The True Adaptive Noise Cancelling technology that is features in our CLUB ONE automatically adjusts noise-cancelling levels in real-time, 50,000 times per second to account for environmental ambient noises and personal attributes such as movement, hair and eyeglasses to deliver best-in-class Noise Cancelling and immersive sound in any environment.
With the help of Feedforward and Feed Backward microphones, the Adaptive Noise Cancelling technology which is a feature in our CLUB 950NC and CLUB PRO+ TWS, fully monitors exterior sounds picking up low-frequencies and neutralizing them before they reach the ear. The headphones generate a sound that's phase-inverted by 180 degrees to the unwanted noise, resulting in the two sounds cancelling each other out.
In addition, all headphones allow the listener to adapt or adjust the level of ambient noise through features like Ambient Aware and TalkThru.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback! -

It is not uncommon to have charging problems with True Wireless headphones. You may encounter that charging stops, does not start at all or that one of the ear buds suddenly switches on and begins the pairing process. This is almost always caused by dirt on the metal charging contacts. These contacts are vulnerable because they can easily be contaminated by sweat, skin grease, or ear wax. They are usually gold plated, but gold plating does not prevent surface dirt.
If you have charging problems, the first step is to always clean all contact points, on each earbud and on the charging case.
You will need: cotton cloth or makeup swab, cotton swabs and rubbing alcohol. Also a pencil with eraser for further cleaning.
Use a cotton swab with some rubbing alcohol to clean the charging terminals of the headphones. Rotate the swab and scrub lightly on each contact surface, then use a cotton cloth to remove any dust and cotton residue left on the headphones. It is important to perform this process periodically to keep your headphones clean, thus avoiding affecting the charging speed/quality.
Wipe the contact pins in the charging case with a clean cotton swab. The swab can be slightly moistened with rubbing alcohol, but it is important that the interior is completely dry before closing the box. Use the cotton cloth and wait for it to dry.
Repeat until the contact points are visibly clean, and charging should work as designed.
Try cleaning the contacts with the tip of a pencil and the eraser at the end of the pencil, the graphite and rubber can help to re-establish charging also.
This procedure can be performed on all TWS earphones and cases.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback! -
To charge the headphones, place inside charging case. While charging, both LEFT and RIGHT ear bud will display a sold red light. Once the headphones are fully charged. The red light will turn OFF.

You may recharge your earphones for another 40-hours playtime with the charging case. It takes 2 hours to fully charge the charing case.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

Because bluetooth cannot travel through water, the only Endurance model that is used for swimming is the Endurance DIVE model. The Endurance DIVE model features an MP3 player which allows you to listen to music under water without using bluetooth. Furthermore, only DIVE features a function lock, which prevents water from activating functions inadvertently. SPRINT and JUMP do not have this lock function, and will not work under water.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

It is possible to replace the ear pads, but there are details to consider. On Elite 700: The ear pads are held in place by a plastic plate with claws, and some of the claws will most likely break off when you remove the pad. You do this by grabbing under the edge where the fabric ends, then pulling hard outward. The claws will eventually let go, and some of them will break off, rattling inside the ear pod. The only way to get them out is to unscrew the speaker plate, lift it up, and shake out the broken-off claws. The new pads are simply centered over the speaker plate, and the claws pressed into the holes with a firm pressure. On Everest 700: The ear pads are glued into position with double-adhesive tape. Pull the old pads off with a forceful, steady pull, until the glue lets go. Remove the protective layer on the new pads, and carefully position them correctly before pressing home all the way around the edge.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback!

Three things to know about Bluetooth (BT)…
1. Pairing: Pairing is like creating a new contact in your phone’s Contacts list. You have to do a little bit of work to create the contact, but once you do, connecting with that person in the future is fast and easy.
Let’s put this in terms of phones and speakers (or headphones). Your phone needs to become acquainted with your speaker. This is called pairing.
NOTE: Throughout this article, we will talk about your phone. However, it applies the same to tablets, laptops, computers and any other Bluetooth (BT) source device.To get this started, you have to put the speaker into pairing mode. You may have to press a few buttons to make this happen. All speakers work a little differently, but generally speaking, follow these steps…- For most speakers, quickly press and release the speaker’s BT button. However, with some speakers you may have to press and hold the BT button for a few seconds. Most speakers make a noise or have a blinking LED to let you know they are in pairing mode.
If this does not get you into pairing mode, check your owner’s manual or look for an article pertaining to your specific speaker. - Go into BT settings on your phone. Search or scan for available devices.
- A list of available or discoverable devices will appear on your phone. Select your speaker.
- Two things have just occurred:
- Your phone and speaker are now paired.
- Your phone and speaker are now connected so that you can listen to music.
NOTE: Just as you can have many people in your phone’s Contacts list, you can have many speakers and headphones in your phone’s paired devices list.2. Connecting: Once you have paired, your phone remembers your speaker, and your speaker remembers your phone. However, the two must connect to play music through the speaker.Automatic Re-connection: Let’s say your speaker is at home in the living room, and you leave for the day. When you come home and are within range of the speaker, your phone will automatically re-connect to it (assuming it is turned on). You can press play on your phone, and the music will play though your speaker. Of course, if your speaker is off, you will need to turn it on first. NOTE: Some speakers make a sound when they re-connect.
Automatic re-connection does not always happen.- Some phones may not work like this.
- Someone else may have connected to the speaker.
- Perhaps you connected to a different speaker while outside of your home.
Manual Re-connection: If your device does not automatically re-connect, you can re-connect manually…- Go into Bluetooth settings on your phone and make sure BT is on.
- Select your speaker to re-connect and play music.
Some speakers allow several phones to be connected at the same time. Others allow only one at a time. Therefore, if you are unable to re-connect, it could be that some other phone is connected to the speaker. In this case…- Go into the other phone’s BT settings and disconnect the speaker or turn off BT.
- Then follow the steps above to manually re-connect your phone to the speaker.
NOTE: Do NOT Unpair or Forget the speaker in your phone’s BT settings, as this will require you to repeat the Pairing steps above.
3. Resetting: This is a drastic step and should only be done if the unit is not operating correctly. Do NOT reset your speaker every time you want to connect. Resetting erases all pairings to all phones. You would then have to Unpair or Forget this speaker from each and every phone, and start the pairing process all over again. Check your owner’s manual or look for an article with more detailed BT instructions on your specific speaker or headphone model.Was this helpful? Thank you for your feedback! - For most speakers, quickly press and release the speaker’s BT button. However, with some speakers you may have to press and hold the BT button for a few seconds. Most speakers make a noise or have a blinking LED to let you know they are in pairing mode.

Please note: this text concerns Lithium-Ion batteries only.
HOW TO CHARGE
If a charger (power supply) comes with your product, use the original charger.
If you have a device with standard charging socket (such as micro-USB plug that goes into the device, and USB plug that goes into the charger) use chargers with approximately 0.5 to 2.0 Amperes capacity. While you can get chargers with a capacity of 5 A or more, only use them if your device was designed to be charged with this much power. Around 1 A is fortunately close to what you can expect from the majority of computer USB sockets.
Charging should take place at between 5 and 45 degrees Celsius (41 to 113 F).
It is wise to charge only where you can observe the device, so you can stop charging if overheating should occur. A smoke alarm is a good idea if you want to charge while sleeping. It is also possible to use a safety bag, sometimes known as a LiPo bag, to increase safety. You simply put your device into the bag, then seal the bag and begin charging.
BATTERY LIFE
The life expectancy of Li-ion batteries is 500 to 1000 recharging cycles. You can expect full capacity until you have recharged about 500 times. From 500 to 1000 recharging cycles, capacity will decrease gradually, until almost no capacity is left, and the battery will need replacing, if this is possible and economical. Life expectancy is optimal when the battery is being used between 10 and 50 degrees Celsius.
WHAT NOT TO DO
First, never charge too quickly! This may damage the battery, and may even be dangerous, so do not use high-capacity chargers, unless your device comes with one as standard.
There is no memory effect in Li-ion batteries, so do not treat them like old Nickel-Cadmium types (which you had to run dry regularly).
This means that you should never run Li-ion batteries completely dry. Actually, this will damage the battery. Whenever you can, keep them between 20 and 80 per cent capacity, where they perform best. However, it is better to charge the battery to 100% capacity than to run it dry.
Never charge if temperature is at freezing point or lower (0 degrees Celsius, 32 F), since this will almost certainly damage the battery. Never carry out express charging (charging with high-capacity charger) if temperature is between 0 and 5 degrees and over 45 degrees Celsius, but only use a lower-capacity charger in this temperature interval. Do not place devices in direct sunlight at all, and never charge them in direct sunlight.
Never place the device that is being charged on a sofa, rug or clothing when charging. This can cause heat to build up, which can in turn cause overheating. Always place it on a flat, hard surface, where heat can dissipate quickly.
GENERAL BATTERY INFORMATION
Most rechargeable devices use Lithium-Ion (Li-ion) polymer batteries these days.
This type has high energy density, very low memory effect and low self-discharge.
You can find them in electric cars, golf carts, power tools and other applications, besides portable headphones, telephones and loudspeakers.
Various subtypes exist that have different strengths and weaknesses, depending on the chemicals and metals used.
Batteries gradually self-discharge, even if they are not connected to anything. Usually, you can expect a self-discharge of about 2% per month when the battery is new, and this may increase somewhat with battery age and temperature.
