Charge does not take more than an hour. It is a small battery, where it last a long time before a charge is needed. The red light will go out when it is charged. Very good case and the kick stand works better than most designs.

You can use any micro usb cord to charge the keyboard. Here's one on amazon that's 10' long: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CTUIT20?cache=b9c9057edc8ce9ceec3f64dd41907d2e#ref=mp_s_a_1_4&qid;=1392772512&sr;=8-4

Ok, this is a guess (my keyboard only drained once so far). I had the same experience, so trusting the light to be truthful, I assumed the device only charges when it is switched on. Given I had used laptops in the stone age that only charged when turned on, I thought nothing of it at the time. This is not a high spec device, so there is no charging feedback other than the single light. Best of luck.

JoAnn the device comes with a black cord & on the side near the on/off keyboard switch is a plug in like you use for computers-slide it in this slot and you will see the red light come on the device as a sign it is charging. Hope this helps (:

There's a small micro-USB port on the side of the keyboard - near the switch. One charge lasts a LONG time.

You use the cable that came with keyboard with any USB charger, such as the one that came with your iPad. Or you plug into any powered USB port on a computer or USB hub. I find that the keyboard only needs to be charged for a few hours every two weeks or so, and works great on its internal batteries the rest of the time. You never have to shut it off, it powers down when it isn't used for a minute or so,

Keyboard battery is charging when red light is on. When it goes off it is charged. If it goes off after just a few minutes it probably wasn't discharged very much to begin with.

You can charge the keyboard by plugging it to a USB port of your PC or to a transformer (charger) that takes USB. I used the charger that came with my ASUS tablet. The keyboard has a micro USB port similar to the ASUS tablet and comes with a USB to micro USB cable. It does not include a transformer.

I don't remember if it was fully charged or not, but it was enough for me to sync it up with my iPAD. You need a Micro USB cable to charge the keyboard.

There is a small light on the keyboard that lights up while charging but my keyboard is not backlit.

Hi. I charge the keyboard connecitng it to the PC USB port all night long and only once a week. I turn it off when I am not using it. I use the keyboard around two hours a day. Sometimes I use my iPhone charger to charge the keyboard (3 hours).

To my knowledge, it's not possible. However, I did read somewhere that each charge is good for 40 to 50 hours of operation, so after about 15 to 20 hours of operation, I simply charge it back up toward assuring that I'm never surprised. As you're probably aware, the charging light goes off when the KB is fully charged. Hope this helps.

With moderate to heavy use, I get at least 5 or 6 days out of the mouse before I recharge it. The keyboard will go two weeks or more. Both would surely last much longer if I turned them off when I'm not using them; but I don't. Recharging takes about 20 minutes using the supplied usb cable.

The "LED indicator" is just a little light under a tiny panel under the on/off switch. On mine, a blue light comes on when it needs a charge. When I plug it in, a little red light comes on. When it's done, it goes out. Here's the thing, though; the keyboard sleeps when not in use for a couple of minutes extending the battery life for so long that I have only charged mine twiceand one of those two times was when I first received it. The battery life is incredible.

When the light disappears, the keyboard is fully charged. If it's red, that means it's charging.

It only takes a few hours the first time you charge it. Honestly, I got my keyboard a few months ago and have only had to charge it twice. This thing has a crazy long battery life.

I have only charged my keyboard occasionally. After the initial charge, by connecting the cable to any USB port on your computer, it has a fairly long operating time. I hope this helps.
