Klvr Charger Pro offers pro AV a rechargeable alternative to disposable batteries

The introduction of professional-grade rechargeable battery solutions addresses a long-standing operational challenge in live events and pro AV. This offers immediate cost savings and workflow efficiencies by reducing reliance on disposable batteries, which have inadequate voltage and reliability for professional use. As the industry increasingly focuses on sustainability and operational optimization, expect more venues and production companies to evaluate these types of solutions. Watch for adoption rates and long-term performance data from early implementers, particularly in large-scale event production.

The professional audio visual (pro AV) industry continues to seek solutions that address both operational efficiency and environmental sustainability, a trend highlighted by Klvr's Charger Pro launch at InfoComm 2026. Prior to this announcement, Klvr launched its rechargeable battery system in the US market, as reported by AVNetwork in May 2026. This expansion was aimed at live entertainment and pro AV sectors, with distribution partners including MBH Solutions and The Penn Group. Installation International (February 2026) also noted Klvr's planned demonstration of the Charger Pro at ISE 2026, emphasizing its benefits for sound engineers and AV professionals in music venues, studios, and educational institutions.

Industry feedback has focused on the financial and logistical burden of disposable batteries. Alpha TV, a Greek broadcaster, reportedly replaced 20,000 disposable batteries annually with approximately 400 Klvr rechargeable units, resulting in significant savings and reduced waste (TPi Magazine, February 2026). Similarly, the Norwegian Radio Orchestra (NRK) integrated Klvr's system into its operations to ensure reliable power for over 60 wireless IEMs (Klvr.no). These real-world applications underscore the demand for rechargeable solutions that deliver consistent voltage and extended runtime, which traditional consumer-grade rechargeables often fail to provide in demanding professional environments. The ability to monitor battery status and inventory across multiple locations, via systems like Klvr Control, further streamlines operations for organizations with distributed setups, per Nick Jenkins of Rock City Church. This collective industry shift points towards a broader adoption of sustainable power management practices in pro AV.
