Airpods Pro 2nd gen case battery drain

You can’t go below 1% I tried over 2 hour and the battery had 1% , even when AirPods was like 80-90% but to be honest I tried first time 5 days ago that I made case 1% and then fully charge and I had no battery drain by it self, hope it’s fixed for me but I’m not sure , still in testing phase but like I said above emptying case battery and then charging again it might fix it if you have not done yet

I did that I drain the AirPods to zero and the case to about 1% turn off notify me in the find me app and I’m still losing 18 to 20% a day.

I have now turned off find me completely, and it’s slowed to about 5% a day.

i bought my first AirPods ever like 5 month ago, had no experience, thought it’s okay. But after my case battery get to 4% after 3 hours of music and 3 days of not using them at all I start to google and found this topic. Trying to fix problem with turning off notification on find me app and it’s not really worked. I think good way to find out is this case or pods itself is to just leave pods not in case (turn off bt) and see if the case drops battery by itself alone

You will tell in the next few hours. It usually drains about 1% per hour give or take. Hopefully it will fix it. Let me know!

Oh, and dont turn off find my nor notify me when left behind, it should be fixed with that on or else its not a fix!

I have the same problem with an Airpod 2nd Generation (not Pro). I did similar tests as you did. I didn't have this problem with my previous Airpod 1st gen. The specification page doesn't indicate for how long the battery will keep the battery level while not using it. It seems to be a common problem, for example, AirPods Battery Drain? How to Fix. Today I visited the Apple store. They did several tests and it seems my Airpods don't have any issues. They updated the firmware and I turned off the find device option. I will test it again, to see how it works. The technical at the Apple store and even over the phone could not explain this behavior. I don't use it often, maybe once per week, so I found this issue. After charging the case and the AirPods both at 100%, when I try to use it again after several days, the case is at 5%, and sometimes the airpods are not even at 100%. They only refers to the following information Apple provides:

AirPods

• Up to 5 hours of listening time with a single charge

AirPods with Lightning Charging Case

• More than 24 hours of listening time

so you can deduce the case can charge the Airpods 24/5=4.8 times, but it doesn't indicate it needs to happens with no waiting time between one charge and another, so after 3-5 days the battery is drained, without even using the airpords.

From the user's perspective, this is not what we expect, it is like having a car in your garage for a week and then the battery is drained without using the car. This is not acceptable.

It happens to me also, but i think its more like one of the airpods not inserted properly in the case.

Until I disabled “Find my network” the case and the AirPods won’t appear on the battery widget so I think it will stop the battery drain.

This worked for me, case had 36%. Forgot device and reconnected and it showed 86%.

I also thought I had this problem with the case, however after doing some testing with everything fully charged I removed AirPods from case and had all three sitting for separately not being used for 24 hours and case was still at 100% however AirPods were at 48%. They replaced the AirPods so I'm on my 2nd pair and these are even worse after 17 hours they were at 42%. I agree these are faulty production, 1st generation I had no issues.

The bug could well be that it was just not reporting correctly the battery percentage and not that it was actually draining the battery for reals? Who knows, I already updated in the early morning and i am doing some testing as we speak. I have "notify me when left behind" the case is at 95% and been sitting at that for a few hours now. Ill wait till the end of the day to see where its at, ill post my results. Either way, everybody should update to the latest firmware. It should fix something.

I have the Airpods Pro 1 gen and noticed a drain also recently. I updated to the latest firmware 5E133, but there were no update for the case like there was for those with Airpods Pro gen 2. I tried one of the tips mentioned by someone a while back saying to unpair the airpods and reset the case and set it all up again, will have to wait and see if it has helped. Will leave the airpods/case untouched for now and check again tomorrow to see how much it has drained. When I checked today after the reset both the buds and the case was at 98%.

no, for example if I use the airpods only 10% (90% remaining) and put it in the case to charge, the case drops from 100 to 92%, this is a several drain because the case should charge the aipods at least 4 times, if the charge ratio is almost 1 to 1 (1:1) case:airpods, the performance of the case is one charge only, this is my actual problem, the airpods are brandnew

Okay I see , but have you tried not to too much use high volume when listening to music 🎧 on them. Try this trick and can and tell me later

Also try to use the authentic charger that came with the AirPods please

I found solution for this issue on mac rumors forum, and it fixed it for me.

I don’t get it after unpairing and repairing the ipods I only lost 15% of the case battery ???? In two days ,

but it’s true that I didn’t use the AirPods at all during those two days !
