Forcing a disconnect from FIND MY - Airpods Pro 2

Hi PhilWadden,

You are correct that there's not a way to erase AirPods. Do you have the "Remove from Account" button as shown in this link? Remove a device from Find Devices on iCloud.com - Apple Support

"Remove a device from the Devices list

If you’re not using a device, you can temporarily remove it from your account so it doesn’t show up in your Devices list. When the device goes online again, it reappears in the list if it has Activation Lock turned on (for an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or Apple Watch) or is paired with your iOS or iPadOS device (for AirPods or a Beats product).

1) Turn off the device, or put AirPods in their case. The device must be offline before you can remove it from the Devices list.

2) In Find Devices on iCloud.com, click All Devices, then select the device you want to remove.

3) If you don’t see All Devices, it’s because you’ve already selected a device. Click the name of the current device in the center of the Find Devices toolbar to see the Devices list, then select a new device.

Click Remove from Account.
