What is the power source of the dock? Is it from a battery? from a computer?(laptop/desktop) or from a wall outlet?

Thank you for your interest in our kits! In regards to your inquiry, this scanner has a built-in 700mAh rechargeable lithium polymer battery. The unit would charge through the supplied USB to either the computer or AC Adapter. The AC adapter is not supplied.

I don't use a docking station to charge my phone so I really don't know the answer. Sorry, couldn't be more helpful.

The docking station is seperate but u can get it. The station has a hdmi out. The station also extend the time off the charger for an extra hour. So ur lookin at 4 hours of battery life without a charge. What I did to fix the issue of only having 1 usb port is brought a multi usb port. It plugs into the one on the tablet and there are 5 extra ports to use on the plug.

No, they are both powered by independent adapters. The docking station does not power the laptop.

I don't see how it could, that said. Your pc will charge it, so you shouldn't need the dock when it's connected to the pc.

This is just Docking station. It has 4 slots for plugging u.s.b.cords into it. You furnish the cords . It plugs into a standard wall outlet to supply power to the U.s.b. cords. Is basically a place to park your device while it is charging.

I'm not sure what you are asking. You plug it in to a normal power plug for power and connect to a computer via USB. Then you plug either a 3.5" sata internal drive or a 2.5" sata internal drive into the dock. the 3.5" drives normally are used by desktop computers and the smaller by laptop or notebook computers. They do have to be sata drives and NOT IDE which are pin drives. Hope this helps

While on the dock the regular power port is unused, so unless there is a deeper problem than just the power port I think it may take care of it.

I only use the dock to do a backup from my laptop so I power it up when I begin and then turn it off at the end. I've never left it on long enough to see if the drives power down after a period of inactivity. Sorry I can't be of more help.

It comes with its own 5V power brick ~ the power brick is only meant to be used with the dock and cannot be used with your laptop.

The docking station doesn't come with a power cable, but the one from laptop plugs directly in the back of the docking station.

No. It has to be plugged in to charge. The dock is just a pass-through for the charging cable. It doesn't have a separate battery to store power. That would make it much more expensive.

No. It does not power the laptop or charge the battery. There are two things to plug in while it is docked, the USB cable to the dock and the power cable for the laptop. So far the device is working perfectly.

No, there is no battery in the dock. It must be plugged in to charge the phone.

Not sure what adaptor you are referring to. I use USB from hp laptop to dock. Dock does not charge laptop

By the tone of the previous answers, I believe that they feel you are asking about the power required for the docking station. The responders are correct in stating the docking station needs a power connection. If you are referring to the ability of the docking station to supply power to your laptop via the USB connection, I would have to say that is entirely dependent on the laptop. My laptop (Dell) does not charge with the USB. External power must be connected to the laptop using the power brick. Hope this helps.

I am not sure of your exact question but it does have it's own power switch that powers both the docking station and the laptop .
