How to charge airpods without case

So I am going to be 100% Honest and please bear with me

Now there is no way that this they can be charged without the case. Do not listen to any guides saying to put stuff in your airpods because you will damage them. The only solution is to get a replacement case, you can choose to get one from apple, or ebay. Only difference is cosmetic

• Apple Airpods Case (1st Gen) - Apple
• Apple Airpods Case (Certified Refurbished) - eBay

You can connect them to a device without the case, if you connected to them before. The case charges the airpods and put them in setup mode for pairing.

• If you get a replacement case and the airpods are charged, use this guide to pair them to your phone - Pair AirPods (1st, 2nd, or 3rd generation)
• If you do have a device you used the airpods with, this guide shows you how to connect to them, if they still have battery life - How to Turn On AirPods Without a Case: A No-Fuss Guide
