I think what is going on is the solar panel isn't powerful enough to charge a device and is only adequate to charge the internal battery given enough time. As far as the user goes there isn't much to see. <br /><br />In terms of plugging it in, if you run power from a USB while something else it trying to pull power from the battery, it gets too hot. As far as I can tell it always routes power to a device from the battery. <br /><br />Since writing the post I have kind of given up on this charger. It was OK when it was new but had some obvious problems and there are many many more on the market now that work a lot better for not much more investment.

You must charge the internal battery and then charge your device."<br /><br />Will the panel do this change automatically? From internal battery charge state to phone battery charge state without any user action?Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11490183259855820385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5397166274888769721.post-63661266992477089202013-06-24T23:26:59.835-07:002013-06-24T23:26:59.835-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11490183259855820385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5397166274888769721.post-63557953367949882372013-06-15T09:11:20.856-07:002013-06-15T09:11:20.856-07:00I charged mine when I first got it and when it was...I charged mine when I first got it and when it was fully charged the blue lights went off.

It pretty much sits in the window of my boat and acts as an emergency backup. SO, I'm not sure what your lights going out right away might mean. Mine always had one blue light on when it was plugged in. They're cheap enough that it's not a big deal but they are far from reliable.
