Is the speaker battery charged through an outlet or through the computer?

Either. You can connect the USB end to an AC Adapter or input directly to your computer for charger. I routinely use the adapter.

Through the computer. You can charge it while you are using it or at a different time. It doesn't mention it in the description but it also collapses for easy and safe transport. I am very happy with it. I use it to show DVDs to small groups using a digital projector also plugged into my laptop.

You can charge it both ways. It comes with an usb charger for the computer but if you get an adapter you can charge through an outlet.

The speaker only has a USB power connector so it will need a computer. However, I am using a USB wall charger for a different device to charge it. USB power output is fairly standard.

Carrie, the speakers are powered from 110v house currant. There is an on/off switch and a tone control on the right channel speaker. You have to turn them on and off seperate from your computer unless you have a power outlet for 110v on your computer.

I can charge it on the computer or I can take out the battery and charge it in the battery charger plugged into the wall socket. If you get an extra battery you can have a spare ready to go if you need it.

You charge the battery via the USB wire that you must keep and plug into any usb port. That charges the battery. There is no other method to charge the battery with house current, but it is not a problem. I have been using mine for about 9 months now, and the record player works great by itself. I have not been able to plug speakers into it and make them work, but it is probably just me. The charging system works fine, it takes about an hour to charge from the USB off of my computer. You can get an ac adapter to usb, and then plug your wire into that, to charge the battery. That would work too. Also a 12 volt adapter to USB port will work. The battery runs the record player for a long time, I have not ran out of power using it for half a day, so that part works fine. I recommend being very careful when you plug the wire into the side of the case, as the usb wire connector can bend the charging wires, I had to put on my glasses and straighten them out, as I mashed the wires into the connector incorrectly, thinking I had it in there the right way.

Hi David, are you sure that you. Charged it correctly? By that I mean, have you charged it from a wall outlet? If you're charging it from a computer some computers require you to plug in the sound/speaker cable too. For example, when I plug it in to my laptop to charge I just need the USB cable and that it, it will charge. BUT if I am charging it from my Desktop I need to ALSO plug in the headphone/speaker cable. So you might think it is charging when it is not. If you're going to. Charge it from a desktop make sure you plug in the USB cable to the computer AND the speaker/headphone cable too. Also make sure the blue light is blinking. That will tell you that it is charging. I hope that helps!

The speaker has to be plugged into an electrical outlet in order for it to work.

The speaker I got is charged with a USB cord. Not sure how long the charge lasts, I use it at work for about an hour everyday (5 days) and out of habit I charge it twice a week to make sure it's always charged. Hope this info helps!

I keep mine plugged in the wall socket but I unhooked it and plugged it in my computer's USB port and the red charging indicator light lights up...the same as it does when the speaker is plugged in the wall socket....so, I'd say yes it does charge from the computer usb port. This speaker has awesome sound. I purchased based on Phillips name and other audio products of theirs I purchased and everyone I show my speaker off to is impressed. Go for it!

My speaker only came with a USB cord. So I can charge from any computer or charger (house or car) that has a USB port.

It plugs into the wall (120V AC) and has an internal power supply, no external transformer. It is not battery powered. Mine is connected to a desktop PC and sounds very good. I expect that it should sound just as good on a laptop.

The TB-10 Bluetooth speaker is powered by a rechargeable battery that that is charged by a USB cable plugged into a computer or other device. Leaving a fully charged battery connected to a charging circuit may shorten battery life.Judy, The Tuff-Built Team

There are two options...first is a usb cable that connect it to the computer to charge or the second option is a power charger that will plug into the wall outlet. the power port on the ear piece is on the bottom of the thick piece that goes behind the ear.
