This speaker has a built-in rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery built in. 2500 MaH, which lasts between 10 and 16 hours, depending on the volume that you play the music at. If using it at moderate volumes, our tests have lasted over 16 hours. If at maximum volume, it lasts about 10 hours. This speaker also has a built in power bank. You can actually use the built-in battery to charge other devices that can be plugged in using the USB port on this device. There are 2 ports- one Micro USB port that is used to charge the speaker. One full size USB port that you can use to charge another device. Obviously that will affect the battery duration- if being used to charge another device while listening to music. The speaker does come with a Micro USB cable, but it doesn't have a USB wall charger included. You can use any Micro USB phone charger or any USB charger to charge the device in only 1 to 2 hours. You can also plug the included cable into a computer's USB port. Most people already have either Micro USB or USB chargers that came with their Android or iPhone devices, so the same charger can normally be used as long as it either has a Micro USB or USB port. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I can usually get about 3 charges out of it. I tend to use my phone (for twitter or whatever) at the same time it's trying to charge it, but I can usually do that 2-3 times before the Pebble is drained. I love my Pebble! Wouldn't travel without it, as my phone tends to drain quickly when I'm in roaming territory.

I can fully charge my iphone 5 three times with a 12v battery. I'm sure the 1.5 amp hour 20v will do the same or more. The charge rate is very fast especially in airplane mode.

Ok, I have had two of these (red and black) for 1 year iPhone 5... and like them so much that I cant think of using another brand. First, the only time you need to take tha case off is when you need to back up the phone by Lightning cable. Secondly, If you do your backups wirelessly you never have to take the case off. Thirdly, to charge the iPhone and case connect a micro usb cable to the case and the other end (regular usb 2) to at least a 10 watt wall plug. On the back of the case a red led will start flashing, then blue led will flash, then green led flash to steady green led (charging complete) When the charging starts, it will fill the iPhone battery first, then the case. From dead batteries it could take up to 4 hours. You can disconnect the cable any time during the charging cycle to use, and reconnect at a later time to continue. To only use your phone battery, push the button on the back till you see the indicator on the phone show battery in the phone only. If you want to use both batteries at the same time (passthrough charging) push and hold the button on the back of the case till you hear "chimes" and see the green battery logo on the phone. I fill (charge) both batteries, then turn off the case battery. When the iPhone gets down to about 20%... turn on the case battery (hold down the button on back of case) till till the phone reads 100%... about 15 minutes... then turn the case battery off till needed again. You can do this at least 3 cycles (for me 3 to 5 days). I carry a second charged case when I am on the road and "never" run out of juice. I hope this helps you and others ;-{)

From what I researched online it said to charge it overnight. When I received it, that is what I did. There are four blue lights on the unit and when they are all lit, the unit is full. I'd say probably four to six hours for a full charge. How long the unit stays charged depends on what you are charging. It can recharge a smart phone twice but if you leave your phone on while its charging it uses more power so the unit will drain faster. I've charged my ipod 4 times on this unit. The more advanced the technology, the quicker it drains. I have not been successful charging my ipad generation 1.

No, you cannot charge through USB. For an iPhone, 5W is required, for MacBook Pro, 60W is required (although 85 W is recommended). (So MBP would take 12 times longer than an iPhone.)If you got a suitable 12v inverter to connect to the MacBook Pro's power pack, that would be fine.I *think* a modified sine wave inverter will be sufficient (as opposed to pure sine wave inverter).(In general, never use a modified sine wave inverter for anything that spins or relies on nice AC power (audio equipment comes to mind) you'll end up damaging something.)

You can fully charge iphone twice, the third time can't be filled with. For most of the mobile power supply, the actual conversion efficiency is about 2/3 (60% ~ 70%)

Dear Kacterine, the answer to your question depends on what do you use to charge the unit. A standard 850mA Cell phone charger can take about four hours. If you use a smaller of 500mA can take a couple of hours longer. The same applies if you use your computer to charge it, between 6 to 7 hours depending on the laptop used. Be sure to have your laptop connected to a power outlet otherwise it can take longer.

It takes about 5 hours. Once fully charged I have charged my phone to 100% battery 6 times and have yet to recharge the bank. Be aware that the EasyAcc has a special charger and can not be charged through usb.

Not sure I understand the question. I use it to recharge my device, not as a supplementary power supply. Mine holds a charge for about 3-4 weeks. It charges my Iphone 1-1.5 times on one charge.

In my experience, the charged power bank can fully charge your phone once, from about 10% to 100%. You have to keep the power bank ready to go at all times.

For an iPhone you can get approximately 4 to 5 charges to full power, depending on how low the battery life is on your phone. Making it excellent to take with you when you're out and about. However it isn't effective to charge your iPad, as to charge my iPad to full power I had to recharge the power bank 4 times whilst doing it.

Not sure about charging a mini, since I've never had to charge mine with it. I can fully charge my iPhone 5 from 14% to 100% 4 times. Hope that helps.

FYI to anyone wanting to extend the life of this unit. Reading the manual, it states you should leave this pack sit with about a HALF charge and use it at least once a month. Once/week is better. Inside are two 2600mAh Samsung Li-Ion cells. Li-Ion batteries HATE being charged and being placed somewhere to sit or else they commit suicide!Mine is over a year old and still working fine. When not in use, I usually charge my iPhone from about 30% to 100%, then recharge the battery pack so it's somewhere around 50-75% charged. I try to do this once each month since I don't use it a lot.
