Charge the device using a computer USB port, or a USB charger that plugs into the wall or 12 volt car adapter. The device in turn can charge a cell phone or tablet using a USB charging cable.

Ann - I have two of these. You can charge the device two ways. First, you can attach the USB cord that it comes with to a computer's USB port to charge. Or, you can attach the USB cord to an AC adapter like those that come with iPhones and plug it into a wall outlet to charge. I use mine as a hand warmer and as a way to charge my iPhone and iPad. Hope that helps.

I charge mine with my computer or in the hub by my bedside. I can't remember if it came with a wall charger or not. I have an ANKER hub (bought thru Amazon $20 or so) that works with everything & makes life sooo easy. I have several hand warmers, but the one is my favorite. It gets really hot enough to know its there. With the others, I find myself thinking it will get hotter soon, be patient ... they don't. I have Lupus & fibromyalgia with Neuropathy & numbness in my hands & arms. This heater is the only one that really helps. I traded one of them for some jewelry and regretted it. I will be buying another soon. I hope this helps! I charge mine with my computer or in the hub by my bedside. I can't remember if it came with a wall charger or not.

Same as charging any other device by USB. Plug a charging cable in to the micro-USB port (not the USB port), then you can charge it with a wall adapter/your computer/etc.

Plug it in to charge it, then recharge when the battery is low. It runs a long time on a charge.

You can charge the battery via USB 2.0 cables. You do not have to take the battery out, it can be charged while inside the device. A blue and orange flashing light will indicate that the battery is charging.

You need a micro-USB cable to charge this device. Just search for that on Amazon and you will see a lot of cables you can use. Good luck.

It will charge via USB. If you have something to plug the USB cable into (the other end is micro-USB, which plugs into the device) then you are set.

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

What actually chargers the device is a Mini-USB cable. Though if your looking for what it comes with, with the adapters, then this is what you need: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0034JKJ6Y/ref=s9_simh_gw_p422_d0_i6?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER

The equipment comes w/ a USB cable. Plug it into anything that holds a USB cable & getting electricity. That will charge it. It doesn't matter. It could be a computer, a power cord w/ a USB outlet, or anything that is plugged in and have a USB outlet. Just look at it like an electrical outlet, where you plug something in to get electricity.

I generally plug mine into the computer. If you have a Wall adapter , you can charge that way as well. It doesn't come with one though.

The unit comes with a usb cord for charging. Plug the usb cord into a power adapter and the unit will start charging.

There is a micro USB port on the SIDE of the device. Connect that to either your computer (via a regular USB connector) or a charger for your smart phone works too. I use my iPhone charger for mine. It's a great little battery, so convenient about the size of 2 credit cards. You won't be sorry. From what I remember it comes with a cord with appropriate ends and a small wall charger but, not positive. At any rate, there are several easy ways to charge it.

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

There's a mini USB on the end of it. Plug that in with he cable that came with it and plug the other end into a USB charger.

I don't know what kind of battery it has but it's a good one. You charge it with a cable with a typical micro USB end. The kind that charges most android phones and tablets. Plug it into a wall outlet or a USB port on a computer. Takes several hours to fully charge but it lasts.
