    Hi,
    I wanted to get a set of headset  (prefer with mike, but not critical) with both buetooth an 3.5mm audio. I did buy a budget pair, but the 3.5mm cabled connection only works with a charged battery. 

    Surely there is a set where the 3.5mm connection always work even after battery runs down.

    Thank you

    Hey G-Man.

    There are the Lindy BNX60 which have a mic and come with a lead as an alternative. Priced at £79.95 they have been pretty popular

    I'm going to test our demo pair to see if they work via the lead if the battery is dead and will let you know.

    Now the AKG Y50BT which are fantastic can operate on the cable even if the battery is dead. Priced at £119.00 (What HiFi award winning headphones)

    Let m know what you think and if the AKG might suit.

    Any questions drop me a post.
