Charging

With proper care, the player’s Lithium-Ion battery should perform well for several years. When shipped, the battery is only partially charged. You can easily charge the player using one of the methods below:

External Power Supply

For fastest charge, connect any standard “USB” charger (regulated +5VDC, minimum 300mA) to the micro-USB port on the player for about 2 hours (or until the LED stops blinking). While charging, the LED will blink.

Computer

Plug the player into any standard computer USB port using a “USB to micro-USB” cable for about 4 hours or until the LED stops blinking. Any regular or charge-only cable is sufficient.

Solar Panel

For solar charging, place the player with the solar panel directly facing sunlight for 8 – 10 hours. Note, the LED light does not blink or show charging level when charging with the solar panel.

2Many factors influence typical battery playtime, charge retention and life. All times listed are best-case estimates based upon use under normal conditions.
