Just got this item. How do you charge the keyboard. I got the USB cord but no charger. Do I connect it to the computer?

The charging cable attaches to any USB source. So, yes, you can charge via your computer.

There is a very small cable that comes with a USB charger that connects to the keyboard on tour PC. I guess you can always purchase a charger elsewhere. The connector is very similar to a HTC or a Blackberry phone. I haven't tried to charge it with anything else that the cable the case comes with.

There is a mini usb port on the keyboard, but it is only used for charging the battery of the bluetooth keyboard. You can't, for example, plug a USB mouse into the keyboard and have it function.

If you have a keyboard, you got a cord with a USB connection. That hooks to your computer for the charge. There are USB adapters that plug into wall outlets that may work. You would plug your unit into the adapter then the wall. I have not tried this, you may want to check with the manufacturer to see if this will work.

There is a USB cable accompanying the case. Provide an initial charge to the keyboard by plugging into the keyboard and the USB into any Powered USB port. The packaging for the charging cable is provided with the item.

There is a little usbport on one of the edges of the keyboard. The other end of the cable plugs into a regular usb ac adapter like the ones you get with modern cellular phones. Or you can plug it into a usb port on a computer, but that method of charging is usually slower.

A charging cord should have come packaged with the keyboard. It charges by being plugged in to a USB port.

What you see is the charging input that connects by USB like a phone charger. The keyboard does not have a USB port to plug a USB into. It's like the old blackberry charger port that uses USB cable to charge keyboard

The charging cable should have come in the box under a cardboard, rectangular slot next to where the keyboard was held. If the slot was empty when you rec'd the keyboard, you should return the product to Amazon for one that is complete. It will be an even exchange, but you will have to pay for shipping.

Plug in the usb cable into the keyboard and inot a computer that is turned on. Wait for the light to change color or go off. If the keyboard is low on power, it has taken mine 4 hours to recharge..

charge it first with the usb cable. After charging, switch on the blue tooth on the side of the keyboard. Insert ipad in the case. use the key board with blue tooth switchhed on. The key board needs charging every day.

Hi guys. I have the same question. I spoke to a rep at Logitech who advised against it. As she seemed kind of brain dead I didn't place much faith in her answer so I emailed them to see if I could get a more authoritative response. I'll let you all know when (and if) I hear back. Great keyboard though. [Edited 10-26-12] OK...so here is the response I got from Logitech: "..., from your e-mail, I understand that you are having some query with your Logitech Wireless Illuminated Keyboard K800 charging activity. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and I will certainly do my best to resolve your concern. ----, regarding your query, the reason would be simple. The battery might burn out or over heat even if you use the USB charging cord. Thank you." So I guess the bottom line is that we better not leave it plugged in.

It does not come with a charger; however, it does use the same charger as your tablet. I just charge one and then the other. The keyboard seems to hold a charge longer than my tablet.

The usb cable that comes with the keyboard plugs into the keyboard and your usb samsung tablet charger....plug into the wall outlet.....you cannot charge both (the tablet and keyboard) at the same time (in the wall outlet) unless you have an extra usb charger....go to settings turn your bluetooth on....push the link button that is on the keyboard (upper right hand corner)....give it a few seconds....should be good to go.....note : i have been pleased with the battery/charge life with this keyboard.....i use it with my samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 model GT-P5113

There is a special USB port for the keyboard. USB 2.0 Type B plug on one end and the regular USB on the other for your computer, which does not come with the keyboard. Hope that helps.

I purchased this item new and have it working but they never packed a charger cord with this Keyboard. How do I get one to replace it? I have contacted Trent on the IMP39B Embassy Keyboard Case for iPad 2 Sold by: New Trent Inc to try and get another but if I do not hear back from them I will have to return it. Is there another cord that will work for charging this item?
