I have had my airpods for about a week now and have been experiencing the battery drain problem. I ran the case down but the pods were still 100% last night. Went to use the pods today and they wouldn't work. It was my understanding that the case was dumb so shouldn't they work when the case is depleted or did they completely drain overnight by themselves?
I don't think the case serves as a connection point since mine work fine when I go out for a run, so they should work fine even if the case is dead.
Sounds like they discharged overnight.
Yes they will.. My case was dead because I forgot to charge it and the headphone still had 70%... I used them today for an hour and a half in the gym while the case was charging at home.

other day as I was using mine as well.
Wow, thanks for the answers. That is crazy because I know the left one had 100% and the right was at 85%. That's disturbing. I will have to try and recreate it and contact Apple.

Did you try to connect to them using the bluetooth settings on you're device? I didn't, just grabbed my old pair of lg tone 910s to
use. I will try that next time. Thanks.
If the AirPod Case is completely dead (not even a light) Then the AirPods will not know to shut off when you put them back in the case. Therefore they will continue to stay on even inside the case. This is due to the fact the case applies A small voltage to the AirPods to let them know they are docked. From experience a low case battery will still shut off the AirPods but not charge
them. No battery at all and the AirPods don’t know whether they are in the case or not. They will actually probably think they are in your ears.

If they didnt then when a case discharges all its stored energy into the AirPods the AirPods would think they are
out of the case and would connect to iPhone and all sound would go through the AirPods. That seems logical. ^guy knows his stuff.

charger.....it’s just a tool to keep the two devices in contact with each other, that’s all.

The contacts at the bottom connects them and tells them they are being charged. The magnets hold them down and assist in placing them in the case. If you hold a magnet to an AirPod whilst its still in your ear it wont stop playing so its not the magnets. Its the circuit.
Well the case has no power so the headphones would sit there draining as it cannot make “contact” with the case since it’s dead
I’ve had issues twice where I put my AirPods in the case and the next day the left AirPod was 100% and the right one like 15%.
Sorry for bumping this thread, but I experienced the same issue, I tried connecting the AirPods to my MacBook and it didn't connect for some reason, I couldn't figure out why, I tried everything, then I realised the case was dead(both left & right still had 75% charge), once plugged in the case, it connects to my Mac again, no problems... so it basically means when the case is dead,
its game over?! Or am I missing something?

yesterday when i let my case die my air pods keep making the dieing sound

I know this is an old thread, but has this ever officially been clarified? Just experienced this today. I know the case was close to dead last night, but each AirPod had plenty of battery. Got to the gym and they wouldn’t work. Tried manually connecting Bluetooth, restarting phone, but they refuse to work. Do AirPods work with dead cases?Can You Use Airpods When The Case Is Dead? Yes, you can use AirPods even if the case has no battery. However, be mindful that the AirPods will eventually run out of battery and need to be put in the case for recharging.
Can you charge AirPods without the case?It's not possible to charge AirPods or AirPods Pro without the case. While many hacks on the web claim you can use certain chargers or apps to give your AirPods a charge, the only way to charge AirPods is to use an AirPods charging case.
How long do AirPods last without the case?You will also know how long AirPods can last without a case if you're a heavy user. You will have 5 hours of listening time and 3 and a half hours of talk time. As long as your AirPods have been successfully paired with your smartphone, they will be ready to use if there is enough battery power.
Do AirPods turn off when case dies?The charging case has nothing to do with AirPod functionality, as long as the AirPods have a charge. That means that your Apple AirPods will not turn off if the Apple Charging Case is dead.
