Power Bank just arrived. There doesn't seem to be any to charge it. How do I charge it. What is difference in USB 5V 2.1A/1A?

First off throw away the cable and ends that came with it.Next plug a USB cable into the small USB plug on the side by itself.use any USB charging source.A dedicated 1 amp or bigger charger is best.The 2.1 & 1A are for power.1a will do a phone 2.1a should do a tablet.Hope this helps.

You charge it using a mini usb cable and any usb charger or the usb port on your computer. The 1A port is for lower power devices like an iPhone and the 2.1A port is for high power devices like an iPad.

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

Charges via USB or using a conpatible phone charger with USB port. Before loading any device, you first read the instructions for loading it, there a few amperes specified to load. I do not recommend the product, I do not charge more than 50% of my battery Samsug galaxy s4. Having a 2200 mha battery not understand how this power of 20000mha bank is not able to load

Any mini USB cable will charge it. check your old charges they are were the standard. You can find them on Amazon or Ebay (do new only). Just look in the slot; if shaped like a pyramid (mini); if shaped straight and skinny (micro)

Is the USB port 2.0 and powered? Mine won't charge off the old USB 1.1 on my old (2001) computer.

Plug it in and charge it. The charge just disappears with no use. After it charges for a time the front screen will come up and tell you the charging %. It will take a day to fully recharge.

So far as I know, the only way to charge it is via the USB connector: mini-USB to the device, USB to my computer or other USB charging device.

The cord that comes with the external power bank has a USB end and the other end attaches to your device. The external power bank is charged by plugging the USB end into a USB outlet and the other end into the external power bank. Once charged, you have power on the go. No batteries needed.

A USB cord is supplied. You plug it into your computer or a USB adapter (not included) to charge . I bought a second battery and a generic charger off of eBay. So I have a spare charged battery that I switch when needed.

Yea it comes with a regular usb cable to mini usb. The mini USb side charges the unit. You can't charge your phone on it if that's what you're asking. No 'power bank'

Connect the small end of the power bank cable to the powerbank then put a connector on the other end then plug it in

Hi,I have not received this unit so far and it is more than 30 days! I have now sent message to seller to refund it. They gave me tracking ID for http://en.4px.com/index.php?option=com_tracking4px and it is not showing any status so far.If I will receive it any how (chances are too less) I will surely let you know.There are other power banks which are available on Amazon and I borrowed one from my friend and it has small lights indicator showing level of charge.

You plug the USB into your computer to charge it. I've also plugged it into an apple ipad charger, which seemed to work fine.

What method have you been using to charge it? Usb to pc or usb to power adapter? Also, have you tried using a different cable? I would try holding the power button down a bit longer than usual just to see if it eventually comes on. Hoping it fires back up for ya!

I believe you are supposed to use the USB connector from the Trent device and plug it into your computer it the wall adapter. Once connected, the lights on the device should light up in a series to indicate that it is charging. In my case, it stopped working after a month or so. I would plugit in to charge and the lights that indicate charge would stop after a few seconds. I would leave it plugged in for hours and come back to a non charged portable battery. It's now a paper weight.

i was having this issue as well...but i read that there is a RED light that turns on when the battery is charging...so i played with the USB that is plugged into the unit, and found that the red light turns on when its plugged about HALFWAY in. i checked, and it IS in fact charging. try adjusting the B side of the USB (mini part thats in the actual unit) before you return it.

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.

Greetings. Could you please help to inform what product you used the charger to charge? Did you use the original USB cable of your equipment? Thank you.

Below the full USB port, which you would use to charge your phone, there is a micro USB port. So you basically need to reverse the charging cable, and the end you would normally put into a phone or tablet, now goes into the smaller slot under the full sized USB port, and the other end of the cable (full size USB), is plugged into either a laptop, or a USB wall chargers, or USB plug socket charger. I hope this helps to answer your question, and enjoy this great powerbanks. I take mine with me everywhere :-) Regards, Ben Waters
