They're designed to work, even while they're charging. If you turn them off, as soon as you plug them in, they'll switch back on. Not sure, but I think the charge time is about 2 hours. I absolutely love mine. I've had mine for about two years as well. ----- Original Message ----- From: "yvonne oliver" <[email protected]> To: "screen access software with skype" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2010 5:14 PM Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] question regarding skype wireless headset
hello apologies for locking on to this thread but i also have a question re cordless headsets from skype i have the freetalk wireless stereo headset model unknown but might be the freetalk 70 my question also reflects on charging and charging time i have had these for almost 2 years and obviously they had their first time charge a long time ago although they work fine and are clear on modulation and sound receiving i am wondering about charging them up when i get the warning beep i plug the charging cord in and leave overnight when i get up i expect there to be no sound coming from the headset but there is just like i had left them switched on all the time without charging is this normal? should they be on when i get up? and as this happens does this mean they did not charge? just how long is the charging time for these and is there any way of knowing when they are charged or even if they have charged or not? if the answer is yes they will switch on automatically after charging then all is ok there. but how long do they normally take to fully charge? thank you Yvonne ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lyn & Twinny" <[email protected]> To: "skype English" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2010 5:32 PM Subject: [Skypeenglish] question regarding skype wireless headset > Hi everyone, > I am not sure this is exactly on topic so please, could anyone email me > off list to answer the following question to avoid cluttering the list > with unnecessary posts. > > I would like to know if anyone on the list has bought the latest wireless > Freetalk 5192 headset from the skype shop?
