How to Use Yootech Wireless Charger with AirPods and Other Accessories

The Yootech Wireless Charger is designed to charge not only smartphones but also compatible accessories such as Apple AirPods, Samsung Galaxy Buds, and other Qi-enabled wireless earbuds or devices. However, since these accessories have smaller charging coils and cases made of different materials, correct positioning and setup are essential for efficient and safe charging. This guide explains how to properly use your Yootech Wireless Charger with AirPods and other wireless accessories.

1. Confirm Accessory Compatibility

Before placing your accessory on the Yootech charger, ensure it supports Qi wireless charging.

Compatible models include:
- Apple AirPods with Wireless Charging Case (2nd generation and later)
- AirPods Pro (all generations)
- Samsung Galaxy Buds, Buds+, Buds Live, Buds Pro, and Buds2
- Google Pixel Buds (2nd Gen and later)
- Other Qi-certified earbuds or accessories

If your accessory does not have a wireless charging case, it will not charge using the Yootech pad.

2. Prepare Your Charging Setup

Connect the charger properly:
- Plug your Yootech Wireless Charger into a Quick Charge 2.0 or 3.0 adapter for optimal power delivery.
- Avoid using low-output adapters (5V/1A), as they may cause slow or incomplete charging.
Use a quality charging cable:
- Use the USB cable that came with the Yootech charger. Poor-quality cables can result in unstable charging.
Ensure the surface is clean:
- Dust or metal particles on the charging pad or case can interfere with charging efficiency.

3. Proper Placement of AirPods or Earbuds Case

Correct alignment is crucial because the charging coils inside AirPods and earbuds cases are small and located in specific positions.

Steps for proper placement:

Place the AirPods or earbuds case in the center of the charging pad.
Adjust slightly until the LED indicator on the Yootech charger turns on.
- A green light usually indicates successful charging.
Avoid stacking items or placing the charger on uneven surfaces.
Keep metal or magnetic objects away from the pad, as they may interrupt charging or cause overheating.

If the LED indicator keeps blinking, reposition the case until the light remains steady.

4. Checking Charging Progress

Most wireless earbuds cases don’t show a continuous charging indicator on the Yootech pad, so you’ll need to check on the case itself:

Apple AirPods: The small front LED should light up for a few seconds when placed correctly.
Samsung Galaxy Buds: The case LED may turn red or orange while charging, and green when fully charged.

If your accessory has no visible light, check the Yootech charger’s LED for confirmation of proper connection.

5. Using the Yootech Charger with Multiple Devices

The Yootech Wireless Charger is designed for single-device use, meaning it can only charge one accessory at a time. If you own multiple Qi-enabled devices:

Charge your phone first, then your earbuds case afterward.
Alternatively, use separate chargers for simultaneous charging.

Never attempt to stack your phone on top of your AirPods or other accessories while charging, as it may block energy transfer and generate heat.

6. Charging Time Expectations

Charging smaller accessories such as earbuds typically takes 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on:

The case battery capacity
Adapter power output
The efficiency of the wireless coil

Wireless charging may take slightly longer than wired charging, but it offers the advantage of convenience and reduced wear on charging ports.

7. Avoiding Common Issues

If your AirPods or earbuds case is not charging, consider these troubleshooting steps:

Reposition the case in the center of the charging pad.
Remove thick or metal covers from the earbuds case.
Ensure the charger’s LED light turns on when you place the accessory.
Try another power adapter or cable to rule out hardware issues.
Clean the surface of both the pad and the charging case to ensure proper contact.

Most issues occur because of misalignment or interference from case materials.

8. Safety and Maintenance Tips

To ensure safe and efficient operation:

Keep the charger in a cool, dry place to avoid overheating.
Avoid charging on metal tables or surfaces that trap heat.
Unplug the charger when not in use for long periods.
Do not place credit cards, RFID cards, or magnetic objects near the pad while charging.

Routine cleaning and correct usage will help maintain optimal charging performance over time.
