I am not sure if you are looking for a battery or solar, the solar I can answer. For a laptop you will need the highest wattage you can get. You will also need an adapter to go from the Solar charger to the laptop. I do not know if you can find one on line or have to make it, that "PLUG" would have to atatch to your battery port on the laptop. I have a "SOLAR 12" It works great on my tablet even while I'm using it. I hope this helps you. SPM

If you are looking to simply charge a iPhone, iPad, or android phone then I would look into getting a Jackery Giant power source . (I'm not sure if a Jackery Giant would power a laptop as they all range in size and battery size) but if you wanted this Schumacher anyway it would probably charger your phone, iPad, and computer for a week straight if not more . I'm not sure the exact calculations but it would defenitely have more than enough power to charge small devices. Remeber this is used to jump start a car or truck battery, a phone or laptop is no match for this product... And at this price you can't go wrong .

I have a small Acer notebook, it works as a charger or back up battery, once it saved me for 3 hours and still had 75% power remaining, I guess it depends how big your computer is, to prove it once, I charged mi iPod and phone 3 times each in it, then it was time to reload power.

Anything that will take a USB plug seems to work - I use it with what is normally an iPad charger. It would probably even charge up off a usb port on a computer eventually.

It is best to get a notebook battery with extended life then you have two batteries. The Anker doesn't have enough power to recharge a notebook.

Hi Joanzy, Thank you for your second question for Shop Akari. The iBattz Mojo Vogue BattStation has a capacity of 5600mAh and it has an output voltage of 1A and according to IBattz it can charge up to 2 full cycles of your iPhone (4S and 5).While this may be enough for most iPhones and smart phones, this is slower than what iPads and other phablets can take and may not fully charger the iPad (maybe only about 25-50%). Please feel free to contact me with any other questions you may have. Happy Holidays! Lulu Shop Akari (713)869-4656

I was able to get a charge to my iPad while on battery power alone. I think I remember reading though that if the battery starts getting low the unit will discontinue charging via USB in an effort to conserve battery life.

You can use any USB -> micro/ipod/ipad cable to charge your device. The included cable is only "required" for charging the battery, althouggh the short cable is convenient when used to charge your phone

I don't see why not but it probably won't charge fully do to iPad being a bigger battery. It will give you enough juice to get you by til you get a real charge.

Any USB cable with suitable micro plug will do. I use an iPhone ac USB adapter and a battery backup charger when necessary.

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.

A good battery would be Duracell or Energizer. I personally use the 12 volt adaptor and a 12 volt battery.

Sorry the Veho Pebble battery is not big enough to charge either of these items. You will need a more powerful battery. There are portable charging devices for these items, I am not sure which is the best you, would be better Google searching potable battery charger for IPad.

To charge, I would use th chord provided. To use the battery, you can use any USB chord.

Just get a portable charger pack designed to recharge cellphones, tablets, and other USB devices. It's essentially just a big battery with a USB socket, like Mike described.You should be able to compute the runtime it will give you by finding out its capacity (rated in mA hours) and dividing by 500 mA. For instance, a 5000 mAh pack will give you 10 hours of operation.

It does not need to be a computer, any usb charger will do. I use my iPad charger most of the time.

I copied this from the comment in the review above from 880 User: "This battery can definitely be charged and is meant for convenience. It does not come with an adapter so perhaps that's where your confusion is? At any rate, not sure what you're thinking but just use your iPhone wall charger and provided USB cable to charge it up, then carry it with you and use your iPhone charge cable plugged into this guy to charge your iPhone - over and over. The whole premise is based on extending your iPhone battery for convenience (and emergency) not just a one time use".
