I bought this as a xmas gift for my daughter. Alot of people said you can use an adapter and plug it into the wall just as you would a phone.

Yes it can charge without using the PS3 I use my surround sound reciever to charge my controllers. iPhone chargers work as well.

As a general rule of thumb, any USB device that can connect to a USB power supply will charge. There isn't such a concept as "wall charger only" anymore, since electricity passes through USB devices. So, I would say yes.

I charge it using my Moto X charger. So, I will assume you could use an iPhone charger also. Perhaps someone have used an iPhone charge, but I don't own an iPhone so I cannot confirm that it will work.

No you have to charge it from your computer. It's has a USB hookup that you could plug into your computer or just use an iPhone charger to plug into the wall.

It's not a charger but there is an adaptor that you would plug into an outlet. It's not a charge and use device--it remains plugged in to the wall.

It comes with a USB cord but no wall charger. You can use an iPhone charger if you have one.

Not exactly,you will receive a usb charger in the box it came with so you are good to go with that, the wall mount charger for the usb cable is with an american socket (and maybe more countries) but as i live in europe i just use my usb port on the computer or another usb wall chargher like iphone/samsung. Hope this helps.

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".

The plug is a little hard to plug in but yes, it can charge without an adapter. The adapter is more for iPhone docks. Hope this helps!

no - charge from a USB plug only. I have a wall charger for my bluetooth headset that I use as a wall charger if I need it.

I you have, say, a tablet or phone charger where you can unplug the USB cable and have the AC wall adapter seperate, you can use it to charge this device. Just take the wall adapter and plug a microUSB cable into the device and it will charge (you can use the microUSB cable that comes with e devce or use one that you use for your phone or tablet etc.)

It comes with a cable with 4 or 5 adapter ends: micro usb, mini usb, psp, etc. You have to use the cable and one of the adapters (psp or ps3) to CHARGE the battery. You can use any usb cable to power your devices from the battery. I only use the cable that comes with the product for charging. I use a standard micro usb to power my hotspot, a standard 30 pin Apple cable to power my ipad2 and an Apple lightning cable to power my iphone 5.

You could use any generic micro-USB cable (B Type) to charge this. As far as the wall charger is is concerned, you can use any 5Volts /1 Amp USB wall charger, I use the wall charger of my old android phone with that spec and it works just fine. Here's a link to how this cable looks like: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-USB-Cable-Micro-Meters/dp/B003ES5ZSW

You'll need an additional adapter to charge from a wall socket. The unit only ships wih a USB charger.To note, most of your cell phone chargers already come with the "USB to wall socket" adapter, so you may actually have one already.

You can charge via USB with its microUSB port. What I prefer to do is to use an Apple iPhone charger to trickle charge it slowly, or the larger, 2 amp iPad charger when I predict I'll need it sooner rather than later. Hope this answer helps.

Sorry, I can't help you with the iPhone; not an Apple kind of guy. You can contact the manufacturer and they may be able to supply an adapter separately. What I can tell you is this: The charger's certainly capable of charging your device. I charge 2 Samsung Note 10.1 2013 using the supplied cable and the cable supplied by Samsung. It will also charge a phone using micro USB. If you already have the charger, have you tried using the cable that came with your iPhone? That's your choice if you want to try that, but I would if it were mine. Use the highest power output connection on the charger. Since the cable is not supplied by Apple, you may have to turn your device off while it charges. Sorry I wasn't able to help more.

It uses a wall charger, no USB here. The unit has a big battery and seems to last forever so I am guessing it needs more juice than a USB charger can provide.
