The fully charged enough to anchor my Nexus 5 smartphone to load about 4-5 times. A USB to micro-USB cable is included and works with popular Android smartphones. However, a power adapter to charge the anchor is not included. However, you can use this chargers of smartphones which have a USB port. In other words, you just have a charger (power supply) and a USB to micro USB cable while having to make things can charge.
It is not possible to charge the anchor on the power and also charge other devices with the anchor. The anchor invites either itself or other devices, but not both. But it is possible two devices (smartphones) to load at the same time with the anchor, if you have two USB to micro-USB cable here.
The armature responds to movement and then displays each of its charge state. This is a bit strange, since the armature while traveling is constantly shaken and then lit unnecessarily. But it was not really a problem and did not seem to require a lot of power.
