It comes with a USB cord that plugs into your computer. A phone charger will work also.

It attaches to the keyboard in the black slot at the top of the keyboard. Use the charging plug and wiggle it in and the charger plugs into the side.

It comes with a keyboard charger. Write to the seller,he will send you the charger at no charge. He is very responsive and very customer oriented.

You can charge the keyboard by plugging it to a USB port of your PC or to a transformer (charger) that takes USB. I used the charger that came with my ASUS tablet. The keyboard has a micro USB port similar to the ASUS tablet and comes with a USB to micro USB cable. It does not include a transformer.

look carefully on the side of the keyboard (edge) . there is a mini-usb port that can be used to charge it. It charges in pretty much less than an hour.

Shawn, the USB cable is only for charging the internal battery of the keyboard. I connected it to my laptop and all it does is charge the battery. The instruction manual doesn't mention about USB keyboard functionality. But I could be wrong.

You have to charge the keyboard. Plug it into the charger that comes with your tablet. Takes about an hour.

No The keyboard charger uses the standard USB short cord. One of the downsides to the mini is its not compatible to any other cord.

To charge the keyboard, place the usb port in your computer and the other port into your keyboard. When charged, the keyoard will connect wirelessly to you tablet.

Really not trying to be a smart ass, but there is also an on/off switch next to the charging input. Is the keyboard turned on? There should be a blue led light lit indicating the keyboard is on.

Hi Tony! No, I did not get a wall plug. But really didn't need one. I used the adaptor that came with the ASUS 5vdc @ 2A to charge the keyboard. However, I just bought a new adapter from Staples (5vdc @ 3A) that has dual USB ports on it for charging two devices at once. Easy now to plug in the ASUS along with the keyboard! Have a great day Tony!

No you don't have to charge this keyboard. It draws its power from the Surface, and that isn't much. The backlit keys go dark when you're not using them and then light up at a touch, so most of the time the Type Cover 2 isn't drawing power at all.

I use the USB charging cable that comes with the keyboard and connect it to the AC wall adapter that comes with the iPad Air to charge my keyboard. Works fine every time.

On and off slide switch is located upper right hand corner of keyboard. Charger is a short, black cord. Small end fits into side of keyboard when it's out of the case, and large end fits into an Apple wall charger plug (not included). Takes 2-3 hours for first charge. Charge can last many months. Did you get directions with your unit? If not, you can go online to Zagg and download them.

It was charged when it arrived. In fact, I have never put any effort into charging it. I just leave it with the solar panel facing up whenever I close it, and it has always been ready to use. It uses either the natural light or the light from a lamp to charge. I am very happy with this keyboard!

Mine uses the same charger for the keyboard and the tablet. When the tablet and keyboard are plugged together, they will both be charged at the same time.

You can use any micro usb cord to charge the keyboard. Here's one on amazon that's 10' long: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CTUIT20?cache=b9c9057edc8ce9ceec3f64dd41907d2e#ref=mp_s_a_1_4&qid;=1392772512&sr;=8-4
