Hello GusBus134,


This article provides the different ways to charge the AirPods:

Charge AirPods (all generations) or AirPods Pro (all generations) - Apple Support

To charge the AirPods or AirPods Pro case, do one of the following:
• Charge with a cable: Connect the case to a power outlet using a Lightning to USB Cable and a compatible power adapter.
• Wireless charging case: For AirPods (2nd generation) or AirPods (3rd generation) with a wireless charging case, or AirPods Pro (all generations), place the case with the status light facing up on the center of a MagSafe wireless charger or a Qi-certified charger.
If you have AirPods Pro (2nd generation), you can also place the case with the status light facing up on the center of an Apple Watch wireless charger.
When the case is aligned properly with the charger, the status light turns on for several seconds, then turns off while the case continues to charge. By default, the charging case for AirPods Pro (2nd generation) also plays a sound, but you can turn it off. See Turn off charging case sounds on AirPods Pro (2nd generation).


Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities, and have a great day!
