Hey there, 
 
Can't use the search option to work properly on my padfone....  I am a few encouraging words away from pulling the trigger on AKG K 712 PRO.  I can get a new pair for 210€ shipped. 
Any MOJO owner using this? Is it a good combination?  Sorry again but there are few left in Stock.... 
 
Cheers

ZX2 to Mojo.  Sounds about the same as my other sources for Mojo - Note 4, Nexus 6P, DX90.  Mojo still sounds more alive to me, but ZX2 with TRRS wins in soundstage and separation.  Strictly talking IEM's of course, ZX2 can't really handle any big cans.
 
Haven't tested the KSE1500 with mojo yet, will do so later.

So you are saying, from blue light to Blinking red light, the time span is 3 hours only ?

Recently I paired an old iPhone 5s with my Mojo for portable use w/ my Ether Flows. It's been working out so well w/ Tidal and the Onkyo HF Player app that I decided to replace the iPhone with an iPod touch. This change should also help with or eliminate the dreaded RF/EMI noise. Additionally, because I use the Mojo at my desk (in place of a full desktop stack) connected to a Roon Bridge source, I wanted the ability to easily move the Mojo in and out of the portable stack. Finally, I didn't want to use a strap or band in the setup as they are somewhat cumbersome and interfere with the iPod's display.
 
So here's what I ended up with. It works and sounds amazing and provides more functionality/utility than any of the high priced DAPs I've looked at.
 
Details:
- Chord Mojo in the official Mojo case.
- iPod touch 128GB attached to the mojo case via Scotch 5Lb outdoor fastener strip.
- Fiio L19 lightning to micro-usb cable.
- Mojo can be easily added to or removed from the stack (via the case) as needed.

My mojo had the same issue with less than 3hr battery life and would get extremely hot when charging.
mine charges, light turns off as if charging has completed. Then 3 hrs of use its battery runs out.

Have you run it through a complete battery cycle? Run the unit down to blinking red, charge full, run to blinking red again, charge full again. Earlier this helped some users restore their batter run time.
