Can I keep my ipad charging at the same time? I need to broadcast a ceremony (1-2 hours long...) and worry about the battery life.

This is not from a person who is tech oriented, but the answer is no. Because the Blue Mic goes into the same slot as the power plug goes into. You need an adapter anyway to convert it to a lightning jack.

The mike will connect to the same port as the charger. Wouldn't a fully charged iPad have enough life for 2 hours?

I don't believe you can use the Blue Mikey without plugging it directly to your IPad.

Yes you can. On the right side in the microphone there's a place for a little USB port to go in. Plug in a mini USB port into there and then at the end on the USB port you can just plug that in to your iPads charger brick and insert that into an outlet and it should charge and use the microphone at the same time

Mikey connects to the iPad via the same port as the battery charger. However, Mikey has a mini USB port on the side which, with the proper cable, you will be able to charge the iPad while recording with Mikey. However, if you have your iPad full charged before you begin recording, I think you should have no trouble in recording two hours without charging.

I have charged my iPad and iPhone 4 at the same time with this set up. Works great

I have an iPhone 4S and an iPad 3. Both can be charged at the same time quite effectively by using the "A" port for the iPad and the "NA" port for the phone as described in other comments here.

I charge it when I have to re-charge the ipad.. it all depends on if you forget to shut it off & how much you use it..... like I have a time or two....

I never tried on iPad. I only tried on my cellphone and only charge one time and take really a long time to charge. And than you will have to recharge the solar charger.

Yes, I purchased it as a gift for my sister. And we both have charged and found at the same time. And also an iPad and iPhone at the same time it's really good.

I have not charged an ipad with it, however I have charged 3 fully depleated phones with energy still left in the device. Hope this helps. It's well worth the money

No. It can not be charging and used at same time. It holds a charge for almost 8 hrs of continued use.

Easily , charge it with Mini USB cable , and the difference betwen 2.1/ 1A is the speed of charge , for example the ipad need 2.1A if you use with it 1A this will causes a problem with the time for battery . Hope I answer your question

Sorry, I cannot really help. I have no devices like iPads that take more current to charge. Mine is used to charge 2 iPod Touches and two vanilla (old, not smart) phones. I also use it to charge a Kindle and occasionally another device or two. None of them high power. For my purposes, it works great.

The way the plugs are designed it is not possible to plug those two things in at the same time. It will charge the new ipad but you have to make sure the usb you plug it into is putting out the extra power required. Many do not and it will charge very slowly. I use the included usb adaptor made just for the ipad. My computer USB ports do not put out enough power.

As like anything else that doesn't have an auto shut-off, Yes, it will continue to use Power while charging at the same time!Always remember to turn it off!It will still charge, but, it'll take quite a bit longer with it on than off!I hope this clears things up for you.

Thats a good question, from what I have seen so far yes you are able to charge your device first. However, I noticed that when I started charging my iPad it actually drained so much power that it appeared the Anker could not keep up.Both Anker and iPad where empty when I started the test, when the iPad reached 50% it simply stopped charging.I have not had this issue when charging my iphone. I have not yet done the ipad charing scenario again. I'll post up a new review if I notice anything new. Otherwise I'm very happy with the amount of portable power available.

I charge my iPhone, iPad at the same time and have never received a slow charge warning. I have not tried 3 devices at once, though. Hope that helps.
