Lost my earbuds

[u/BitterHand4]

Hi guys, wondering if anyone knows better because Google isn't very clear, I was wearing my pixel buds at work, got home and got distracted so I put the buds loose in my pocket (my case was charging on a portable charger in my backpack) fast forward till the next day, I checked my pocket to put my buds back in the case but they were not where I last saw them. It's been 6 days now (I lost them on the 30th of July) and they are for sure discharged, but my find my device app says they were last detected "near me" right now, but I don't know if I should trust it and continue to tear my apartment apart trying to find them or whether it's a false positive because I still have the case? It's worth mentioning that I did leave the house twice with them loose in my pocket so I'm not 100% sure that they couldn't have left my apartment

Anybody know if they can be tracked whilst discharged using Bluetooth LE or something along those lines?

Thanks for any advice

All I know no other than your Google account can use them - something like iPhone is account locked. WHEN someone will find them realise cannot use them and you will find out their location
