Does the S adapter drain the battery of the device faster?

I have not had that issue at all, have flown to Japan and still had Battery.

Yes. It works nicely and can be used in conjunction with a battery so you can decouple the adapter and seamlessly switch to battery-only operation and back without powering off.

The adapter is just a socket with an on off socket. The power to the socket is constant. It shouldn't have any effect on your outletted items.

I have several and I usually leave it plugged in overnight but it many charge faster. I don't know.

If below 15% or completely dead, it takes my kindle fire 9" 3-4 hours, which is soooo much quicker than the regular adapter or hooking to your computer. Love this adapter. I charge my RAZR phone with it, too, because it is so much faster than the one that came with my phone.

No I keep it plugged in with a 2-usb cig lighter adapter and a mini usb cord from mono price, I use the other usb plug for phone.Edit: I see now you might have meant storage space and not battery life, if so then it depends on sdcard capacity as another responder mentioned. FYI a Sandisk 32gb card did not work for me even tho it should have been fast enough so I switched to a Samsung and have had no issues so far.

No...as with any electronic device the more you use the faster you lose...I bought a third party extra battery and charger as a backup...

I didn't experience the high battery drain mentioned in the other answer but, the connection does wiggle some, enough to cause dismay. I found this device satisfactory ONLY when it sits still on a nearby table. When in a pocket, it's range is severely limited. I moved on to a different device with no regrets.

It's possible that it doesn't. I just needed it for an emergency charge to get me out of a bind while on vacation. I still use my primary charger 99% of the time. I will say though, the time I used it I didn't notice that the battery discharged noticeably faster.

No. Adapter loses connection and drops in and out intermittently. Not usable at all.

Yes; how ever the charging capability is slower than the battery drain of using BY for music. I was stuck in traffic and noticed a steady drop in the battery. Overall, I would recommend using a car charger and not the USB.

if your device is off, the adapter will turn off. so it will not use connection when not being used.

I don't know where you got this info, but the high capacity chargers for both devices are rated at 5VDC, 2.1A. So NO. And, if you charge at a faster rate the battery will fry!

Yes. Per my observation, the battery capacity data does show on SX50 screen and proportionally decreased through the usage.

Yep same as below. I dont use the adapters aither and charge 2 4s at the same time.

No. It will slowly drain the battery. I have several of these, and store them disconnected.

remember that this is an adaptaer that charges the battery not the device, if you unplugged and it shuts down, you have to replace your battery!!!
