I returned my Rokit Boost after 3 weeks - it stopped charging. I finally settled on the Unu and it works very swell. It charges with no problem, keeps my phone charged for 18 hours. I love it. Trust me, I've tried several, including the Rokit, and this is the best case I've ever had. It's been 10 weeks and it is still going strong.

I generally leave mine on overnight, but I know it doesn't need that much time. Never had one go completely dead, so don't know about that. When I observe it running really slow, I put it on the charger when done using it at that time. I find mine (and I've owned about 5 or 6 of them) usually run about a month on a charge.

I think you can use a spare battery to charge the case instead of charging it directly from the wall socket.I have not tried it and I dont believe I will need an extra spare battery.cheers

HelloI have not had that problem with this product, but i have not left the battery off for more than 3 days so far. Battery was still fully charged. This case works great. I have enjoyed having it

I have left my phone on it for hours while the phone was powered on but I have noticed when the phone is off and when it is done charging, the battery pack shuts down automatically so if your phone is off, my guess would be that it shouldn't. Not sure how it would be if the phone is on. Maybe it works the same as it detects the battery is fully charged it may shut off either way as to not overpower the phone.

Hi Jody,I have not had to use the charger at a completely dead start. Sorry I was not able to answer your question .

The case is pretty thick and holds inside of it a battery. You put the case on the phone. When your phone is almost dead, you press a button on the case, and your phone starts charging. When both your phones battery and the cases battery are dead, you can keep the case on the phone and simply plug the case in, which will charge both devices.This case is amazing

Bought this for my daughter when she went on her mission trip. When case is on phone and the phone is almost dead you press a button on the case and it starts charging your phone. When you are able to get to your home charger, just plug the case in while on phone and you will charge both the case and phone. The charging case doesn't have to be on except for when you need it. Just leave the case on the phone and then you have added protection for your phone when case isn't in use. Well worth the money.

Yes, I leave mine off until I get down to about 20-30% power on until recharged to 100%. I'll turn it back off and I can do that 2-3 times per case charge, unless I forget to turn it back off when recharging the phone. Be aware that it does get warm to the touch when charging the phone, not too hot but you know it's on. Also make sure your lighting plug port is clean as if it traps dirt or anything it can scratch the connections and cause issues with the phone. Otherwise highly recommended.

I have the same situation. The device powers off on its own, but, yes, the lighter port will still send out power. Your battery won't die from it but it may reduce the life of your battery, perhaps. I don't charge the Brightplay unless it's dead. Otherwise, I use the charger for my phone.

I will add, when you are not charging your phone or when your phone is fully charged, make sure you remove cord from the charging device altogether... The device doesn't have a shut off capability. If there is a cord plugged into device, it starts using its power if it the cord isn't hooked into anything else. If your device is hooked to your phone it doesn't stop charging at 100%. The only way to shut off device is to detach everything from it

I charge my iPhone 5 in this case all the time. It has never had any issues. I'm not sure if there is a battery issue between the 5 and the 5S, but I haven't had trouble. I haven't had a reason to take my phone out of the case in the 2 months I've owned it.

I would typically plug it in when the battery died. I would just plug the charger directly to the phone or to my rapid-charge car charger - while still in the phone. One thing I should point out though. About one month after the warranty expired, the battery bloated up. I had to replace it with a zero lemon battery. I've had the new battery about 3 months and so far it is working flawless.

I think it has to do with the mAh output. It does the same to me. If I plug it in at night it will be at 100% by the morning. But if its going dead and I'm on it, instead of charging when I plug it up like it would with the original samsung cord, it will die! So like I said it has a lot to do it the output of the charge. Hope I could help.

I can't answer this, in my case once I use the charged battery, my charger/battery will not take a new charge, is this a normal problem and should I look for a charger?

I will try to answer y our question- I leave it on the charger several hours and then it lasts for daysafter I use it again.I usually just put it on the charger at night and when I wake in the morning and use it. It just seemseasier to to it at night.

it charges the phone about 20% then the charger dies, but if u use the charger first when the phones battery is full it can last up to 6 hours or so before the case dies.
