Can you charge the battery using a USB portable power pack (like with a smartphone)? The manual gives the impression you have to use an AC adaptor.

We have only used the AC adaptor and we don't have a portable power pack so, I'm sorry I'm really not sure if you can do that.

Have a 'KAPAXEN' quick battery charger; indeed AC; so you can charge 2th or more battery without the HX-WA03.

I use such a pack to power the camera for long filming sessions (4+hrs) since the internal batteries have such poor duration. I expect you could recharge the batteries too. BTW, DON'T buy off brand batteries -- they are junk, don't last even 50% of expected time.

Yes, you can charge the battery in your phone. If you need a manual with this battery, please email support@ianker.com for further help.

Yes, you can buy a wall adapter (micro USB) that will charge it via a wall outlet.

Yes you can, you'll need a charger/adapter that uses a USB cord. I use my I-Phone charger to charge it. It takes 8-12 hrs to charge if it is completely dead.

Or you can buy one of those quick battery pack rechargers for phones and use that. Unfortunately, you'll have to take a break from using it to recharge it.

You charge the battery pack at home via wall plug or your computer, then carry it with along with you. There's a short USB that comes with it. Plug the USB cord into the battery pack and your phone and it will charge your phone for you when you don't have access to standard charging. There's a different cord for charging it at home. It comes with several tips so you can charge different things, iPhone, iPods, and others.

You can charge it by plugging it into a power source (the same as your android phone etc). Very easy to use.

You will need a USB adapter that is 220 compatible (most are). As long as it is a USB Charger, it will charge the battery.

Wont charge it directly, but if you keep a mobile battery in your pack, you can charge that and then plug your phone into the battery. Better than nothing in an emergency situaiton

No, you charge it using a micro-usb either from computer or a micro-USB charger (such as you might have with your phone)

Yes, just plug into the USB port and select power out. Turn the crank to charge. As long as you have a USB cable that fits your portable device, it will charge it.

I charge it with the usb. It doesn't last long. I am going to return it. Doesn't really work good if needed while out.

The battery does not come with any power adapter to charge it. It has a mini-usb port for charging. You can charge it by connecting the mini-usb to any powered USB, such as on your computer or on a cell phone charger. In order to charge it overseas you would need to be able to plug in your cell phone charger. If you look at your cell phone charger somewhere it should say "INPUT: 100-240V. If that is the case you DO NOT need to have a power inverter, just an adapter for the plugs which is way cheaper. You can usually find one for only a couple dollars.

I you have, say, a tablet or phone charger where you can unplug the USB cable and have the AC wall adapter seperate, you can use it to charge this device. Just take the wall adapter and plug a microUSB cable into the device and it will charge (you can use the microUSB cable that comes with e devce or use one that you use for your phone or tablet etc.)

Hi Alex, Any available USB power will work. I charge mine using my computer, a phone charger, or even the USB port on a printer.

As far as I know you can power it with a USB but not charge the batteries. I occasionally use a stand alone, rechargeable power source for mine.
