Main Supply Charger - Lenovo Yoga Book Questions & Answers

Can you get the Lenovo Yoga Book in the car with a USB adapter charging charger ?
You can also use a USB charger for the Lenovo Yoga Book except the original one ?

It works with pretty much any USB charger, but it will charge very slowly. I've got a quick charge 3 compliant charger and while it's a tiny bit faster than a regular 2 amp charger it's still slower than the original.

EEE Pad doesn't charge

Hello,
i've got a big problem...
I've bougt a used EEE Pad with Prime 1.7 and it doesn't charge.
I tried USB-PC, the original AC Adapter and one from artwizz.
The Pad has 13% power, wenn i put it off and plug it in it reboots like it's charging but it says: 13% remaining please plug in...
What should i do?
Thanks in advance!
Try leaving it charging for a while with screen off. If when you turn it on after several hours the battery has charged a little, then the charger is only delivering 5V and not the 15v needed for fast charging. The 15V is triggered by an gnd connection on pin 7 of the USB connector from the TF. Are you using any kind of USB extension? Std USB 2.0 extensions will not work. If all else fails get a Dynex DX-UA universal camera charger ( most electronics big box stores) and set output for 11-12 V.
I had the same issue couple of weeks ago (I posted here as well) and even got an RMA from Asus to send it in; but I didn't have to. In my case the battery was empty and when I plug in the adapter it would work but would not charge - the battery had an exclamation point on it and would not change to the "lightning bolt" indicating that it is charging. Since it works from adapter, that most likely means that adapter is ok. I also have a dock and when I plugged the adapter into the dock, the dock was charging so I knew that adapter is good. However, TF was not charging regardless if it was docked or not so I thought my battery died. The day before I sent it in for RMA I had it completely off and plugged in for a day or so. After that when I turned it on the battery showed full charge and it has been charging fine since then with no issues. So as Rumbleweed suggested below, as long as your adapter is good, turn your TF off completely and leave it plugged in overnight or longer. See what happens.
Good luck.
Will the Transformer show charging with 12V and 1500 Ampere?
At the moment it charges with a 5V 1 Ampere wenn its off.
The original adapter seems to be defect, but it works two days ago...
I've orderd a cheap 5V 2A to charge it over night. I found on amazon an adapter with 12V and 1,5 Ampere. Will it charge with it wenn i use it?
The original adapter costs 39€ and with a RMA i've to send the whole tab.
edit: An adapter with 12V and 1,5 Ampere should be working?
Mine has stopped charging today while the TF in on. It's only charging when the TF is off.
It will be soon three months I have it and it's the first time it does that.
When I touch the adapter, it's hot as it used to be before today.
I've tried to power it off and on many times.
hi all
i change my charger today ... same stuff, seems recurent problem.

Bricked the power adapter +

Last night the power adapter died. The extension cord it was plugged into was very hot where the adaptor was plugged in. Maybe the cord killed the adaptor.
Asnd the micro USB port has gotten worse.
I have many micro USB chargers and cables designed for phones but none of them except a very light weight one are not working on the TPT.
I have it charging now 6 hours and not yet 70 %.
One of my chargers accepts a USB - micro cable but the TPT cable is also not working nor any other cables either.
Is this the death of the USB port I've been reading about?
Is the USB micro standard off the shelf or Lenovo special?
Waiting for IBM Israel to get back to me.
Thanks for any help you can give.

most of phone charger is 1A
Thinkpad charger is 2A, so it's normal that charging Thinkpad with phone charger is very slow !
Bad IBM service

Buy a new charger
If you can do without the TPT for a couple hours the 1a with the device turned off charges pretty well, I also dug up an old iphone 1st gen charger and its 1.5 amp, i had like 3 of them around the house was a happy little surprise as I have already lost my lenovo charger
I tested with a Sony Ericsson cord and Lenovo's power adapter, but the TPT wouldn't charge. Certainly, it doesn't charge either with Sony Ericsson power adapter and Lenovo's cord. It must be end2end Lenovo.
Would it charge faster if I configure USB to "only charging"?
if you are using a wall plug-in charger, the usb menu should not come up that only comes up for pc link. the cable does not matter on mine, im using an apple charger and a Motorola cable from my photon and it work albeit slow, the best thing to do is completely turn the tablet off, its not going to charge too well if you are using it while trying to charge and the adapter only pushes an amp out.
Sad, you can't peruse any thinkpad tablet forums without hearing about defective usb ports.

Galaxy s4 wall charger's cable cut.

So its been a while since my s4 i9500 wall charger's cable been cut. Although the phone does get charged up. It isnt charging up quickly as it used to before the wire was cut. Sometimes the phone doesnt even charge even thought the battery icon shows that it is charging.
Now, I have been thinking of replacing the charger. But do i have to buy the charger or should i just replace the cables? I have a lot of micro usb cables . Can i use them with the adapter to charge up my phone?
You can use quite literally any micro-usb 2.0 cable and any usb charger to charge it; however, to achieve the maxium charging speed (1900mah) you will need a high quality shielded micro-usb cable (like the stock Samsung cable) and a 2A (or higher) usb charger (like the stock Samsung charger or an iPad charger).

Aukey works ok for me

Please Help me - my cube-i7-book wont charge (Wall charger & Usb-c charger )

Hey guys
First, I hope I'm asking at the right forum. I searched at xda and it seems to be closest that fits. If there is a need to transfer it to different forum please do or let me know there to.
Than, I have a big problem and I do hope you can help me with- my Cube-i7-Book don't charge not by the Wall charger nor by the Usb-c charger.
I read a lot about the coube-I7-book and just before they started talking about the new one I bought it (+original keyboard). It arrived and I start using it about 3 moons ago.
1. Last moons I bought a Aukey fast USB desk charger (charge other devises ) and try to charge my cube-I7-book with the USB-c cable I got with my LG smartphone. It looks like the charger is connected but it doesn't charge (I try again and again).
2. Last night my cube-I7-book buttery was very low. I connected it to the wall charger as I always do and went to sleep. In the morning I took a look at the cubeI7-book. I was surprise to see it was still charging. I let it to continue charging. At the evening I checked again. It got 61% and stop charging. I re connect it to the charger and to a different wall socket - there was no reaction. I restart the cubeI7 book -nothing.
3. Could the problem is in the wall charger? If so what different charger l have to look for in order to check?
4. If it's not the charger, what can it be and what can I do to make it work? It is a new device and I really want it to work.
5. What about the USB-c charging? Why isn't it working? Can I do something about it?
Thank you for your help,
Did you manage to fix your problem. I have the same issue. Did you try to use a macbook usb-c charger, instead of a phone usb-c charger?
Only just seeing this, sounds odd. USB charging works well for me (although sometimes I need to unplug and replug the cable if charging doesn't start right away). You need to make sure that your USB c charger provides "power delivery " and in particular, I think, 12v charging, maybe 9v is also OK, but the standard 5v that some USB chargers provide is definitely not enough.
You may have a look at the forum on techtablets.com, there's a subforum for the i7 book with wire a few people active.
