How does it charge? Does it charge while plugged into the dock?

Yes - assuming your dock is powered - some docks can work without power and so those won't charge the Auris.

Yes, it uses the charging pins in the dock to charge its internal battery. Apple changed which pins supply power to its iPods several years ago, however, so docks built for the early generations of iPods will not charge this. It will play audio, but not charge, in older docks.

It's supposed to, but not all docks will charge it. My VW dock in my 2008 Rabbit does not.

Yes. When the Tablet is connected to the Dock the Tablet is charged by the Dock and the Dock is charged by the Power cord. I often recharge the Dock and Tablet with it close. The charging port is on the side that is exposed. I did not connect the strap on that one side because it sort of blocked the port enough to bother me but that will not affect its security in the case.

Hi Steve, There are two ways to charge it. The dock will charge it. There is a micro USB port on the back of the dock. The earpiece itself also has a micro USB port for direct charging. Ron

Yes, it is. But - just to notice - if you wish to charge batteries using the dock, you HAVE to use AC adapter provided, USB connection IS NOT enough for it; and though the phone itself IS charging via USB, it's absolutely inefficient until you plug the AC adapter to the dock and to a power outlet.

It does not switch to dock mode, this is basically just a USB port on a plastic tray. You can add an app though to have it enter dock mode when it is plugged into charge.

Yes, I've done that, and it charges just fine. Note that it will assume it's plugged into a dock, and connect with the current device when you do it.

I have not used the dock for charging. The case is very sturdy and I found it easy to remove.

The phone charges when docked. You can alternatively plug your phone in to a standard lightning cable charger and play through the speaker via Bluetooth or via the Aux In port on the back of the dock (with a 3.5mm cable).

"Maintenance Mode/Float Mode charging" --- from the product description, so yes, the docked device is kept fully charged. The device itself is used as a jump starter.

No. The dock is basically a passthrough for the USB cable. You plug your USB cable in the dock and the dock has a micro-USB connector of its own. What you are looking for is an external battery charger.

It didn't before I put it in the trash. The red light I believe on the back where the spare battery charges is the indicator, and when it turns green you're good to go. Mine didn't last two months before it just completely quit charging on the dock. I got rid of dock, but kept the cable to be able to charge my phone with just that.

The charging port is open, I don't know about the dock, don't use one. Fits in my Samsung car dock.

No. It has to be plugged in to charge. The dock is just a pass-through for the charging cable. It doesn't have a separate battery to store power. That would make it much more expensive.

Yes a cable for each section of the dock and that cable needs to plug into a charger (1 each or 1 charger with 2 USB ports).

1) The dock must be plugged in to a power source to work, and yes it charges my ipad 3 while connected.2) I have a Otterbox Defender Series case/cover on my iPad 3 and I never have to remove it. It fits and works perfectly.

The Dock plugs into the wall. The wand charges in the Dock and then runs on the rechargable battery when undocked.
