Can you charge the charger and your phone simultaneously? (e.g. plug charger to phone base & connect charger to power source)

I think the phone base has to be fully charged. So no. But don't buy this if you have a iPhone 5. It does not stay put, it's really loose and you have to hold it together with your hands or place it carefully on a flat surface to get it to charge.

good question, i never thought about it. i dont see why not. it will only take longer since it has more load, more phones at the same time charging. ill have to try it personally.-freddy

the cable from the power source plugs in the back of the dock thru a usb port in the dock, then a separate cable from the dock plugs in the phone to charge. you don't have to do it each time unless u want the phone charging all the time, the only time I charge mine is when it gets below 40%. the cord from the dock that plugs into the phone is kind of short,,,maybe 4 in long which at times can be hard to manage..other then that I have no complaints

Yes. The charger has the same plug for charger the same as the USB charger which comes with the phone. When the phone slide on the charger case makes contact with the male pin and activating the button on the back start charging the phone . The charger has the same USB charger as the phone as well for charging the charger and the phone. You need to have the button on in order to charge both , in other wise will be charged only the case .

Yes, it can charge the phone at the same time. Use the turn on the "location" button, and the "car mode" button and use it hands free!

I haven't found that it does, although I don't tend to use the charger to also charge the phone at the same time, as one can. Instead, I simply use the charger to charge an extra battery while I'm using the phone, and carry it around with me. If I have a particularly heavy day, I'll just swap out the battery from the phone and substitute the fully charged battery from the charger, then when I get home, use the charger to recharge the depleted battery.

I called their customer service & they said the thing connected to AC charge & to a phone simultaneously will charge the phone first and then charge the battery pack after that... their words, not mine...

Yes it can do both simultaneously. You can charge multiple devices and plug this power bank cable into AC outlet for charging the device itself.

Yes you can, but it's best to finish everything and let it charge sense this charger has a power limit.

Yes, it has its own charger. You have to already have a base to connect the phone to.

Yes, you can. There is a flap that covers the port for the charger. Simply lift it up and plug your charger in.

The end of the charger has a small port that the wall charger plugs into. If you plug the small charge wire plug that comes out from the edge of the charger into the phone and the wall charger into the end of the battery charger in the small port you will be able to charge both the extra battery and the phone at the same time. I wish I knew how to send pictures it would show you better than I can describe. Good luck. Hope this helps!

It comes with a charge cord that has a USB connection on one end and a phone connection on the other end. You can charge from a computer or 110v outlet using a plug with a male 110 prongs and a female USB connection. You can piggyback the charger and phone and charge both at the same time.
