Can you charge devices while the battery pack is plugged in and charging?

Yes. You absolutely can. I use it while I'm traveling and it is the only charger I use while traveling. I found on a couple rare occasions I had the device switched on and it didn't automatically turn itself off and didn't accept the charge from the wall. Most of the time I don't have this issue and it recharges the battery as well as my connected phone and other devices.

No. While the Jackery is charging itself, it can not be turned on to charge devices that are attached to it. The Jackery can only be turned on when it is not connected to its power source (mini-USB on the Jackery end, USB on the power source end).

Yes. It needs to be on in order to charge any device could be in sleep mode if you want.

Yes, you can use it while it's plugged in. I've done it with my iPad and my cell phone.

No you are not able to use while charging. Once you plug it in a safety switch prevents it from being used while charging. Hope this answers your question

Yes, you can charge the Samsung smartphone while the power bank is being charged. However, just like Le said the battery will become very hot if you choose 2A input and output, which will short the life of the battery pack. On the other hand, there is power waste while charging, when you charge your phones while charging the battery pack, the power waste will double.

You can leave the battery in and use the USB plug that comes out of the bottom of the device and charge it that way. You can also use a non rechargeable battery if you choose.

yes, but slowly. In particular, if you're charging the pack via 2 amp, and charging your device via the 1 amp, the battery pack will slowly charge. Otherwise, it is just a pass through when you're charging the pack via 2.1 amp and your device via the 2 amp output.... basically the battery pack will never charge up really. It is still totally worth it.

Yes you can use it while it is charging .When I get the low battery tone, I plug it in, power it up and it reconnects with my phone while it charges.The light turns red while charging and green when fully charged.

No. You can't use it while charging the battery... you need to put the headset in the dock to charge.

Yes, However you may purchase chargers that take less time to charge. I own several batteries and chargers and charge them overnight when I am taking lots of photographs on a trip for example.

If you are referring to USB power packs for charging phones, yes you can. Just be aware that different battery packs are going to respond differently to the auto retry function. Some won't mind while others will be slow to charge when the auto retry reconnects (this is a safety feature with many battery packs to avoid charging a fully charged battery with full current). Other battery packs may cease charging if power is interrupted. So you might want to experiment here. But I've had good luck with charging USB battery packs with the Scharger 14.

I do not know for certain, but i belive you might be able to do that , but it would most likely keep the power pack on a low battery until you let it charge without draining it at the same time. I hope that helps

Yes you can use it while charging, this is my third one, can't remember the others names but they were pos. This one is the best by far.

Yes. The battery pack uses advanced Texas Instruments Battery Management IC. So you can charge the battery pack at the same time when it is charging your phones.

It charges while plugged in. It basically replaces the batteries and you plug the charger into the hole in the device, not the battery pack.

Yes. I leave it plugged in since I use it at home. If the battery runs out, it will take some time before it charges enough to use again. I expected it to work as soon as I plugged it in but it didn't.
