Is the lithium battery easily replaceable? Can one take an extra battery along for long plane flights?

Don't know about the battery life the ear pieces broke on first use, I glued them on so now there is no movement adjustment available. They sound good though.

ive never replaced mine, i would try top find a usb connector with a battery. for the price of the headset i wouldnt make the hassle.

Short answer is no. I don't see any battery comportment in mine. But your flight has to be really long for the battery to finish. Even after the battery is dead you can still use it like a regular wired headset. Alternatively (I think) you can charge it using an external battery pack because the headset can be charged from a USB port.

It is not set up for exchanging batteries however you will need a precision phillip screwdriver to access battery. Too much usage of these screws will result in stripped heads.

I don't believe the battery is removable. It last a long time dough or plug wire in will not require battery use from headset

Yes the battery is replaceable, as long as you put the AA, rechargeable or not.

It depends on the airline and stewardess.i use it fairly often , but one air Canada flight ( newest plane) made me take out the battery.

The battery is replaceable if you can find a company who would still source such a battery. I found one online some years ago. There are about 7 screws that would be removed to open the bottom cover. Once the bottom was carefully opened, the battery would just unplug from a small connector on the main board. You could take that battery to a store specializing in rechargeable batteries to see if they can fashion a replacement. When the battery was new, the device would usually last through a whole day's normal use.

I've only had it for a week, so no battey problems yet. It lasts my whole 10-hour work day on a full charge. There aren't any instructions included abot replacing the battery, but it looks like someone else responded and said it IS user-replaceable. Li-ion should last for years, but good battery maintenance will help extend the life. For at least the first 10 cycles, I charge it fully, then drain it completely. Don't recharge when it drops to 80%, 60%, etc. The performance doesn't suffer at all even when it is almost dead. That should help you get the most life and best performance.

It has a battery but you may want to buy an additional 1 or more to extend your flying time.

The battery is built-in. It lasts an insanely long amount of time. I fly with it weekly for several hours per flight. I only need to charge it once a week or every other week. Charges via USB cable.

I own 2 of these quads and each came with one flight battery. Given an average 8-12 minutes of flight, I did go out and buy a couple of additional batteries to permit sequential flights with charged batteries. Enjoy!!

It is a rechargeable internal battery not replaceable. Battery lasts a long time, lithium ion I believe.

Yes, but keep extra charged batteries on a long flight...they go rather too quickly.

It's not replaceable, but offsetting that it seems to have good life.I've owned mine for about 1 year. I frequently travel for work, and for trips less than 5 days I charge this (and my Bosch electric for the rest of my face) and leave both charging cords at home. Even at home, I typically plug them in to recharge only once a week - that's a "best practice" that'll keep your batteries lasting longer regardless.Over time, by nature of Lithium Ion batteries, that charge life will degrade slowly over time - but they've built in enough capacity here to ensure long life.That may offset your concern about the battery being non-replaceable.

I have taken the extra battery, fully charged, on to planes in my carrying-on bag. I pack the charger in my luggage. I have never had a need for the charger during flight.

No, the Li-Poly battery should last much longer than that....the battery will shut down automatically at about 3 volts. Turn the copter off and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before charging and after charging before flying. Replacement batteries are available inexpensively but usually require soldering to replace.....

They're internal lithium batteries like an iPhone. I don't believe it is replaceable but you should get a long life from these batteries

3 'AA' batteries can replace the rechargeable battery. I keep 'AA's as back-up when I'm out and about with the units. They make Lithium 'AA's now that are supposedly the best for gear like this.

yes that should not be a problem. Plus then you have two batteries for long haul flights.

Hi, I do not think the battery is replaceable. I have about 250 songs on mine and I charge it about every 8 to 10 days. I only use it at the gym for an hour and a half every day. It does charge with the USB cable. Thanks, Pete
