I'm shooting a show in the Southern California desert right now, and our PA's have taken to putting the fruit snacks in a cooler with the beverages to prevent melting. Talk about blessed!

Preordered an Apple Watch. Cancelled it three days later and put the money into some new Zax wireless. The struggle is real.

If you're looking for simplicity, Wendt X5's are still out there. For power go with IDX NP batts. One to power your mixer, one to power your receivers. Very light and should easily last you a day of the work you're describing, and durable enough to stand up to the beating they'll inevitably take in the van bouncing between location shoots. I also agree with ditching the quadpack, just because I'm in favor of giving myself the lightest rig possible.

I'm on a rental house rig for this run, but splurged and bought my own orca bag. I'm a big fan of the solid frame and the mixer lift. Much better than the beat up bag that came with the package.
