AirPods starts to charge at 78 in case when empty. How to fix? Reset didn’t work.

[jimmysofat6864]

I am trying to calibrate my AirPods to make them read battery more accurate. I drained them overnight and put them in the case but when I do that the battery reports back at 78-80 percent even though it’s been about 10 seconds. When I try to calibrate my gen 2 AirPods they start off at zero percent but when I try to calibrate my gen 1 AirPods they start off at unusually high percentages. How can I go about fixing this? I have already tried factory resetting and pairing and unpairing.

Is the reading also high on other IOS devices?

Are they & your IOS device/s on their latest firmware?

Yes other devices report the same thing and are all on their respective latest versions.

How are you checking the battery? Pop-up menu when you flip open the lid, or the Widget?

If you're not aware of the widget, enable it & see if it says the same thing.

I am using both and they both report the same status.
