do you have to be connected to an outlet while wearing these bands?

Yes, you do have to be connected/wired. No wireless yet, unless you're barefoot on the ground.

Yes, the bands have to be connected to a grounded source of energy in order to transfer the free electrons into your body. The bands are designed to transfer free electron energy from a grounded outlet via the supplied wires. You could also use the grounding rod which is meant to be probed into the soil outside and transfer the earth's natural free electrons into your body using these bands and the provided wires however I would say the bands are a concept that is more appropriate to utilize energy from a grounded outlet in your home or office.

Yes, please follow the How To Guide come with the package. You have to connect the wires included with the package to the ground port of an outlet. Before doing it, you have to assure your outlet is grounded by using the included outlet checker.

It would be very easy to add an inline switch to this if unplugging is too much work for you. LOL I doubt your benefiting from your workout if the plug is too much work for you.

You can. I recommend having shoes on with an indent on the sole to place the band.

You can hardwire them, or plug them in. I have mine hardwired, but you need to keep that adapter that comes with it. So you have light --&gt; adapter --&gt; hardwired. Or you can do light --&gt; adapter --&gt; plug into outlet.

No. At least I have never heard it with the ones I have. But remember, these are being discontinued. I have been using them for years, primarily because they are NOT distracting and just do what they are supposed to do. I'll miss them when I wear out my last set.

Yes Chris, they plug directly into the wall and have an on and off switch at the top so you don't have to unplug to turn them off.

No, no turn on or off - you just plug them in and they heat up, unplug to shut off.

Yes, they do need to be on to charge. Turn them off when they will not be used for awhile.

I have left mine connected without being plugged in for a few hours without a problem. But I don't know about permanently I have never done that.

No, but they can be operated via their included battery. The trade off is you can't "daisy chain" or "network" them together so they all chime if one goes off.

Yes, you can. They are quite comfortable with the chord behind your neck. I actually wear them that way because I look as I if I am wearing an elevated necklace when I have the chord in front of my neck. One little caveat though, I've noticed that when there's some sweat at the back of your neck, it creates a bit of friction. So when you turn your head to the left or right, the chord doesn't move smoothly, and hence it sort of tugs at the earpiece. However, rest assured that the earpiece doesn't fall off.

Yes, each unit requires an outlet.Very pleased with this system. We purchased 4 and use them upstairs and downstairs with great reception.

No. They are wireless receivers and can operate off of batteries or can be plugged in to an outlet. I have mine on my patio and the wireless through my TV in the house and they work awesome!

No they do not, however a 3.5mm mono extension cord could be used. Some frequency loss could be experienced. Hope this helps.

Yes. They are touch activated and will "turn off" after a minute or so of no activity.

No, you need an outlet or extension cord. I love these lights, so perfect in our gazebo.
