Do you charge the headset with it's power on or off? thanks

Hi Tony. My husband says he charges with the headsets off, just make sure the base is plugged in the electrical outlet. One headset lights up red to show it is charging, the other green. When lights go out they are charged.

Not sure if this rule is written in stone somewhere, but we turn them off when charging.

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.

Instructions say to leave it on. You may use the speaker while it is charging.

As I remember the device gets its power from the PC through the USB cable. I had to use a USB extension cable and found that with the extension cable the PC supplied power wasn't sufficient so I used the power supply from my old Plantronics headset. Other than that it works great. Very pleased.

No. You can't use it while charging the battery... you need to put the headset in the dock to charge.

As long as the power cable is plugged in, it *should* charge. When not plugged in to my computer, my USB headphones do not power on; though this could be because they require drivers to work. It does charge my phone without being connected to my PC, though.

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.

Yes, the batteries charge while in the headset. The left ear piece MUST be set into the charger/stand on the left side. When charging, the red LED light on the front of the charger/stand. When charging is complete, the LED will go out.

Hello,,I have bought two of these units and your headset plugs into the unit, then you plug the units cord into the phone. The unit boosts the volume pretty well, for the price,,and uses button batteries. I like mine well.

The light stays on until the headset is turned off. If you answer a call by engaging the headset and then end the call using buttons on the phone, the headset remains engaged which keeps the indicator light flashing and the battery usage still going. But I still like the headset.

Sorry. I don't have a definite answer. I would make sure it is charged up and ghat the power source is pointed towards the headset.

The headset is powered by a cord using the Xbox One usb port. It has a permanent rechargable battery.

You should've rec'd a charge cord with your headset....if not order the charge case. I love mine!

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.

It comes with a fairly long cord that you plug into the headset and then plug into a USB port, and it charges like that. You can charge it while you use it.

It won't charge if it is fully charged. The headset has a lithium battery, so no problems with overcharging and its attendant memory effect. However, do not overcharge the carry case, since it does have a NiCad battery tech that suffers from memory effect.

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.
