. Because you have both PocketWizard and Godox products, unfortunately, you will have to find workarounds to get both to trigger.

Q: 8. when you have a Godox XPro F TTL trigger on the camera but using the Sekonic to dial in the lights, does the trigger on camera automatically adjust, or reflect your changes you made on the Sekonic? Or do you have to hit some button on the trigger to reset/refresh every time? And if once you're shooting you notice one light needs to be dialed up or down, can you adjust from the trigger on camera and will the Sekonic adjust the value as well? Just wondering so that during a shoot it's not too confusing.

A: I contacted Sekonic regarding your inquiry. According to Sekonic, they state you will need to place the Godox transmitter in App mode. Go to [Menu], shoot and then select [App}. This would put the transmitter into trigger only mode so it will not effect the setting made by the Sekonic meter.

Q: 9. The Phottix Transmitter Module says it works with the Strato 2 & Ares 2 protocols, does this mean it wont work with Odin speedlight receivers and the Indra set to the Odin receiver setting?

A: Yes, it won't.

Q: 10. I have an issue with the L-858D-U with Godox transmitter kit. When I switch it on I get an error message, "Radio Transmitter Installed Cannot Be Used In This Meter". I have already sent a copy back for having the same issue. Am I missing an obvious set up step? As it is sold as a kit and the transmitter is already installed in the unit I am surprised that it doesn't work straight out of the box.

A: This is a known issue that will be remedied by updating the firmware.
