What devices can I use the Cloud Flight headset with?
This headset is geared to PC and PS4 gamers. But it will likely work with any device that
supports USB audio. But that excludes the Xbox One console as it does not support USB
audio. FAQ: KHX-010518-HSCF-01
What is the range of the wireless signal for the Cloud Flight?
20 meters (65 feet) is the effective wireless range in optimal conditions. Environmental
conditions such as obstacles, interference from other wireless signals, etc., will reduce the
effective range. FAQ: KHX-010518-HSCF-02
How long will the battery last on a full charge? How does the lighting on the headset affect
battery life?
If the light on the headset is turned off and the volume is at 50%, the battery should last
about 30 hours. The battery will drain faster if you have the volume higher or the lighting
effects turned on. By default, the light will be on when the headset is turned on. Short
press the power button to turn the headset on and cycle through the other lighting effects
(breathing and off). FAQ: KHX-010518-HSCF-03
