AirPods might just be the most convenient wireless headphones money can buy. But because they rely on Bluetooth, you can’t use them with everything. This little adapter from RHA hopes to change that.

The Wireless Flight Adapter plugs into any 3.5mm headphone jack to make it wireless. It’ll work with in-flight entertainment systems — as its name suggests — as well as the Nintendo Switch, TVs, old iPods, and more.

Apple’s decision to ditch the headphone jack back in 2016 has forced many of us to make the switch to wireless headphones. Some argue they don’t sound as good, but for the vast majority, they are more convenient.

But some devices don’t work with wireless headphones. Vintage iPods, older TVs, and even Nintendo’s fancy Nintendo Switch won’t let you connect your pricey Bluetooth cans. But they will if you add this inexpensive RHA adapter.

Wireless Flight Adapter brings Bluetooth to everything

The Wireless Flight Adapter comes fitted with two headphone jacks; it’s main purpose is to allow you to use AirPods — or any other wireless headphones — with in-flight entertainment systems. That’s not it’s only purpose, though.

You can use just one headphone jack at a time, which means the Wireless Flight Adapter can be connected to almost anything. That includes the Switch, a home stereo system, and even gym equipment.

What’s more, you can connect multiple pairs of headphones to the adapter, which makes listening to music or watching a movie with a friend easier than ever. And with Bluetooth 5.0, it has up to 10 meters of wireless range.

It won’t break the bank

The Wireless Flight Adapter will run for up to 16 hours in between charges, which means it’s good even for long-haul flights. And it won’t break the bank.

The adapter will cost you $49.95 in the U.S., €49.95 in Europe, and £39.95 in the U.K. You can order yours today from RHA.
