JLab earbuds must be appropriately charged to optimize their performance and life span. If you notice the sound quality is performing poorly, it’s likely your earbuds need charging.

In this article, we’ll run you through a basic step-by-step guide to charging your JLab earbuds correctly, plus some troubleshooting tips and common questions answered. 

How To Charge JLAB Earbuds

  1. Ensure the earbuds are correctly seated in the charging case by lining up the charging contacts on the earbuds and case.
  2. Connect the charging case to a power source using a USB cable.
  3. Wait until the LED light on the charging case turns off, indicating the earbuds are fully charged.
  4. Remove the earbuds from the charging case; they are ready for use.

Alternatively, you can charge the earbuds by simply placing them in a fully charged case without an external power source. This will still fully charge your earbuds, but your case will require charging after.

It’s recommended to fully charge the earbuds before using them for the first time. The initial charging time may take up to 2 hours.

When the earbuds are fully charged, remove them from the charging case, and they are ready to use. The earbuds should provide up to 6 hours of battery life on a single charge.

How to Charge JLab Headphones

  1. Locate the charging port on your JLab headphones. This is usually located on the ear cup or the inline remote.
  2. Connect the charging cable to the charging port on your headphones.
  3. Connect the other end of the charging cable to a USB power source, such as a wall adapter or a computer.
  4. The LED light on the headphones will turn red when they start charging.
  5. Leave the headphones to charge until the LED light turns off, indicating they are fully charged.
  6. Disconnect the charging cable from the headphones and the power source.

How to Charge The JLab Charging Case

Jlab charging cases can be charged separately from earbuds by plugging them into a power source via a USB connection. Once the case is fully charged, users can place their earbuds into the charging case for simple charging on the go.

The Jlab carry case also comes with a light indicator to show users how much battery life is left on the case itself.

To charge your JLab case independently, follow these steps:

  1. Locate the charging port on the JLab earbuds case.
  2. Connect the charging cable to the charging port on the earbuds case.
  3. Connect the other end of the charging cable to a USB power source, such as a wall adapter or a computer.
  4. The LED light on the case will turn red when it starts charging.
  5. Leave the earbuds case to charge until the LED light turns off, indicating it is fully charged.

Common JLab Charging Issues (& Solutions) 

  • Check The Charging Connection
    One of the most common problems users encounter with charging devices is the charging ports. Small objects and dust can sometimes obstruct the USB charging ports, which can be checked and cleaned with a torch and a thin needle. 
  • Change The Battery
    Most electronic devices have a battery life with a specific amount of usable hours. Users should be sure to replace the batteries on their JLab earbuds if the battery is charging or loses power prematurely after charging. 
  • Check The Charging Source
    There are certain instances where the power source used to charge JLab earbuds may be too weak or incompatible. Users can test this issue by checking if their JLab charging case charges on alternative sources.

FAQ

How do I know if my JLAB earbuds are charging?

JLab earbuds are usually charged within their JLab charging case. The charging case carries an LED indicator to show users how much battery life has been stored on their device. 

How long does it take JLab earbuds to charge?

Manufacturers recommend charging brand-new JLab headphones and earbuds overnight before using them for the first time. Thereafter, most earbuds should take 2.5- 3 hours to charge fully. 

JLab Earbuds Won’t Turn On

If your JLab earbuds won’t turn on, follow these steps:

  1. Make sure the earbuds are charged. Connect the earbuds to a power source using the charging cable and wait for the LED light to turn on, indicating that they are charging.
  2. Try resetting the earbuds. Hold the power button on each earbud for 10 seconds until the LED light flashes, then try turning them on again.
  3. Make sure the earbuds are properly paired with your device. Check the Bluetooth settings on your device and try reconnecting the earbuds.
