With the Wireless Charging Case , charging is as simple as placing your AirPods in the case and laying it on a Qi-compatible charging mat. The LED indicator on the front of the case lets you know that your AirPods are charging. And when you’re away from a charging mat , you can use the Lightning port to charge. The Wireless Charging Case works with AirPods (1st and 2nd generation) and can hold multiple charges.
