Yes, they will function as ordinary headphones if the battery dies or, for that matter, if you turn the noise canceling function off.

If the battery runs out they will still play. The sound quality isn't quite as nice though.

They have a standard 1/8in headphone jack, so yes.Using headphones to go to sleep is dangerous because the cord can wrap around your neck. You may consider another option for bed.

They work like any other headphones, As long as it has a port for it they will work :)

Yes you can. However, they will need to be powered speakers (either AC or battery powered) as the signal from the headphone jack is low.

Yes they will work wired without power. However when using the Noise Cancelling feature they will use power from their battery. So if you were trying to use the Noise Cancelling feature with a dead battery you would be out of luck. Otherwise you can simply plug them into any source and listen away.

yes, but as long as no one else is talking. you will hear everything.i have two of them one in my pocket for back up. instead of thing to replace the battery right there.

Yes, you can replace the rechargeable batteries with regular alkaline or even heavy duty batteries. Just don't try setting the headphones on the cradle with regular batteries, it could damage them. Only use rechargeable batteries if you are setting the headset on the charger.

You CAN , but these are like professional headphones. So the cord will be long and lanky. The headphone quality is obviously very good , except for the huge cord. Just get adapter and you can do it..

These are great headphones. Although they are better for music since they have noise canceling. If you are willing to spend the money, then I recommend them. However, keep in mind that they need a AAA battery all the time. They won't work without it.

The headphones will work to play music if the batteries are dead or removed, you just lose the active noise cancelling capability.

Absolutely yes, you can. Plug them into the same mini-phono jack which you would use for audio output to a pair of good headphones, to an amplifier, or to a pair of powered speakers. This unit also has small cheap built-in speakers which you can use when you do not care about audio quality.

Nope. The battery is for the noise canceling feature. But can't run them without the noise canceling feature on.

I doubt if you can find just the headphones as a replacement. I had trouble finding them again because they've been discontinued and upgraded.

If the headphones take AAA batteries, you should be fine.... These are great batteries :)

YES...you have to remove the headphones from your head, turn them off and set them carefully on the recharging station which is on the top of the "tower/receiver". A small red light will glow if they are seated correctly and charging.

you can use them as headphones to listen, but you won't be able to use anything voice related.

The power for them is USB, so they can either be plugged in to a computer for power, or if you have a converter, you can plug them in to the wall. The headphone cord can be plugged in to pretty much anything that accepts it. I've used it on my laptop, my TV, and my phone.
