Does this product connect directly to the battery or through the bottom charging port?

The product connects directly to the battery in order to offer a true 100% battery boost. A battery case connects to the bottom charging port will introduce a minimum 30% energy loss when transferring energy from the case to the S5.

Mine came with a wall plug that hooked directly to the battery. You have to remove the battery for it to charge but it's not that bad.

I have it connected to a deep cycle battery on my ex and it does not charge it. I am very disappointed with it so far.

use a cigarette lighter USB adapter. If you need to hook up directly to battery add a cigarette lighter socket with battery clips.

Yes it does. If you have a permanent charger connection, this goes directly connected to it.

The charging port is located on the bottom of the case & is accessible by a pulling the access door open. The case is opened by 2 hinge like claps that apply pressure between the 2 piece case keeping an air tight seal. Hands down I think its the best case I've purchased!

In my experience, it is rather transparent to the user. Plug the cable into the microUSB port in the battery case, and both are charged in sequence -- see the charging question below.

It trickle charges. The charger has no way of telling when the battery is full so it keeps supplying 5 volt power to the USB port. Personally I prefer this as it means the battery is 100% charged in the morning.

The bottom is actually flat and so that it can connect to charger. It comes with a charging stand that you can leave it it for more sturdiness but mine sits on the floor

Everyone else is right; it connects directly to the USB port. If you want to buy something else, consider the military grade screen protector.

No, does not mate directly to a charger only to the connector attached to the charger body.

You don't have to remove the bottom part when are charging it. The only time you have to remove it is when you have it connected to a raidio or speakers

No, it attaches through Bluetooth,but it will drain your battery very fast using blue tooth. Only good for 2 to 3 hours.

Mine works great with it placed on the lower back side toward the charging port.

There are two ports on the camera. One is for downloading pictures to your computer and is located on the side of the camera by the "MOVIE" button. The other port is for charging the camera and it is located on the bottom of the camera by the 'BATTERY" compartment. Have you tried the bottom port?

Yes. The battery clips in to the device and there are two prongs that need to connect to the bottom of the battery.

When inserting a battery do not push the battery all the way in. The bottom of the battery (where the connectors are not located) will slightly protrude out of the charging unit but the battery will still charge. This is evident by the color change LED light on the top of the unit.
