Q: How long does the battery last on 1 charge playing music?
A: It says 75 hours.
Q: does this have a microphone
A: Yes it does.
A: Yes the Ion Audio Sport XL is capable of playing a dynamic microphone (included) back while playing music. If the Rode microphone is a condenser mic, with an XLR cable that requires Phantom Power, then it will not work with this speaker, for both reasons--this speaker does not have an XLR port, nor does it supply Phantom Power. Although, If the Rode is a dynamic mic that has a 1/4" cable, then yes it should work fine.
A: Yes, see my review of a similar situation when we used it for our theme camp a few weeks ago.
A: Thanks for reaching out about this! You can press the center volume knob in to toggle whether the volume being adjusted is that of the microphone or the speaker itself. Try depressing the center button and turning that knob to adjust your microphone volume, and you should be all set!
Q: Does this item have wheels or a toting handle?
A: Yes it has both a handle and wheels
Q: how long do the rechargeable batteries last?
A: The Sport XL features a 75-hour battery! Note that batteries are tested in low use scenarios, and battery life expectancy will change dramatically based on the volume and features that are being used.
A: I was able to use while charging. But it definitely lasted all day with battery life to spare for me.
