Cheap bluetooth headphones / converter

r19 · Nov 2, 2020

Need as cheap as possible BT headset or (preferred) something with a jack that you can attach a headphone to and turn it wireless. Not for me, quality only needs to be OK for occasional TV watching. battery life around 3hrs is ok I think, or even the normal battery ones. Should be somewhat reliable

Ok thinking of getting this https://www.amazon.in/Infinity-Glid...07W5MZY9J/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 . Can't find anything cheap to make a headphone wireless. Any other suggestion?
Also the 1000s of results that are just duplicates of Chinese prodcts with similar sounding brand names bought from alibaba make browsing confusing

I think what you need is a bluetooth receiver.

Most of the devices are for car use (receive bt and output aux) and need external power (like plug into any car usb). Some of them have internal battery to run standalone. Found a few bluetooth receivers on amazon, some of them are even dual mode (receive and transmit as per your use, via a toggle).

I hope this matches your needs. Posting some links. Few results from searching bluetooth receiver.

These don't have a battery, the ones with normal reviews are also too near to BT headphones in price

Won't those cheapo BT receivers used in cars work? My old crappy car doesn't have BT. I bought a very cheap BT receiver, it sounds shitty, but does work.

charge lasts for 12 hours but ya, costs around the same as a bluetooth headphone.

The ones with battery seem pretty costly, maybe I should go with headphones only? Are there any OK headphones in this range? Thinking of this one https://www.amazon.in/Infinity-Glid...07W5MZY9J/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

Cheaper ones don't have battery.
