We ship all of our ANR headsets with a set of demo batteries to get you flying quickly. You should experience approximately 20 hours of battery life from alkaline batteries with typical general aviation aircraft noise. Battery duration may vary with battery age, ambient noise levels, temperature, and use of the AUX and Bluetooth features. If the ANR powers down unexpectedly or the light flashes red or amber, this is an indication that the batteries should be replaced. Adding a fresh set of Energizer AA batteries will resolve this issue. We recommend Energizer as we've gotten the best performance from the Energizer brand.

PJ-055 / PJ-068 plugs are standard general aviation twin plugs found on most general aviation headsets. The PJ-055 provides audio to the ear cups and the PJ-068 is for your microphone. These plugs will work in almost all civilian and commercial airplanes.

Turn off the “Auto-shutoff” function. The switch is located inside the battery box. See figure 11 in the photo below.

Most 737 aircraft in the US use standard GA twin plugs. There are 737's that use different plug types such as XLR but It really depends on what options were selected by the airline when the aircraft was ordered. You will need to verify what plugs are required for the specific aircraft that you will be flying. We have Aviation Headset Adapters for most plug types so you will be able to use your headset in the 737 regardless of type of plug on your headset.
