I noticed that one of the pictures has a laptop and a wire in it. Is this lamp able to charge rechargeable batteries via usb or something?

No - it is battery operated. Nothing rechargeable that comes with it. But these are great lamps!

Nothing on it to recharge. Just battery compartment. It has lasted a long time for me with its first set of batteries, though. I am very happy with this light!

I believe just uses the regular batteries or perhaps could use rechargeable batteries but does not charge the batteries, nor a usb. a simple lamp that works for our purposes very well. great for camping too.

No - it is not rechargeable - just uses standard batteries. I have found that the batteries last a good long time and I absolutely LOVE these lamps!

No, don't think so - don't recall seeing anything about that either on the lamp or in the manual

We like the lamp, but it just uses regular or rechargeable batteries. No USB.

Yes, the built-in USB, when plugged into a PC or laptop recharges the rechargeable battery. The power to the PC or laptop, of course, has to be on.

No Jo M., it is powered electrically. The electrical cord is generously long so you can plug it into an outlet without having to use an extended one. It's a really nice retro lamp I know you'll enjoy. Thanks for contacting me. ;-)

It is rechargeable. It recharges through the USB cable, connect to your computer, or a USB wall connector.

Like I said, I have not charged mine by USB. Just plug it in and see, it won't hurt it. It will probably take longer to fully charge by USB than by direct sunlight, so just leave it charging overnight and check it the next morning. I found that they only way to make the light go out is by covering the solar screen, or putting the lantern in the dark. It seems to glow otherwise because any light seems to charge it in some manner.

Yes. Battery needs to be in the lamp/flash light housing before you plugin the charging cable. Charging socket is a part of housing so battery muct be inserted into the battery holding slot in the housing.

It has a USB plug. It comes with a cord and multiple USB attachments. You can charge the light with your computer or charge a cell phone from the lamp. You will likely need an adapter for 220. It is set up for US power, but you can always use your computer. Hope that helps.

I was so disappointed with the manufacturer, and I really do not recommend the product or any part of it. The lamp itself was pretty good, but failed after the third use. I've tried to contact both Amazon or the manufacturer and never, ever, got an answer. So, to simply answer your question, I'd search for a generic charger, see voltage/amp input/output electric specifications in the orginal. Don't expect any response from them...

Yes, Just plug it into an outlet, and then your lamp etc into it. very Easy!

There should be a rechargeable battery in the clip area. I have not used my light since June and still have power in it. I have charged the lamp 1X since my original purchase in springtime, using it several times weekly in March, April, May, June. I'd say you have a defective product!

Yes. It is battery-powered AND comes with an AC adapter. Very nice lamp actually.

As I mentioned in my review, the plug on this lamp is only designed to be used with a computer as a USB so it is really very limited in its placement. I had to return it for this reason unless you have a computer in your bathroom and most people don't. Hope this helps.

ac adapter comes with lamp, but charger does not. The lamp does not give off very much light, if you are going to use it with the ac adapter there are better choices.

I don't think so this lantern is rechargeable but, only from a 120 volt ac outlet or a 12 volt dc port.

The lamp's power cord is a USB cable. It plugs into the power brick which has two USB ports. One for the lamp and the other to supply a charging port for a phone, etc.

Yeah. If the battery gets used up just plug it via usb to your computer, 115vac, car usb converter...Lights go all disco too. Pretty cool imho

Per the Manual enclosed with the glasses, "only connect the supplied USB cable to a USB terminal on the TV." "Recharging using other devices may lead to battery damage." It looks like the battery is not replaceable, so you don't want to risk damage.
