Does the case itself charge the battery if not plugged into an outlet? As in, is the case a battery which transfers power to the battery inside it?

Unfortunately it doesn't. You have to use your USB cord and wall outlet to charge it

The unit has a battery for memory only so if you unplug it for a period of time all of your settings are saved once power is restored.As for the case, Yes it is possible to charge with my case on but keep in mind there are many different styles of cases.

I dont believe it damages the battery, Ive had no issues with mine. No need to drain the battery, atlhough it is recommended you recharge the battery when its @ 20%, bu just pushing the button that is located on the back part of the case. Hope that helps.

No you do not, but for a faster charge on the go, if your phone and this case are both dead or nearly dead, I recommend separating the phone and case and charging them separately then assembling them back together when you leave the house. This is most effective because when you plug the case in with the phone attached, the phone gets charged first followed by the case once the phone is at 100%. This requires double the charging time, unless separated.

Yes, there is no provision for charging the batteries while they are in the case. I would only recommend this case as an emergency backup. If you're looking for a bigger battery, the 3800mAh is a better buy.

Yes, it does! You're also supposed to have the option of using your battery case charge first or your iPhone charge first. I usually use the battery case charge first and by the time the evening comes I'm using the phone charge and then I recharge the whole thing every night. My husband just bought the iPhone 4S and I purchased this same battery case (he used another brand before) and he loves this one because it lasted him all day!

Hello Jeff, This case was purchased for our company president. As far as I know, he keeps the case charged & only uses it when the IPhone battery is low. He did relay to me that it works very well & the design is outstanding. Hope this helps. Have a great day.

Yeah it comes with a charger. You charge the case while it's on your phone. Or atleast that's what was suggested when I bought mine.

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.

No, it does not. I purchased another small case for the battery charger and cords in which I attached to the case.

I've had the case since probably the middle of May and have not had to charge the battery once yet. And mine did come with the charger, I just haven't had to use it yet.

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

You charge the case . Plug your phone in then when battery gets low you hit a button on case and it charges battery about 20 percent. Mine seemes to loose its charge faster in my opinion. Case worked great. If you just want it for that.

On one side of the case has a cable. You can plug it into any charging block that has a USB slot. I use the charging block for my iPhone.

You can use any micro USB cable to charge that case. It does work. Does it take longer? I don't really know because I never didn't evaluation, however I would guess yes probably a little longer but it still works

This laptop comes with the power supply. While plugged in into the AC outlet, the battery will be charged when attached to the laptop.

You can charge the phone with the case on it but it will not charge the case at the same time. You have to charge the case without the phone in order for the case to charge the phone when it's not plugged in.
