Do these use batteries in the headset unit, or are they charged by a cable? My current headsets are charged and always die halfway through meetings.

I bought these for my kid and he used them constantly until the cat chewed through the cord. I don't recall any batteries being used, I can check with him later.

This headset doesn't require batteries since it's a wired headset. There is not charging required. It has two 3.5mm headset jacks that handle the audio and the mic. It's one of the wired standards for PC headsets.

This is a wired headset not wireless. They don't have wireless capabilities.

They're wired via a 2 3.5mm audio 'jacks' (one for mic and one for headphones), so technically powered by the audio source (be it a mp3 player if audio only or the PC they're connected to etc)

Have you tried using your headset, after you unplugged it? Because it doesn't take days to charge it? If its not working then your head phones are dead. Because my headset did the same thing.

The battery is not replacable - at least it's not accessible in anyway that I can see. I understood when I bought it that once the rechargeable battery stops charging, it's time for a new headset. It is charged by plugging it in to any USB port. In my opinion these are great headphones for the price. Even though I'll have to replace it eventually (3-4 years??) I could buy 4+ of these for what I'd pay for other headphones. They're not noise cancelling but the sound quality is excellent.

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

I don't know. Quite frankly, these headsets were so unreliable because of its quirky, inconsistent USB port, I've stopped using them. Your experience might be different. Mine was different EACH time I "powered" on the headset.

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.

The headset comes with a usb 3.5mm headphone cable . You simply plug the cable into a usb port and charge for about 30 minutes for a 4 to 5 hour battery life. Hope I helped (:

The glasses do not come with a USB cable and are not rechargeable. They do take small lithium batteries and you get about 5 batteries for each pair of glasses. To date, we have not had to replace any batteries and we've had the glasses for about a year and a half. Also, you only need to have the glasses on when your watching a program in 3D. I hope this helps.

The hand held devices are charged by a re-chargeable battery. The base acts as a charging station, which means that when the hand held sets and headset sit in the base they're charging. There is no rechargeable battery in the headset. It simply charges by the base.

Hookup is simple: Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet and into the device. Connect the audio in of the device to an audio out jack on your TV. The rechargeable batteries hold a ten-hour charge after charging the headset in the stand. I store mine in the stand so it's always charged. The batteries are replaceable when and if that becomes necessary (I've not had to) and should be available in any store that sells rechargeable AAA batteries. There are three buttons on the headset: clearly labeled On/Off, Volume, and Tone; their functions and use are self-explanatory. Enjoy.

Technically No.......unless your charger cord is very long. I usually have my spare traditional headsets, if I'm listening for longer than a couple of hours because you need to be prepared once you get the second "battery is low" message. But, they charge back up pretty quick. Hope this helps.

Yes, the head phones are rechargeable, they come with a USB cable to charge them with. I usually charge mine for ~2 hours and can easily get 8 hours of listening time out of them. When I don't use them much I can get by with charging them every 3 days.

I believe the batteries will be in the ear piece. In the pair (of another brand) I have at home, if you pop the foam earpiece off, there is a battery inside each one.

Batteries required for headsets (either AA or AAA-I don't remember) and 12-volt battery for transmitter can be found on amazon or any hardware store ($20) and would have to be replaced eventually. I would sooner recommend the ones I finally purchased on amazon- Unisar TV Listener J3 - the transmitter plugs into AC outlet; headset comes with rechargeable batteries

Bill, The question you asked is the reason I bought the ear phones.They work great and I discovered yesterday that the batteries can be used for many hours without losing strength.I used them for several hours on one day and forgot to put them on the charger. I used them again, the next day, without a charge for several more hours without losing power.

There is a rechargeable battery that comes with the headphones. It's non-standard (i.e. not AA or anything you can just buy at the drug store). You can buy an extra, search for the Sennheiser BA 370 PX Accupack Replacement Battery for PXC310 Series
