How to Charge Wireless Earplugs Without Charger In 3 Easy Ways
As an audiophile and an admirer of immersive music, I am a big fan of Beats headphones for their excellent beats, sound quality, and comfortable earbuds. As a result, I have used several Beats headphones- mostly quality wireless Bluetooth headphones of Beats.
Most of the latest models of Beats headphones are now wireless. They come with a charger, but if you don’t have any, you don’t need to worry about its charging.
There are some other genuine and safe methods of charging these headsets that I have tried before. Therefore, I have made a comparison table of the 3 best alternative charging methods for Beats headphones without a charger.
| Methods | How Easy to Use | How Much Effective | Steps In Brief |
| Use a USB Cable | Quite easy | Very effective | Connect the USB port to your headset at one end and another end to the charging device or power source. |
| Use Your PC | Quite easy | Quite effective | Connect the data cable to your PC at one end and plug the other end into the headset. |
| Use a Power Bank | Very easy. | Very effective | Connect a USB port to the headset and plug another end into the power bank. |
🔌Use A USB Cable
I often use USB cables for charging my Beats headphones. It is easy and effective. If you lost your headphone charger or didn’t have the charger with you, you can use this method without any doubt.
But before I tell you the steps, ensure you have the right USB data cable compatible with your headset. Now, let’s discuss the steps!
However, the latest wireless beats headset models have additional USB charging cables. If you don’t have the charger of your headset with you or the charger is lost, in that case, these USB charging cables are very useful.

🖥Use Your PC
Yes, you can use your PC to charge your Beats headphones. In addition, a PC with even a 20% to 25% battery level can generate energy for other electronic devices.
I use this method to charge my Beats headphones; believe me; it won’t damage your headset or PC.
Tip
Don’t forget to check whether the USB data cable is compatible with your PC and beats headset. Always ensure that your PC has more than 20% of the charge backup and isn’t in the power-saving mode. In this case, you may first give a quick 10-minute charge to your PC first and then charge your headset.
However, it will take more time to charge your Beats headphones if you keep using them while charging. So instead, use your headset once the battery charge is full.
🔋Use A Power Bank
Power banks charge electronic devices like PCs, laptops, tablets, mobile phones, and headsets. I use this method quite often to charge my beat headset, and according to me, this is the easiest and safest method to charge a beat headphone.
For charging your beat headset with a power bank, you just need to follow these easy steps:
📱Can You Use an iPhone Charger to Charge Beats? [What About Other Chargers?]
Yes, if you have an iPhone charger, you can easily charge your Beats headset. I have used my iPhone charger to charge my Beats headset, and it works well.
Apple smartphones have several types of chargers, and not every type of iPhone charger (Chargers with lightning connector) is compatible with Beats headsets. For example, most of the old models of iPhones use a lightning cable for charging, which is incompatible with Beats headsets.
But most iPhone chargers now have type C USB charging plugs, which are compatible with the Beats wireless earphones.
So, if you have type-C iPhone chargers, you don’t need to worry about charging your Beats headset. Just use the charger just like you use the Beat headphone charger.
You can still charge your Beats headphones if you don’t have an iPhone charger. You just need to have a USB-C charger for any phone.
I recommend using the original chargers of the iPhone with USB-C charging ports and USB-C cable to charge your Beats headphones as it charges your Beats headset faster. However, if you don’t have an iPhone charger, other chargers will work and won’t damage your headset.
