Q/A


"IsN't YoUr iPoD GoInG tO sHoRt CirCuIt WiTh tHaT BaRe CoPpEr WiRe!?!?": No, the wire is enameled and will not cause any short circuits.



"How Long does the Battery Last?": Expect over a week of continuous playback, approximately 48 hours with the Display turned on.



"How Long does the iPod take to charge wirelessly?": This is dependant on the size of battery in your device, expect it to take upwards of 10 hours with a 3000mah battery. Charging times may vary depending on coil placement.



"Will this work with my Airpods?": Yes, I've tested with my Airpods Pro and AirPods Max, the iPod works just like any other Bluetooth Device.


"I Can't Connect my Bluetooth device to my iPod anymore, what do I do?": You might need to reset your Bluetooth Module. Do this by turning it off, waiting a couple seconds and then switching it to RX mode. Then turn it on and off again, wait a couple more seconds and switch it back to TX mode. (You will need to open your iPod to do this)


"What sort of Bluetooth Range should I expect from my iPod?": Approximately 5-10 Meters using the transparent rear panel.
