If you're lucky, you recharge via USB, assuming your device still works. These are cheaply designed and requires a special cord which is fragile.

For the Aluratek APB04F 10000mAh and APB02F 8000mAh battery packs, you plug the micro usb into the port and the regular usb into either your computer usb port or a usb wall plug. I believe the APB01F 5000mAh battery comes with a recharge cable that you plug directly into the charging port of the battery pack and the usb end goes into either your computer usb port or a usb wall plug just as the other two models.

There is a button on the bottom of the charger for power. Once you take your device off charge it will shut down automatically after a minute or so.

Unplug it, let it drain conpletely. The recharge it. Make sure it is charging and charge it no less than 6 hours. I found the battery lasts a long time but needs about 30% to power up. Charging for 3 hours wasn't wasn't enough. If it doesn't work ten sed it back . It needs a good but of power to start

Yes, the battery goes down. I added a powered USB to the device that extends the battery, but still the battery level goes down meaning it does not charge as fast as it discharges.

Take the battery out for five minutes. Pres and hold the power button for 30seconds and but the battery back in. Turn the device back on and it should began to power up and charge.

There are two ways to charge up your battery pack. One way (slower) is to use a USB cable from your computer to the battery pack (computer has to be on). The best way is to get s USB to Mini cable and an AC adapter that plugs into an outlet and has a USB opening. Listen if you go to Amazon.com lookup the Battery Pack you will see "other items purchased" that adapter I mentioned will be listed. Good luck

external battery pack is keep in safe place. If batteries die, just plug in the battery pack and it will power the door until you can repalce internal battery.

I would call Midland for that answer. I simply crank mine to charge it when needed or occasionally recharge it by plugging it in the wall when it seems to run low on power.

The cord that comes with the external power bank has a USB end and the other end attaches to your device. The external power bank is charged by plugging the USB end into a USB outlet and the other end into the external power bank. Once charged, you have power on the go. No batteries needed.

Try a different cable, or a different charger, maybe discharge it completely and recharge.

Or you can buy one of those quick battery pack rechargers for phones and use that. Unfortunately, you'll have to take a break from using it to recharge it.

Let the battery discharge itself by unplugging the 110V Power Source from the computer and let the computer drain the battery until it shuts down. (Busy yourself while this is happening) After this, Plug in the power source again and allow the battery to recharge itself. (with or without the computer operating) If the battery does not reach 100%/98% in a reasonable time, contact HP for a new battery

You might try leaving it charge over night after completely emptying it. You need to train your battery from the beginning to fully charge otherwise it will only charge up to the level you trained it to.

It can be recharged through the USB port on a computer or you can buy a separate AC wall plug that the USB connector on the battery pack plugs into.

There is a small plastic plug that has to be stuck into the side of the battery. It's a place where one could attach a power cord when the battery isn't charged enough. The plastic plug is in parts envelope.
