Can these headphones be used while charging, or is it one of those that you can't use while charging?

When you connect the charging cable to the headset, the headset powers down and disconnects the Bluetooth connection.You can attach the audio cable to the headphone jack of an audio device to list to music while charging, but it's a bit weird having two cables plugged into the headset. Also keep in mind that the charging cable bundled with the headset is very short (about two maybe three feet) so don't expect to go very far.

Just tested it out no and no, they don't play and charge simultaneously. Sorry for the bad news.

As most electronics go, even if the device will play while charging, it is never good for the battery life to use the device while charging.

they charge in the cradle. no problem. downside, if you are hearing impaired like me, they don't volume up very high. I have to use them at peak volume but I am a hearing aid wearer so they may be fine for others. also, unlike my Sony's they must be turned on for every use....very small button for this and volume control.

I dont believe so - the only cable that comes with it is a usb to micro usb for charging purposes - I do not think that you can use these headphones except for use on bluetooth devises

You absolutely can use the pack while charging; I do it all the time with both Iphone 5C and Aftershoks charging. Too bad the other answer was so mean-spiritted and just plain ugly. Enjoy the pack!

Should be able to, just plug in headphones instead of speaker while charging.

I called the company. They said it was possible but not recommended. Whenever we not using, we leave them on the charger. I also asked the company if this would hurt the battery and they said it would not. This works well with our headsets.

1) I'm not sure if works while being charged but I suspect that it does. The charging cable is VERY short and inconvenient so you probably can't wear the device while charging. 2) Yes you can add your own headphones. I use mine with a short-cord headset -Halo Rhythms. They have good sound but the cord is about 2 inches too short and restrictive, at least for my big head.

Hi Pete! Maureen here from The Friendly Swede! Apologies for the late reply! The answer is no. They are not made for audio use, they are charging/syncing cables made for iPhone, iPad, etc.. Let me know if I can be of more help here at this link:

The headphones need a miro USB cord for charging. You can get a micro USB to standard USB cord along with a plug that accepts a standard USB port and that should work.

You can keep them in the charger when not using them. Or, at least I do and they still work!

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

I'm not sure if these work while are charging, I suppose these does. But these do not have any "sleep" mode. Only ON and OFF mode.

So why do they have to be charged if they are not wireless? What happens if they are not charged? Can you explain, Why must I charge these headphones?

No, bluetooth devices generally can't be used while charging. Like any BT device I've ever used, you get a red light while charging and can't use the functions. On the bright side, it charges in about 15 minutes with a 1A (standard smartphone) charger, however, as it's 250mA battery capacity.

I have never tried using it while it is charging. I wouldn't recommend it at all because the horror stories I have read of people using their cellphone devices while they are charging. That my also be the same with using a Bluetooth while it is charging.
