Does the headset turn off when you return it to the charger or does it continue to use the battery while it is charging?

Unless you switch the on/off to off, the headset would continue to use the battery while charging. When not in use, I turn the switch to the off setting and hang the headset onto the charger.

On/off switch allows you to control operation at any time. Charging is simple and basically automatic when on charger/transmitter. Great headset. Enjoy.�

Does not auto turn off, so I assume it will use battery. Easy to turn off before returning to cradle.

As like anything else that doesn't have an auto shut-off, Yes, it will continue to use Power while charging at the same time!Always remember to turn it off!It will still charge, but, it'll take quite a bit longer with it on than off!I hope this clears things up for you.

This is a rechargeable headset. Can't remember whether there are rechargeable batteries in there (I assume there are), but I use the headset for maybe two hours a day and always replace it on the charger. Really like it.

there's a small port on 1 end of the unit. There is also a charge indicator light inside the unit which can be seen through the smoke colored lit. On the and next to the charge in port, there is a button to enable charge into the headset. This way you can charge the headset or just use the case for storage. It's a fantastic device! I hope this helps.

Hi Gregory --- As I remember, there was one (1) battery with the headset, but I also ordered two (2) spares at the same time. I have found that one full battery will last for about 2 hours. I always have my other two spares mounted in the transmitter which keeps them fully charged. This process has worked perfectly for me, and the headset does a great job of dealing with my slowly increasing deafness. God's blessings. Larry Dube'

I haven't really payed much attention to the time to recharge, but it hasn't been a problem. My problem with it is that sporadically it quits and I have to turn it off and turn it back on. When this happens it does it repeatedly, typically till I get frustrated with it and stop using it. It only seems to do this when I am using it in a vehicle, plugged into the radio from the earplug jack. I have been charging it from the computer USB port.

Mine does not seem to do this and it is very annoying. I use it primarily as a headset for Google voice and Skype calls. If I forget to turn it off and it drains down the battery, when I try to use it I cannot just plug it into a charging port and be on my way. It has to recharge first, then I disconnect it from the charger.

It does sound like a battery problem. Make sure you have the charger plug pushed into headset completely when charging.

I know that the PS3 controller batteries have to be changed out at some point of use. You'll be able to tell when they won't hold a charge like they use to. I'm thinking that I am having this issue with this headset now. I've had it for a couple of years and the kids use it all day and night so I know it gets it's use. So I'm checking around reviews and whatnot to see if this is my issue with the headset... I've tried new cords just in case there is a short in the wire but a new wire doesn't make a difference.

There is a charging indicator light on the headphone unit. This light will turn off when the item is fully charged.

I would say on average it takes a few hours for a full charge. There is a red light to indicate charging and this light goes out when the headset is fully charged.

The charger is very quiet. I don't remember if it goes off when it's done charging, it's that quiet.

The Boosteroo I just received has an on/off switch; it is battery-operated. I leave 2 headsets plugged into it at all times and never have to unplug anything.

This was purchased for my Mom. The battery is specific for the headset and rechargeable. Always leave it plugged in. Perhaps you have the headset sitting in the charger backwards? When the headset is placed in the charge, red light comes on. Hopefully this helps.

Be sure the head set is turned off. Will not change or charge if head set left on!!

No, you need to charge the unit. When fully charged you can use it for 10 hours or so.Then place it back on the charger when done and it will resume charging.It is a great headset.

When you charge the device, it will be automatically turned off...you have to reconnect it after it is being charged!

It can when you plug it in (at the rear of the headset) it turns off turn it back on and it will work very uncomfortable
