Car charger + K750i |

The home charger for my K750i is no longer functioning for some reason. My friend let me borrow her car charger, but I think there seems to be a problem. After nearly 5 hours of being charged (I went on a road trip), the battery meter appeared to be at 15% AFTER I disconnected it from the charger. WHILE it was charging, it seemed the percentage continued to decrease. It started somewhere around 10%, then towards the end of my trip, it showed 3%.
Please note that prior to even touching the car charger, I was over 50% on battery life. Once I started it on the car charger, it drained my battery or something.
Has anyone experienced this same difficulty?
P.S. I just ordered a new home + car charger, so hopefully that'll be shipped soon. And hopefully, it'll actually work. |

Well, the car's battery ain't pumping in any current, try using a multimeter,if you got one or get the cigarate lighter charger of the car checked.
Unlike the wall adpater charger the car charger can suck battery out of the phone and feed it *back* to the car battery or any short point....
Hope that helps...

If the Home charger won't charge your phone and the Car charger won't charge your phone, maybe the problems with the Battery in your phone.
Q: Do you use MyPhoneExplorer? It has a fantastic Phone Monitor system with which you can check:
- the Battery Level to the nearest 1%
- the current draw
- the charging voltage and current
Also:
Check and see if your Home charger works with your friends phone.
Check that the cigarette lighter in your car works - check the fuse in the car fuse box.

Thanks, you all.
I ordered a new home, as well as car, charger and now have no problems. It must have been those two pieces of equipment that I had that posed the problems. |

@n - Was your friend's CAR charger an original  one  So with the one you were using at home If not, then try using the genuine ones mate . . . if symptoms persist, consult a certified technician. Good Luck!
