What is the charging time of the lithium keyboard and what indicates that it's charging?

Not sure about the charging time I keep it plugged on all night and there is a light on it that lights up when you plug it in to charge it

I found the charging time to be about a 1.5 to 2 hours. There is a red/orange light that illuminates when you first plug it in. It will go out when it is fully charged.

I believe the keyboard light should only be blue. Both charging and when on. I would box that one up and send it right back for a replacement.

There is a USB cable accompanying the case. Provide an initial charge to the keyboard by plugging into the keyboard and the USB into any Powered USB port. The packaging for the charging cable is provided with the item.

Regina, that's a good question. The info sheet that came with the device claimed I think 150 hrs. of continuous use, which seemed like a misprint to me. When I plug the charger in the blue light comes on but goes out within about 5 minutes, which may mean it's charged. I think I'll wait until it runs out to learn the answer as I can always go back to the onscreen keyboard while it charges. You might ask someone who's owned it longer. Charles

I have charged my keyboard maybe once since I got it in January- Its very infrequent and we use it OFTEN. Good luck with your decision.

I've had mine for just a month, and the red charging light turns off after about 2 minutes. But that doesn't seem to matter much because the keyboard has never stopped working. So maybe the red light isn't supposed to stay all the time while it's charging???

Try using an identical charger to see if it will charge then. If it still doesn't take a charge u can assume it's the keyboard and not the cord. Maybe a 1 year manufacturer warranty...

Be sure to turn on the switch on the top left corner near the esc key. You also need to charge the keyboard by connecting the standard USB port on the tablet part to the mini usb on the keyboard. If it doesn't work after charging ~ call support. When the keyboard power button is on, you will see a white light next to the switch. It may be orange if the power is low.

Yes, a USB charging cable is included. You charge the keyboard for 3-4 hours before your first use. Depending on the use, the charge may last up to 60 hours before recharging.

It has a battery that needs to be charged. hen it is fully charged the light will be white on both the keyboard and tablet. I received few instructions with mine.

If it is the first time charging or the battery power is low or dead it will blink green for what seems like an eternity. Patience is required. You may or may not be able to type while it is charging. It depends on the power in the battery. Also, check to make sure the battery is intact. Mine was loose after the keyboard fell several times. I fixed it. If the battery is dead when you unplug after 12hrs or more you need a new gadget. Otherwise, the charging unit will power off when unplugged. Hope that helps

Mine has had a functional keyboard for months after the first charge. Yours must be defective, because mine works great.

Plug the included cable into your desktop or laptop and have the bluetooth keyboard turned off. It should flash red that it is charging. It will take a while for the 1st charge to take. Just give it sometime.

The "LED indicator" is just a little light under a tiny panel under the on/off switch. On mine, a blue light comes on when it needs a charge. When I plug it in, a little red light comes on. When it's done, it goes out. Here's the thing, though; the keyboard sleeps when not in use for a couple of minutes extending the battery life for so long that I have only charged mine twiceand one of those two times was when I first received it. The battery life is incredible.

It needs some time to fully charge. Make sure the USB cable you are using works and let it charge for several hours. Try to charge it via USB from a computer with the computer turned on and then test the keyboard. If it is not working try charging it with the computer turned off. If it is still not working contact the service.

It was charged when it arrived. In fact, I have never put any effort into charging it. I just leave it with the solar panel facing up whenever I close it, and it has always been ready to use. It uses either the natural light or the light from a lamp to charge. I am very happy with this keyboard!

No, I have used the keyboard extensively and have yet to charge it after the initial charge.
