Hi Ian,
Yes, that’s the next task, as Amazon’s a go-to place for me, but first I wanted
to make sure I didn’t get one that could only be set up with a disk which had
graphics-based menus only. I did get one of those in the days of the final
throes of Maplin’s, and had to take it back.
Best,
Clive

It’s not something I’ve experienced Iain. Mind you, I’m not sure I’d know how
to check charge level in each one individually.

I am a great fan of AirPods. They are especially good for in bed use! However,
I am having a problem with mine in that the left Pod seems to be discharging
much faster than the right. This morning when listening, my left Pod went down
to 3% while the right was showing 71%. Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi Clive, as I only own and use Apple devices I haven’t tried the airPods with
anything else. The one advantage with them is that they have absolutely no
wires at all. People have suggested that this makes them easier to lose but
that has not been my experience as they stow very well in the charging case. In
more general terms, perhaps a search on Amazon would be a good starting point?

Thanks Ian,
Do those Apple Airpods assume or require the use of proprietary Apple devices?
In other words, if I pair it to my windows PC, will they work? The requirement
for a robust pair is that if the wires are too thin, I only have to forget to
pick them up once, and one of the cats will sever the wires, and I’ll be off to
buy another pair.
Thanks,
Clive

Hi Clive, I don’t have much experience across this range but I really like my
Apple airPods which I use for reading books with TTS and for listening to
music. I also used a pair of LG HBS 900 in-ear ones which pull out of a neck
band and retract back into it again when not in use but I found that eventually
the pulling out action put strain on the wire and eventually the connection
broke. It’s a shame because these served me very well until then.

Hi All,
Does anyone have any recommendations for a fairly robust model of in-ear
Bluetooth headphones, with accessible and usable controls. I have a set of AKG
over-ear Bluetooth headphones, but would like an in-ear se to take away on so
that I can put them on in bed and listen before going to sleep.
Thanks,
Clive
