How long does it take to charge? Can you use it while it's charging?

I don't remember how long it took to charge but you can use it while plugged in since it is battery or direct current. I stopped using mine since it did not work properly.

You are only suppose to recharge the battery no longer than 6hrs; however, I can charge it 6hrs and when I go to use it - one charge will last about 30-45mins....

I'm not sure how long actually it takes to charge but it does take quite a while or so it seems.try a little bit longer. I hope it does charge for you.

I charged it over night. So I don't know how long it actually took to charge. I do know the charge is good for a few hours of use, though. Sorry i can't be more specific.

I usually have to charge mine for about 2 hours give or take for it to get a full charge. It takes a while for me to charge up my phone once I attach it to my phone i have to leave it on there for a bit.

You can charge it in about 2 or 3 hours. I found a trick that if you make sure it stays cool, it will charge quicker and discharge slower. Not a bad battery.

The charge has been lasting about 20 to 30 minutes. Initial charge was 6 hours and charging after use has been taking anywhere from 2 to 3 hours.

Hi Jeanne C,Although it does take a while to charge (5.5 -6.5) hours, I like the fact that it is a longer cord. Thanks! :)

You have to recharge the battery. t does not work while charging. But this is not issue for me because the battery life is about 8 hours.

Yes you can use the device while it's charging. It takes about 2 hours to charge a kindle fire (assuming the power-gen is fully charged). A great, useful, simple to operate gadget!!

I don't know exactly how long to charge, I usually plug it in at night and let it charge overnight. However, I would definitely buy a back-up to have ready.

The instructions tell you how long to charge it initially. I've only recharged it once since then.

It doesn't take long... just about as much time as your cell... It is best to turn off any device while charging for faster time. I plug my unit in at night and charge while I'm sleep... since I only use in the mornings! Very neat with great sound... more than you really need in an average crowd.

Not long. 20-30 minutes max. Mine came with an extra battery, which makes it use able. You always have to have a spare charged. Other than battery life, it works great.

Yes, you can use it while it is charging. This is important if you forget to plug it in so it still works.

It doesn't take long to charge the device. It will only fully charge your phone once or twice I'd recommend investing in a better one if your looking to use it a lot.

Hello. I never actually timed it, but it seems like it only takes a few hours tops. It holds the charge good as we'll hope this helps a little.
