EPIC yet wireless battery only last about 12hrs

Hey I really bought this item as shown in my review. This item is the top of the line and if full of features. I bought the wireless and it is a HUGE mistake. The battery only lasts about 12hrs before it needs to be recharged again and recharging takes about 8hrs.

I recommend this but buy the WIRED version, you wont have to deal with the battery hassle. If I could i would return it and buy the wired, but its too late.

solid unit and performance

The wait for the headphones was long but worth it, the packaging is excellent with great presentation.
I followed the instructions that were included with the unit and they set up and worked flawlessly. I set them up on both my P.C. and My Mac with no problems.
The In game sound is fantastic in WoW, and sound quality is vary good in other games as well, but the quality when just listening to music is not great, but then I just remind myself they were not designed to be studio quality phones, they were designed for gaming and in that capacity the sound is great.
The Mic is clear and folks on Vent had no problem understanding me.
I purchased the Wireless version and the range is great, I can go from the computer to the Fridge in the kitchen (approx. 40ft) and not lose signal and thats through a couple walls, any distance farther then that and they start to cut out.
All in all am Vary happy with the product and the price is equal to the quality of the product.

Exceeded my expectations...

Well, it was a long wait, but when I received it I was delighted with the quality and performance of this device.

I have the wireless version and the reception is amazing. I can venture off to the kitchen to grab a beverage and still hear the ready check for a raid. They paid great attention to detail for the design, which is heavy duty and to the software which accompanies it. This unit is worth every cent of the price as it adds a lot of value to the WoW experience. I'm looking forward to getting my foot trigger activator for vent.

At first I was skeptical about this, as I feel I kinda got burned with the WoW Mouse ... which was this gigantic monstrosity of a brick to roll around my desktop, which I soon returned. But this device, has been pure heaven.

Great Gaming Headset

I just got this yesterday and it is just a great Headset. I played for 3 hrs and the sound was excellent. No cons. If you need a wireless gaming Headset and money is no object then this is for you. It only took three hrs to get a full charge though the manual said that it will take about 8 hrs for a full charge, did not.Love it.

Good solid headset, with no wires. Some people just aren't intelligent enough to use them correctly.

I have owned SEVERAL headsets over the past eight or nine years, and have been an avid PC gamer since I was 13 years old. This headset works well, is comfortable, sounds great, and best of all there is nothing to tether your head to the computer. I've had the headset for a couple of weeks now and I don't really have a single complaint about it. I don't quite understand why people give items bad reviews simply because they aren't capable enough to get the item to work. I bought two of these headsets one for my wife and one for myself. We sit in the same room when we play and they do not interfere with each other, or my wife's wireless keyboard at all. I have used the headset on both my desktop and our new laptop and it works, first time every time. I haven't had to pair the headphones with the USB transmitter or anything. Just plug the USB transmitter in and turn on the headphones and they work.
The voice morph software is fun to play with every once in a while. Yeah it's gimmicky and dumb, but good for a laugh when you are bored on vent. I have used these headphones to play WoW, Battlefield Bad Company 2, Bioshock 2, and a few other games, without having to adjust any settings or anything like that. No, I don't hear amazing new things I never heard before, but yes the sound is crisp and rich, and I think the surround sound feel works quite well. Sometimes you can hear ambient sounds or something from behind you while playing and it will fool you into thinking something is really happening in the room you are in. Also listening to music on these headphones is great. They get nice and loud (I was afraid they might not) and the sound quality and bass is great. They are LARGE headphones, but they aren't heavy at all, extended use of them is comfortable and they block out a lot of background noise which is great.
I've seen a ton of reviews of people talking about this headset having a bad mic on it. I haven't noticed this at all. The mic ISN'T perfect, but out of the 10-12 headsets I have owned (all of them considered high end at the time) none of them were 100% perfect. It's a microphone, and like with all the different headsets you have to take the time to get used to using it. No, it isn't going to act exactly like the last microphone you owned. Yes it can sound muffled if you don't wear the headset right and keep the mic too far away from your face, sorry it's not a magical microphone that floats in front of your mouth at the perfect distance for you, you actually have to wear the headset correctly. Everyone on vent has told me that I sound just fine on ve
