I have a 3 in charger the base for the airpods don't charge them

Hi steph49er,

We want to make sure you get the help you need charing your devices.

Many accessories have wireless pads for charging your AirPods. Which charger do you have?

Which AirPods do you have? Not all AirPods support wireless charging, so that might be part of the issue.

If you have any case or other accessories attached to the AirPods, you can also test removing those.

Here is info on charging AirPods:

Charge AirPods (all generations) or AirPods Pro (all generations)

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.

steph49er,

Thanks you for clarifying.

These specs can help you determine if you have Wireless Charging Case: AirPods (2nd generation and earlier) Wireless Charging Case - Technical Specifications

Hopefully this helps.

Cheers!

I have the 3rd generation AirPods and they won’t charge on my 3 in one charger but my phone and my watch charge fine
