Review: Ideal for flying with bluetooth headphones; a well thought out product - Why did I buy this product? Because I make international flights on a regular basis. For travel, noise canceling headphones are a must-have, but most are now bluetooth. Unfortunately, most cattle class seats have infotainment systems that only provide mini-jack outputs. Enter this device as the perfect solution! At least in my opinion. This device allows me to plug-in to the output jack on an aircraft without the inconvenience of wires. It has several domestic uses, specifically provided a bluetooth interface to older audio equipment, PC's that don't have bluetooth, and (some) tablets. Does it work? Yes, no reservations. Fully charged, the battery was only 50% drained at the end of a 10 hour flight to London from Phoenix, AZ. I used this device in conjunction with my iPad mini, the aircraft infotainment system and even my PC at home. Binding was fast and effortless. Recommend you read the instructions because although binding and unbinding is easy (and works) the unit itself has a minimum of controls and you need to know what you're doing! I really can't speak to quality or range, but at least up to around ten to fifteen feet it was working fine, and sound quality was excellent without drop-out or interference. Can I listen to music while the unit is attached to a charger? Yes you can. This was a worry for me, especially since I forgot to recharge before the return trip. So I attached to a USB-C power bank and absolutely no problem, throughout charging, the unit worked fine. BTW, many airlines seem to be banning the use of power banks on or onto their aircraft - just another nuisance to check on before you fly! Do I know how much power is left? Yes, there are 4 white LED's which tell you how much charge you've got on the device. The top-most illuminated LED flashes until the next level is reached or the unit is fully charged. Finally, can two people listen to the same audio? Yes, my wife and I watched a video on the plane, with both of us wearing Bose NC headphones in bluetooth mode. The unit provides two, simultaneous links so for me that was the final box ticked. Some widgets are hard to use, but this one is well thought out and easy.
Review: Great device and new must have for travel - Worked a charm! Glad I read reviews and chose this money saving option vs the highly marketed "name brand" version. I had no issues pairing these with the Shokz Open Fit Pro's. I did not have to unpair the ear buds from my phone. I used these on a 14+ hour flight with zero issues. On the way home, I used them for 20 total hours of flight time on 1 charge. No lag, no audio issues. Would buy again. The range was pretty good. A couple of times, I headed to the restroom and forgot to pause my movie. I got in that little plane cube and was startled to realize I was still listening to the audio from my seat screen. So, good range with no interference. Was honestly surprised how many people are still using the free and terrible plane earbuds.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works with other devices too
*by A***R on September 21, 2026*

Does a fantastic job with portable DVD players. I was worried it would sound bad but it sounds no different from devices with Bluetooth. It also works with mp3 players. I was confused in how to set it up but website was clear even down to the brand of headphones. Great little device
