Excellent product with a major design flaw
I initially purchased a G10 Relay, announced with 8hours+ of battery life.
However, my receiver was already flashed with the latest firmware from Line6, and in reality the battery life was around 1h30, which is way too short for my usage.
This relay in comparison provides a much longer autonomy.
May be not 8 hours, but 6 easilly, which for me is perfect as it's roughly the autonomy of my Amp's battery.
I hope that Line6 will not release a new firmware which will change this later....
- Works out of the box with Yamaha THR30 II Wireless without the need of the base
- The transmitter fits perfectly in a Yamaha YEV-104 and feel very light on the shoulder !
Edit : after less than 2 years of usage (read : plugged on a desktop and never moved in 2 years), the device is completely unusable.
The usb connector used to power the base is of very poor quality.
When plugged, the usb cable has a bit of free play, which is often enough to prevent charging the transmitter, or simply power off the base while playing.
When the base remains on, there is frequently electrical noise in the signal chain, which make the whole playing experience quite annoying.
Don’t waste your hard-earned money on this device, instead opt for the G10SII, slightly more expensive, but with dedicated power plug.

The USB power supply is a big mistake!
great product, use it every day, BUT! USB power socket is so "fragile" - if I move the USB cable a bit, the station loses power, so I need to move the plug into the socket a bit to get power. And it started after just couple of days of use. Extremely stupid solution.

Freedom!
This wireless kit has given me freedom I never knew I needed so much! Very easy to use! Love the auto cut off by just pulling the hack out… no need to mute etc! Battery life great and easily covers a full gig. Fits nicely on my pedal board!

Practical Wireless Solution
I am using this at home I have it mainly connected to an audio interface which is connected to my workstation for recordings.
It made my life easy as I can easily pickup any instrument and start recording straight away without messy cables all over my computer and other equipment.
I like that it can charge at the "docking station" so it won't be messy needing to charge for example two separate equipment.
Pros:
- easy to use
- good sound
- looks good on your desk

Better than its BOSS equivalent
For some time I had the BOSS equivalent, with two parts both requiring recharging. It is a huge bonus to only have to recharge one part but more importantly the signal transmission is so clean and warm. I feed mine into a TC spark boost which then goes into an EHX platform and the tone and volume is beautfully preserved, giving you all the sonic possibilities you need.

Doesn’t work for live shows
Kept cutting out on the live show. It says it has 15m range and the mixing table was less than 3m from the stage and we had to make a break to change to a normal cable as it kept cutting out all the time and it was really embarrassing. Maybe these ones without their own radio frequency can’t be used for live purposes, since people have smartphones and the venue has wifi going and all these things seem to disturb the connection between the guitar and the mixer. I am a professional musician and I felt EMBARRASSED using this on stage. If you want to use it around your apartment I’m sure that’s fine. I’m sending it back.

Great unit
Does exactly what I want it to do. Lets me wander around the living room without being tethered to the pre-amp.

Wireless!
It works perfectly. Whole my apartments.
Only cons is about USB charging, not the best choise, but it works fine.
Just in case: a had lost a signal in 1 meter from station, but than I found solution: turn off 2.4GHz WI-FI Router signal, and now it works perfect.
