When fully charged, which battery does it "pull from" first: the iPhone internal battery or the one in the case?

It pulls from the external battery first if the charging case is turned on!

If the blue light is not on then you are using your phone's battery, but if the blue charger light is on then you are being charged by the battery charger. When you click on the charger a blue light will come on, that is indicating that the phone is being charged by your battery charger. The blue circles are your indicator how low the charger is getting by the blinking blue light.

When you click the battery's power button it starts to charge your phone but if you click it twice, it starts to charge your charger. Hopefully, this has helped you.

With the charging case, you are able to turn the charge on or off. So if both the phone and case are charged, with the case "off", your iPhone battery will be used first.

When both are fully charged, the external battery will go to sleep and the phone will draw from the phone's battery. Turn on the battery anytime and it will continue to charge the phone until it gets to 100%.

It charges via mini USB, however, I wouldn't waste my time with this one if I were you. It worked to charge my iPhone the first time I used it, but after that point, I could fully charge the case, however, the iPhone would not recognize it when connected.

RfGuy - the iphone syncs and charges without removing the case. No need for different cables. Every once in a while I will take the case off to clean the phone and I will use the apple cable but there is nothing to update or sync. It's charged and synced without the iphone cable.

Yes - the battery is internal- you just need to charge it like you charge your phone

HI! when you are charging the phone with the case, you need to turn on the button in the case. The first thing to charge is the phone and then the case. sorry for my english

As soon as I plugged mine into the Jackery it is the battery case that provides the power instead of the iPhone. I can usually go all day long running on battery case only and my iPhone reads 100% charged all day long. Only when the case phone depleted does it run off of iPhone battery. This includes at minimum 2 - 4 hrs talk time and data 24/7. I am 95% satisfied due to I wish case was more heavy duty as my job requires a lot of mobility and I drop my phone from time to time.

I have not tried that, I just charge the iPhone thru the case. The top is made of plastic, so I didn't want to break it every time when I take the iPhone out.

The iPhone connects internally to the battery/case via the Lightning connector but the charger and connector for the case is a micro USB.

This external battery lasts me 1 day fully charged, then my IPhone battery begins to work.

I not sure exactly but it does take awhile. I usually just left it charging overnight and both the case and phone would be fully charged.

There is a MOPHIE insignia on the bottom of the case. In addition, you can tell from how long the battery is powered on your iPhone. The imitation ones will not provide more than a 50% charge.

Yes it it's normal. It takes about 6 hours to get fully charged. But just the battery case and if you have the iphone in the case it may take longer because it charges the iphone first the does the battery case. Mine took around 8 to 9 hours to fully charge both.

My understanding is that the phone first then the Mophie. You have to make sure the Mophie switch on the bottom of the device I believe on the back is switched to off when charging. When the switch is off you are using the phone battery. When you're battery gets low on the phone turn on the Mophie switch and it immediately fills your phone charge. When it is charged turn off the Mophie power again. I didn't read the instructions and thought it wasn't working. Love the device now.

In the inside of the case where your phone goes in there is a little slot that is cut out, thats where the battery goes

The internal battery is recharged through a charging stand/cord. The battery is non-removable.

I've done both and never had a problem. I usually charge with the switch on and the case closed till I need it again.

Yes its the case plus emergency battery. I believe its the conventional lithium battery, if thats what u r asking. U cant remove the battery inside because it's designed this way. It could've been a good accessory if it had not had those problems (my review). I hope i was helpful.
