Question
Will it charge a Nook Color
Hi, I have a Nook Color, and I am using the stock Nook Color charging cable (which aparently makes a difference according to the people on XDA-Developers). The instructions said to charge fully before first use, but it came out of the package with a full charge so I tried to charge it, but it said it was full so I used it. It died a little quicker then I thought it would. I got about a half of a charge on my Nook with it. I have plugged it back into the computer to charge now. Is it possible that I got a bad one since it showed all four LEDs right out of the package (the package didn't look like it was returned - it was still sealed)? Also, should it add charge to the Nook while I am using it? If I have the screen turned off on the Nook it charges it (kinda slowly), and when I have the screen on, the battery goes down, but much slower then normal.
Did I get a defective one?
Does this work with the Nook Color?
Should I use the Nook until its discharged, then plug this in a turn off the screen and let it charge all the way back up? Or should I plug it in right from the start and use the Nook with it plugged into this external battery?
How long should it take to charge the Nook from my Lenmar PPW66?
How long does it usually take to charge the PPW66 via a USB port on my desktop computer?
Thanks,
Josh

My recommendation is to fully charge the battery with a wall unit. Like the ones that come for the nook or iPhone, instead of charging it via USB with your own computer. The amount of power sent via computer is less and will take longer to fully charge your portable battery. Charge the battery fully, once all lights stop blinking unplug it from the wall and it should give you enough juice to charge your device several times. Also remember to plug the device to the battery via USP cable, then press the charge button. Don't just leave it as is, check on it after 20 30 mins, and once it is done unplug all the cables off your battery until the next time you need to use it.
