Can I use the USB cord to charge it (like when we are in the car)?

My son uses a car charger designed for a cell phone... we purchased one with interchangeable ends and it had one of the tiny round ends that fit his tablet.

Yes. It's not a 'fast charge' like some phone car chargers are. But charges about the same rate as if you had the phone connected to a PC.

Yes it does come with the usb cord tl charge it. To use it in a car just turn your radio to the appropriate channel. Connect the device to a phone or ipod and then you can listen to music.

Yes, and it uses standard USB and micro USB connectors. Preferred method is to let it charge by plugging it in to a computer's USB port while you copy or replace songs on it. You can also use any wall outlet or car charger with USB ports to use away from the computer or while travelling. You can use or replace it with any micro-to-standard USB cord. You don't have to worry about the device being rendered useless if anything happens to your original charger cord.

Hi DeniseO, To charge it, you can use your computer (takes a while) or a cellphone charger with micro usb (quicker).

Same way you charge a cell phone. In car or home plug into wall charger or computer USB.

Yes. Any micro USB will charge the device. 15 to 20 minutes. Honestly, I've forgotten to charge and used my car charger on the ride to my destination and it worked well.

Yes you can, but in the long run it's not good for the battery. It also has the car charger.

I've used it while it's charging. The cord is a pain while it's plugged in. But yes you can.

It's custom there is no way to charge it other then when it's plugged into your cigarette lighter. I only use it in my car & it charges when I have it plugged in. Unfortunately my car only charges when the car is running whereas some cars will charge when the key is not turned. This Garmen cannot be charged with a USB connector. Newer models may be able to but this one doesn't.

Yes, I have a usb port in my car so I always have it connected to the charger while in use. It works great while it's charging or not.

Yes, there is another USB port on the car charger that you can charge another device with, if you have another supplied cable.

If you have a USB plug, you can use that to charge it. You can also use the computer.

Yes you can use your car charger to charge the unit, however, it will take a lot longer to charge than if you were to use an adapter and an outlet.

Yes, no problem at all... A/C or your car charger will both work the same way ; you'll just be able to charge cord free when you use the pad.
