does this tablet use a standard (disconnectable) usb charger or or is the charging cable hard wired to it's transformer?

It's not a USB charger. The wire doesn't come off from the plug and the piece that connects into the tablet is like that of ear buds.

Totally standard USB. I use it to charge my Samsung Galaxy tablet when on the road or I could charge a second phone. Very handy charger.

I don't remember, it quit charging after a few weeks and so did the replacement! My best advice is steer clear of this Tablet!!

I have one of these tablets and the charger is a standard USB mini port - i use the same one I use for my blackberry and android phone. If you go to WalMart with your tablet, you can probably pick one up cheap by matching the plug to your tablet. As far as i know, the battery is not replaceable.

Easier still (and you'll have it for other things) get a DC to 110 volt AC converter, plug it into your car power outlet (we used to call them cigarette lighters) and plug in the charger that came with the tablet (then there won't be any question as to whether another "car charger" will work - or cause damage).

No it comes with a wall charger and that's what they recommend you use to charge the tablet. The USB cable is used to connect to your PC/laptop etc.

Hello! This case has a standard USB 2.0 (regular size, same one you find commonly in all computers, laptops, etc..) connector. My particular tablet is a MID 1060W, which came with a standard USB 2.0, so it plugs in w/o the need to have adapters. Bottom line this case comes with a ~10 inch long cable with USB 2.0 connector; this cable is right at the middle of the case. Hope this helps, regards.

It comes with a standard charging cord; I am not a tech guru, however I Googled both items and the picture that looks like the one that came with the unit is Mimi USB. Hope this helps.

Theres a specific type of power cord for it. however, i dont (and i repeat DONT) recommend this tablet. its just not worth the money. and also, i need a new power cord because mines literally snapped in half at the base of the cord (it isnt even fixable) and now my tablet is DEAD. Kauput! Deceased! Im saving up for a new tablet and i'll probably keep this one for my niece.. and that doesnt even make sense because she has a samsung galaxy tab already :/Back to the cord thing, just amazon or even ebay "charger for koby kyros 8-inch tablet" and you should get your answer :)

No charger cord like a laptop. Instead, you have an adapter that plus to the wall and has a USB PLUG ON ONE END AND A MICRO USB PLUG ON THE OTHER END. Micro USB plugs to the tablet while the full USB plugs to the wall adapter or a PC Full USB for its power. Charges much faster thru wall adapter.

Yes. However, its an old DC charger. The charging port broke in mine, my repair guy couldnt get the part to fix it, so he replaced it. Then it happened 2 more times and Ive only had it for 7 months. These tablets are junk.

You can plug the charging cord that came with tablet into it. But it didn't come anything but the stand

No, it requires a proprietary charger that is included with the tablet. You can search Amazon for TF701 charging cable to see the connector.

No, only the tablet itself comes with a power adapter. Both the tablet AND the keyboard dock have ports to plug in the ASUS Transformer's power adapter for charging.

Uhh, with a credit card????? Sorry, the weird personality pops up once in a while. On top of the tablet, centered, is a slot for the charger to plug into. If you have it connected to the keyboard, on the left side of the keyboard is the same plug in. Hope this helps.

The charging port, according to the description (and USB standard specs) is only used to provide power to the USB devices you plug in. This is so that you can use a USB external hard drive (for example) as the USB OTG port will not supply enough power to it. It is NOT intended to charge your phone or tablet.

Yes, it does. The charger is a USB cable and a USB wall converter, so you can plug your tablet into your computer to charge or you can use a wall USB wall plug.
