This charger also has a usb port. Will this only charge when plugged into the wall or will it charge when connected with a USB cable (i.e. in the car)

It will do both. You can remove the battery off the phone then charge it or charge it with the USB cable. I charge mine with the USB cable so that I don't have to remove the phone case.

I don't have a cable to test this, my car cable is small HDMI, this requires a large USB. I think what they did is since they are taking up the electrical outlet, they allow you to continue plugging in the USB for other charging, say the phone with the battery inside.

It comes with a USB charger. If you want a wall or car charger, use a standard micro USB charger.

I think a car charger is available, but it does not have a USB port. It does stay charged for a while though.

The one I purchased did not have a car charger ... just a wall charger. I would love to have a car charger. Anyone know how to get one?

I believe the included accessories in the one I have allowed for charging either by 1) 120V standard outlet or 2) lighter port in car. I do not believe this allows USB connection charging.

yes. as has been stated, the charger plugs into the wall, but it also comes with a cord to use in a automobile as well

To clear up the bunch of stupid 1/2 answers: It has a micro USB jack on it but the charger itself is only for plugging into the wall. The other end of the charging cable is of course the micro USB connector that fits into the micro USB jack on the device. Any micro USB charger you already have will work to charge it.

It comes with a usb cord and adapter for it so you can plug it into your wall outlet for charging. It recharges quickly. But you can not plug into your car this is a big no do.

The charger can plug into the wall, or into a car cigarette lighter. I have been very happy wiht it.

Yes, it plugs directly into the wall AC outlet. There is also a cord with a DC plug attached for use in the car.

It comes with a usb charger. You can purchase a wall charger that has a usb plug. I use the one that came with my cell phone.

The charger plugs into the wall. There is a USB slot that you could plug your own USB cord into and it will charge the battery in your phone from the USB cord at the same time as the extra battery charges from the wall charger.

Hi Ashley, just to be clear, the unit only charges batteries when plugged into the wall outlet. Also one thing that might not be apparent is the fact that while you can charge electronics using the USB charger, it does NOT charge them while you are charging anything else. If you are charging a few AA batteries and plug a cell phone into the USB plug, the unit will wait until the AA batteries are charged BEFORE it will charge the cell phone plugged into the USB port. Keep in mind, you can charge something through the USB port while batteries are discharging. However, once the batteries are done discharging, the USB charging port will shut off when the batteries start to charge. Hope this helps.

this is a phone charger with a removable plug in. A lot of the newer cars have usb ports in them to charge things. so this can either be plugged into a wall socket or remove the plug in adapter and use a usb plug in.

It only plugs into the wall. I didn't get the car charger with mine. The plug pins also folds in making it much easier to carry. I have used this for a few months now and I like the charger and the batteries hold their charge for a long time, even under heavy use; I used to have to change batteries after 3 or 4 hours of recording, not now. The batteries look a little awkward, but after you use them for awhile, you don't even notice.

No. It only charges through USB. However, USB wall chargers are available separately.http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_8?url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords;=usb+wall+charger&sprefix;=usb+wall%2Celectronics%2C249

As a general rule of thumb, any USB device that can connect to a USB power supply will charge. There isn't such a concept as "wall charger only" anymore, since electricity passes through USB devices. So, I would say yes.
