[QUOTE="Mikeo1938, post: 1765631, member: 135375"] Having totally discharged the PB-100, I set about recharging it. First I tried the adaptor that came with my wife's iPad mini: this was painfully slow and must have taken over 12 hours. I have three AC adaptors: the aforesaid one from the iPad Mini; one from an iPhone 5 and another - a non-Apple device. The latter is the only one that has its spec printed on the side, namely Input 100-240v - 50/60 Hz 0.3A; the output is given as 5.0V - 2.1A. (BTW apologies for the error in my first post - that adaptor was not the official Apple iPhone one but rather the non-Apple device.) Does anyone know the spec for my two Apple chargers (for the iPad mini and for the iPhone 5)? How do they compare with the non-apple device? Are they identical? Presumably to speed up the charge to the PB-100 I should be looking for something that can deliver more 2.1A. But it's a trade-off - more about weight and bulk than price - on the basis that I'll need two chargers for a bike trip: one to charge the iPhone overnight at a hotel and the other to recharge the PB-100. To speed up the overnight recharging of the PB-100 should I be looking for an adaptor that will deliver around 3A? Does this sound feasible given my requirements? Thanks in advance for suggestions.
