Problem Charging K750i

    Hi Guys,

    I have a k750i which has an issue with charging:mad:
    It will charge fine on the normal mains, but if I try to charge it on the USB cable or on my car charger it won't charge.
    Is says "charging" and looks like it is doing the job but when I unplug it it is not charged properly.
    Sometimes there is a 1 to 2 % increase and sometimes the power decreases:confused:

    Anyone know what may be up??

    Cheers

    Mik

    The USB charging is designed for quick pick me ups. It should not be used as an alternative to the mains charger. The mains takes up to 2 hours to charge a K750i fully, whereas the USB can take up to 24 hours.

    Again, same goes for Car Chargers. Designed for pick me ups, not as a replacement. Installed car kits are obviously different.

    Cheers Chris,
    Problem is that they don't even work as a "pick me up"
    a lot of the time it's more like a "put me down" :p
    They do nearly no charge or a negative one.

    I know on my old nokia the car charger was well faster than the main charger

    Are you using it while it's charging? You may be using battery charge faster than it's replenishing.

    nope not using it @ all when charging
    it's just on standby!

    Anyone else find this?

    Not really to be honest. Granted, I don't use the car charger but I know the USB charger is borderline useless.
