Hello again
I'm not sure why this did not occur sooner unless the battery case I just
bought was not charged at all or enough to charge my phone. This I don't
really understand because when I asked someone sighted they often told me
the back of the case was lit up and I kept it plugged in for up to 2 ours
which the literature said to do.
Suddenly yesterday I heard the sound of plugging in the
charger when I must have successfully turned my battery case on without any
sighted feedback. The phone was not plugged into an outlet, it simply sat
in the battery case. So the way it works, and maybe they all do, when the
battery case has charge it charges the phone when the case's power is turned
on.
I didn't know this is the way they worked. How I thought they worked was to
take the charge from the battery case first when both the case and phone
were charged. Or, maybe they draw off energy from the phone as usual without
a case, but if you turn the case on, it will charge the phone with whatever
juice the case has, and give the phone what it needs until you don't need it
to charge up anymore.
Now then, I guess if the battery case has nothing more to give, you would
know if your phone goes low and if the battery case is on, it won't say it's
charging up in the status bar anymore. All of this latter process would be
done without a charging cord plugged in.
Is this all obvious to the rest of you who use battery cases? Does this
sound right? I definitely do have a charging case or port of one sort or
another, so at least my $30 got me something.
