Does Re-charging need to be done with an IPad charging base. Lost USB to mini-USB cable, What is easiiest way to charge?

Yes it must be charged with an IPad charging base. You unplug the cable from the IPad from the base that goes into the outlet and plug in the charging cord that comes with the speaker into the base. Pretty easy to charge and fairly quickly.

Does not work with iPad charging base. You need an USB mini connection for the speakers.

The speaker comes with a charging cable that plugs into a standard wall outlet. The other end is a USB connector that plugs straight into the speaker. Super simple.

Comes with its own cable with USB end. Plug into a laptop or wall socket adapter.

I'm pretty sure the charging base would not work to charge the speakers. Instead you can use any USB mini to regular USB, like a camera cable or any other device. Ie cellphone

Mine holds a charge for days, I use it every day and have had it for almost a year and a half. I have never had a problem with mine, I absolutely love it! I'm sorry you're having a problem. I'm assuming you toggled the little switch next to the charging port to ON?? Which generation of iPad do you have?

Hi Jack,I bought this for my wife for Christmas. It is charged through USB only, which is a problem for her because she wanted to use it from her iPad. It works OK, but if the battery gets low she can't recharge it without USB.

I'm using an ipad2 and what I found is that the usb hub does charge it but I have to power it down.

I charged my iPad twice with no problem. That was the most I used it between charges. It may have charged it again but I did not try.

It uses a standard USB charger. I do not have an IPAD, but if the Ipad has a USB standard slot it should work fine

You are using a third party/after market USB wall charger that is not providing sufficient current to charge your device. Please try charging the device with the original Apple charger for the specified device. For the iPad Air/iPad 4th Gen, you will need to use the Apple iPad USB charger that provides 2.4 amps.

Use the wall charger that came with the iPhone and the cable that comes with the unit. It only takes a few hours for a full charge and I get about 7-8 charges for my iPhone- not sure about iPad but would be considerably less. When charging my bf's Samsung galaxy it only will charge about 3 times. Charge lasts a loong time when not being used.

No i don't. I use it for a phone. I think the ipad has a proprietary charger/cable, so please double check.

Hi Rita. Yes just connect the charger that came with your Ipad to the Power Bank. It is very powerful. Clyde S

It can only be charged by USB.... AC Charger (with USB plug) is a lot quicker though.. It works great... charges my ipad about 2.5 times

I charge it when I have to re-charge the ipad.. it all depends on if you forget to shut it off & how much you use it..... like I have a time or two....

Anything that will take a USB plug seems to work - I use it with what is normally an iPad charger. It would probably even charge up off a usb port on a computer eventually.

First off the USB plug is not compatible with the ipad charging port. If you have an adapter for the usb keypad to the ipad port it might. Haven't tried it. I have some adapters and might give it a try later.

I also think you refer to the charging cord, for when you place your ipad mini into the Coverbot Case it is connected and as long as it is charged it should work. Perhaps you could take your ipad mini in the Coverbot Case to a place such as Best Buy's Geek Squad to confirm or remove your concern that something is missing. I don't think they would charge you and if something is actually missing they might have it or could direct you to a source. The techs at Office Depot are usually eager to help and are unlikely to charge you unless they have what you might need. Again, I suspect you are referring to the charger that, if you've placed your ipad in the Coverbot Case correctly, the access slot for charging is entirely accessible. Good Luck!

If you plug in iPad into most USB ports, it will display as "not charging". Most USB ports do not put out enough power to charge an iPad quickly, although it is trickle charging. Or are you getting the not charging notification using the wall charger?
