How long does it take to fully charge, and how long does it hold a charge when not in use? (i.e. does the charge drain whether you use it or not?)

I'd say it fully charges within 30 minutes. I haven't timed it though. When I use it it is only on for about 10 minutes and I had to recharge after about 4-5 days. The button to turn it on and off can be very difficult. Sometimes it is easy and comes right on and other times I have to keep trying.

I haven't used mine in quite a while, but I remember it taking a few hours at least to charge.

I could not tell: I used it only twice, to realize that it does not heat enough. it is not worth buying this...

I did not verified so far ... What I can say is that it is absolutely not worth the money: does not generate enough heat. Period!

From a full charge, I have turned mine on a month later and still had some charge left. It really depends on how often you use it. It works great with my Motorola Photon. I use mine mostly when I'm out and about all day and using my phone a lot. I've probably charged it up five times in six months. Hope that helps.

I've never timed it, but it seems to be only a couple of hours to go from dead to full charge. Keep in mind this device can be used while charging which will likely slow the charge down.

I would charge it for a full 15 hours before using it. They usually come partially charged, so doing a full charge is the best way to be sure.

Not sure how much time you'd be spending actively using it vs just having it ready to be used, but I am charging it every other day. I do find that it seems to take longer than other devices to re charge fully. And the cord is oddly short! I received a pop up Msg that encouraged me to close unused apps to preserve battery life. By long pressing the center button open apps appear and they swipe away to close.

Depending on how much time you use up while in use. I think the charge is set for 45 minutes when fully charged. If you read the instructions it will tell you to let it run down now and then to keep the battery in good shape. I sent my sister-in law one of these and she uses hers and lets it set off the charger for a few day's after a short use. So, depending how long a time you use it each time is my answer. I enjoy mine very much and have had it about a year. Good Luck, Ruth Young

I had mine sitting idle for about 6 months and then checked it and it was around a 50% charge. It didn't go dead or anything. And charging it took a couple hours if i remember right. But that was several years ago.

From what I am seeing online, you can keep it plugged in to last longer (charge it). It lasts for about 15 minutes when fully charged and lasts for a long, long time (no real time table for the battery though). Can be a year, can be 5 years depending on usage.

I bought 2 and immediately had a problem with one of them (which I returned). I do notice it doesn't hold a charge very long these days. I've had mine about 6 months but only use it on occasion. Good luck :)

Hello. I never actually timed it, but it seems like it only takes a few hours tops. It holds the charge good as we'll hope this helps a little.

As per the instructions you charge it for 12 hours then totally drain the battery 10 to 12 times. Not do it once. It has to do with battery memory. Also use a full 110 wall charger for charging and not a weak USB port to charge.

Hmm - I don't know that I've ever really checked the amount of time it takes to go from completely dead to a full charge. I normally just plug it in to an outlet and leave it for an hour or two and then it's good to go. You can also use the USB to charge it on your computer - which is nice. It's really a nice little charger - I use it all the time on trips, or if I know I'm going to be away from the house all day I'll keep it in my pocket just as a safety measure in case my phone battery dies.

Probably an hour for a full charge. I finally had to replace my battery because it would not hold a charge. Pull yours out and see if it is bulged in the middle. If so it is bad.

I charged it over night. So I don't know how long it actually took to charge. I do know the charge is good for a few hours of use, though. Sorry i can't be more specific.

You can use it right out the box, but I would estimate 2-3 hours to be fully charged. While its charging the light blinks and when fully charged it will turn off. Hope that helps...

How long will the the battery charger stay charged after It is fully charged? Like 1 month, 2 months? Will it lose its charge after a prolonged period?

I'm not quite sue--I've never used it long enough to drain a charge. My guess would be several hours. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
