Tablet users often have questions related to charging. The fact is that many of these devices cannot be charged from the USB ports of computers and laptops. However, there are still several ways to deal with this problem.
In fact, when a tablet such as an iPad is connected to the USB port, charging will continue despite the device reporting otherwise. However, it is so slow that it can take about a day to fully charge the tablet. The fact is that a regular USB port gives out amperage of only about 0.5A, and some tablets require up to 1.2A.
So how do you charge your tablet? First, you can try to connect the switched off tablet to the computer, then charging will go faster. However, this method is unlikely to be able to satisfy you, since it also falls short of charging from an outlet.
Secondly, you can use a special USB hub that has 2 USB ports at one end. Both of these ports need to be connected to the computer, the other end of the splitter is connected to the tablet via a standard cable.
In addition, you can use the help of special programs that can redistribute the amperage in the computer ports, for example Ai Charger or Gigabyte On / Off Charge. The latter of them automatically detects the type of connected device, the required current and regulates the output voltage.
It should be noted that the tablet must be connected to a switched on computer or laptop, otherwise charging will not start.
Here are just a few ways to charge your tablet using a USB port. If, despite this, there are problems with charging the tablet, then most likely there is some kind of malfunction. Most often, the problem is related to the charger, cable, tablet battery, or computer USB ports.
