Summary: Harry asked: "My wife has 2 Bluetooth hearing aids. I have a fairly new 4K TV and a 4K receiver, but neither one has Bluetooth. So I bought a bluetooth transmitter that you can plug into the headphone jack. The problem is, it only works about 8 hours on a charge, then you have to plug it in and it doesn't work while it's charging. Is there a USB transmitter that i can use for the bluetooth hearing aids. It sure would help my wife who has profound deafness."<br> <br> <br> Harry, there are bluetooth transmitters that are virtually the same as the one you have except that they work while they’re plugged in.<br> <br> The TaoTronics Wireless Portable Transmitter sells for $28 and is one such transmitter.<br> <br> The problem you’ll run into very quickly is that most bluetooth transmitters are chinese generics. We can’t really say “buy the Sony one” or “buy the Samsung one.”<br> <br> <br> <br> We promise they do exist though, we know that because we use a chinese generic bluetooth transmitter on remote broadcasts to feed a speaker we use so that waiting guests and PR reps can listen live as we record interviews for the show. Our no-name generic works both on battery and A/C power.<br> <br> Your best bet is to look at specs online and make sure they specifically mention that they work while charging.<br> <br> Sorry we can’t give you specific models, Harry, but even the TaoTronics we mentioned earlier looks exactly like the one we use.<br> <br> They really do look like they all come out of the same assembly line and just get stamped with different brands at the end.
