A microphone that you can connect via Bluetooth to any BT speaker or receiver (like a hearing aid) to make that speaker into a sort of PA system?

It seems so obvious that this should exist. But searching I seem to only find these stupid LLM generated articles, and microphones sold with its own speaker or its own receiver that you need to plug in to an aux input. Am I being stupid?

The latency is the issue here, it is very confusing for a speaker to have your voice amplified next to you with the latency a Bluetooth usually gives, compared to wired or other quicker transmissions.

Small wireless mics (like 2,4GHz) that output through minijack, into a "bluetooth" speaker with an aux cable is the most lightweight way to go, unless you just buy a small PA system.

"These wireless microphones simply operation, just connect to a karaoke machine, powered speaker, or amplifier to enjoy a high-quality audio"

I doubt whether a direct mic to speaker connection is at all feasible with BT

They just talk about recording or streaming online. And most of them also seem to require their own specific reciever. If you know of a specific product where the company making it says it can be used in the way I want to, I'd be grateful for a link or a name. Thank you!

But BT speakers and hearing aids and other recievers are everywhere, and so much more accessible

Seems interesting! But also seems just like a new protocol from the BT consortium (or whatever their name is), which I would think would not be necessary for the type of device I'm looking for.

Yes. Just search for "Bluetooth Microphone." There are hundreds.

Could that help your search?

Probaby doesn't exist. Not clear how such a product would extract your personal information so it how would it make any money? (/s)
