What is the average battery life of this headset?

I've owned this headset for 3 or so months now, the battery has been lasting around 4-5 hours of straight listening in surround sound mode with mic active. It works great as a PC headset as well. When I don't use it much more than an hour or two in a single session it lasts for a very long time, I charge it about every 2 days if I'm only gaming for a few hours here and there. It stays charged very well when not in use. Charging only takes about 2 to 3 hours, so when it finally does die: it's a quick recharge and you're back in business.Also remember it comes with a speaker adapter which works great for PS vita, cellphones and tablets.

Can I use 2 headset while on my playstation3?

If you are using multiple player profiles, yes. When you connect the headset it asks which player logged in is it connected to just like a controller. This is for ps4 only. On PS3 you can have 2 headsets but only one may chat the other is just for audio.

Can this headset be used by jacking into the (PS4) controller instead of the wireless option? And if it can work, is there any drop in sound quality via the 3.5mm?

yes you can, but you lose 7.1 surround sound if you are watching a movie or some games with surround. the 3.5mm jack is just stereo. To be frank I can hardly tell if something is 7.1 on headphone, but it does sound a tad difference (I prefer the wireless sound tho). I would use the 3.5 jack only if the headphone runs out of battery. The usb work on the computer too, but isn't as good.

I don't see any traditional microphone pictured, does this headset support chat or is it output only?

The mic works well for simple games but if you play a shooter or something that requires time critical information its useless. Its a cool feature not have a traditional mic but theres no noise cancelation and I would literally pull the headset off and put up to my mouth in order to be heard sometimes otherwise no one could hear me speak as I sounded muffled and far away.
