I have only done it once so far and I took about 3 hrs to charge my phone. Have not tried to charge my IPad yet

It charges rather quickly but not to 100%. Great for long days and no other way to charge phone. Emergency solver.

The charging speed will be faster when it is plugged into the wall or using our docking station as opposed to be connected to a PC. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with. RND

No it does not charge any faster. The tight fit does get looser on the ac adapter charger, but still charges my phone.

I have no idea why it took so long but you use the smallish adaptor that's shaped almost like a trapezoid at the tip (should be in a small ziplock bag enclosed in package) and plug it into the USB cord then plug the USB cord into a wall adaptor (I use one from an old cell phone charger). Hope this helps!

I arrives fully charged and charges fast. I have not tested but directions say it fully charges in 12 hr. One thing is certain, it charges my Samsung Note 4 fully in 30-45 min. It can be charged w USB quickly.

If you mean using a USB cable, then yes. It takes a micro USB cable, similar to what most cell phones use to charge. If you mean can I charge it via a USB port on a computer, the answer is maybe, but it will probably take forever. I use a standard 1.5 amp charger from a phone and it charges fine.

"Effectively" can/will vary greatly from person to person, I would estimate (based off of other charts/graphs/pics) from other solar panels that it would take between 7 and 9 hours to fully charge a 10" (or so) tablet.

Charging with a wall adapter vs. a computer usb port will have no effect on the charging cycle. I have had mine for 3 years now and always use a wall charger. The only difference is the computer usb port will take more than 14hrs to charge it. Using a wall charger cuts that time to about 8 hrs.

This charges both tablets and phones. The ports are labeled, one for tablet, the other for phone. The tablet port delivers a higher charge to recharge tablet faster

i do not have difinitive answer; however, if you read carefully the accompaning instructions in some of these adapters, it reads "if you connect more than one device, the charging is slow.i if you use all ports the time to charge will "increase". it will require more time to charge.

Yes, underneath the grey rectangle on the black box with the wires coming out of it is a USB port. I used it to charge my Galaxy s3 etc. It is slow however. I think next time I may use it to charge a battery pack and then use the battery pack to recharge my gear.

Use a 2.1 amp charger with a micro usb plug for the device. It will take several hours to charge. If you use a 1 amp charger it will take at least 6 hours. I doubt that a usb slot on your computer (most are about 0.5 amp) would work.

For first time usage, it may take less than an hour to charge the tablet. If you have been using the tablet on a regular basis, it may take about one hour and fifteen minutes to charge.

No charger cord like a laptop. Instead, you have an adapter that plus to the wall and has a USB PLUG ON ONE END AND A MICRO USB PLUG ON THE OTHER END. Micro USB plugs to the tablet while the full USB plugs to the wall adapter or a PC Full USB for its power. Charges much faster thru wall adapter.

It's a 2amp charger. So it will rapidly charge your phone. I use it on my iPad and also my iPhone. It does not come with the usb cable though

The first charge can take up to 9 hours. I use an Anker intelligent charger which charges my mobile electronics very fast and I think it took ~5 hours for my first charge.

From what I remember, it came with a USB cord but no power adapter/wall plug. Using the cord that came with it and just a regular power adapter (like the ones that come with iphones, for example), it took the kindle eight hours to charge. So, I quickly purchased the amazon brand adapter/cord that is supposed to be a fast charging power adapter. With that adapter and cord it took between 3-4 hours each time I charged it.
