A computer "cord extension" is not an extension cord. It's a power cord. The description states very clearly that the device is designed to use a standard extension cord to recharge. Pick one up at a 99 cent store and be happy. Or charge from the car battery DC plug, if that's too much trouble.

I like that I can charge it with any extension cord, I find it convienient.

Read the manul. It says the unit does not come with a power cord and to use a standard extension cord to charge it. Plug the extension cord into the AC outlet in the back of the unit.

No it absolutely does NOT come with a power cord. I've gone through a mess trying to return this because I cannot use it without a way to plug it in to the wall. Not sure why people are saying yes to this... it has no charging cord.

It comes with a cord that you can charge it with but be careful! It broke the inside connector on my camera so now I can only charge my battery with the charger I bought for it, and the only way I can transfer photos now is using the sd card slot on my computer. Very upset about that :(

I suspect they thought you would plug it into your computer to charge. I use the usb plug that I got with my phone. You can buy usb chargers almost anywhere.

When I received it, the instructions said it needs an adapter which is not included. When I emailed the company they said the adapter isn't needed. But when I plugged it into the power outlet, it didn't work.So I ended up having to return this thing, and waste a month going back and forth describing the issue to the seller until I got my money back.So save yourself the hassle and don't buy it.Learn from my mistake

This may seem a very stupid question, but does this plug in to your outlet in the house to charge...I cant see a plug in the pictures??? Thank you, I just hate to order and be disappointed over my own stupidity!!

This isn't right. There should be a power cord and the charger. Contact the seller via amazon so you have a record of your request and explain that the power cord was not included. Wait for their response. They should ship you a new one, or a power cord. If that works, good. If not, contact amazon by phone. They will resolve the problem if the seller doesn't. They have excellent customer service.

It came with a short, aprox 5-6 inche cord to charge it but it works for me. I keep it in my kitchen so I remember to charge it periodically. FYI...I take it out with me on days I know I'll be gone (so far up to 10hrs, using it for probably 5hrs and the battery charge has never failed me). This is one of my best accessories I have for my iPhone. :)

Thank you for your message and interest in our products! This charging port does not come with a charging cable. It takes a simple micro USB cord. If there is anything else that I can help you with, please let me know. Have a great day!

it should have came with a short charging cord . you can get a regular usb cord that is for cameras and stuff like that and it will fit . walmart and places that sell computer accessories should have them .

Yes nick. It clearly states on the product page all you need is an outlet to plug it in. Seriously people, stop being so disgusting and rude about this product!

Yes, you already have to have to already own a charge pack in order for it to work unless you wish to keep it plugged in the entire time. This product is just the cable and I warn you not to buy it. Stick with the Microsoft version or another proven 3rd party company. This thing is garbage.

I did say that in my initial review. However, just to double check I ran down my battery again.I can 100% say that you CANNOT use it without the battery charged while being plugged in with the cord.I am very sad about this lack of functionality.

I'm not sure what you are referring to, but it did come with the charging cord of course, it had basic programs on it such as microsoft word. It is still working very well, I use it to check emails, create documents, import pictures, backing up iphone.

It should have come with a charger that would plug into your computer. Mine came with one but the charger was too big to fit in the hole. I sent it back to Amazon.
