Charging speed depends on Amps. Some USB sockets are only 1 Amp so it will be a slow trickle charge.

If you get a higher Amp USB charger (for example http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00IEFXDO8/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_awdl_x_5hUVxbFJ2SRSP) that will plug into the car cigarette lighter socket then you should get a charge similar to your socket at home.
