Ask HN: Are you sick of throw away Bluetooth head/earphones?

Because I'm. No matter at what price point you purchase - These headphones or any battery operated gadgets are meant to be thrown away.

Imagine a fully working headphone with diaphragm and electronics perfectly fine but you have to throw the whole thing because it won't last minute because of an aging battery.

And the impact of this wasteful greedy manufacturing on climate change cannot be overstated.

And I don't know why all the hollow climate change talk is so shallow on action and regulations?

What can be done about it? Also, any headphones that let you replace batteries?

I don't need extensive water proofing. Just give me back old reliable 3.5mm jack
