So I brought my headset in to work today and wanted to listen to a online video to only realize that apple only provided one side of the solution not the other. I need a lightning to 3.5mm headjack adaptor

Anyone can point me to the right one that would be great.

Don't you have any 3.5mm headphones. It's pretty much a given that a pair of lightning earphones are only going to connect to Apple products.

You will not find a simple adapter. The Lightning headphones (and their inbuilt DAC/amp) need a power supply, which the headphone jack cannot provide. Of course it'd be possible to build an active adapter with a battery, but it'd be much simpler (and probably cheaper) to just buy a set of earphones with a 3.5mm jack.
