A:Answer It comes with a type-c 12 inch charging cord that plugs into one end of it, the lights will flash while charging one light through four lights whatever light is blinking is however much it is charged, when all four lights are on without flashing it's charged. Click the button three times for trickle charge or just plug the other end of the cord to the other side of the charger and you can charge the type c phone, if you do not have a type c phone then plug the Android cord into it and plug it into your phone. You can also, while charging it with your type c charger hook a charger to the other side of the battery for a better charging experience with your phone laptop earbuds or whatever, this is considered charging your charge box and your device at the same time.
