Just three years after it stopped being used at all due to last year's pandemic, this mic stopped working. I've tried using it but it looks like the Shure connector has built up internal rust which is preventing the pins from working. During all this time, the device was properly stored. I used it less than 40 times total in the first 18 months and then it was in its proper packaging, sealed from dust and moisture. It must be the poor quality of the materials that is causing the metal parts to rust. I think I put an extra Asurion coating on it so I'll be asking for my money back.
