When I got my Wireless Go IIs, they were not charged out of the box, so I charged them for a couple hours and turned them on. Or, at least, I tried to. The receiver turned on and worked just fine, but neither of the transmitters would do the same. I noticed when I plugged them in, the blue light would blink, and then immediately turn off after a half a second. I looked high and low for an answer, and the included manual did not provide one. Lost and about to return the mics, I emailed Rode support, and they gave me the answer:
1. Download and install the Rode Central app for Windows/Mac
2. Go to the app settings, and press the button that says "Factory reset"
3. The app prompts you to unplug all Rode devices, and then only plug in the one you want to reset (one at a time)
4. Factory reset both of the transmitters. It should also update them to the latest firmware version during the rest
5. Now the transmitters will charge.
I honestly did not think this would work. Usually, when the tech support line tells you to make sure your device is updated to the latest version, updating it never works or it's already the latest version. Turns out, my mics were literally two years behind on firmware updates. But, lo and behold, it worked. They instantly starting charging. Again, this is NOT information that is included with the package, it's something I and probably several other buyers had to figure out for themselves.
Other than that, these mics are fantastic.

These are great wireless accordion microphones
These work as accordion mics! Decent external wireless pickup mics for accordions are hard to find. Even though these are intended as lapel mics, they do the trick and sound good.The fact that the two transmitters go to a single receiver which requires no external power source is super convenient for many performance situations. You can use these with a battery powered amp/speaker and amplify your accordion wirelessly without requiring an electrical outlet at all – ideal for busking. The transmitters have a long range and can be used in strolling performances. In most cases, you will need an eighth inch to quarter inch adapter.For the keyboard side on a piano accordion, use velcro tape to attach one of the transmitters to the lower part of the grille, with the microphone pointing upwards. The high notes will be louder than the lower notes, but overall, the volume will sound more stable over the range of the keyboard than it would if you were to put the transmitter at the top facing down, or in the middle facing toward the keyboard.On the button side, thread a velcro strap through the clip of the other transmitter and strap it to the outer side of the bass strap, so the microphone is pointing upwards. Cut the velcro strap to shorten it if needed so it fits snugly around the bass strap.If you can find a black acrylic paint pen, I recommend painting over the blue lights on the transmitters; you’ll still be able to see the lights to know whether the transmitters are connecting, but they’ll be less glaringly bright on stage.You can use these mics for recording also, but it would only make sense to do so in a live performance setting. For studio recording, it would make more sense to use stationary mics.There are a few limitations to be aware of:1) You cannot adjust the input gain, only the output gain. If there is noticeable distortion, there is no way to turn down the input gain, you’ll have to find a way to mount the transmitters differently. When I play on the bass side, the receiver indicates that there is some distortion, but it’s subtle enough that it probably wouldn’t be noticed in a performance setting. The sound quality is actually quite good.2) You cannot adjust the volume of the two mics independently. If the keyboard side is too quiet, the only options are to mess with the EQ on the amp/speaker/mixer or to try adjusting the mic placement.3) These mics are omnidirectional, which I think is idea for this kind of setup, but you’ll have to be extra careful about feedback issues.I only just finished setting up and testing these mics, with guidance from a sound engineer friend. haven’t used them in performance yet. I will update this review if I encounter any issues. So far they seem like a great option for accordionists to know about.

CONS: The price (very expensive). At this price they should have provided more cords because if you want to film/record audio/use the mic with a phone, GoPro or computer extra TRRS, USB C or lighting adapter cords are needed to use the GO ii. Case is too small and won't fit all the items included (will only hold the 2 transmitters & the receiver).
Overall, I would highly recommend the Rode Wireless GO ii to others! 👍
