1. Choose Right Size USB Adapter
First of all, we charge the WB with the iClever 24 watt dual port USB charger adapter, as shown next. The speaker needs 5 volts at approximately 0.6 amps to charge fully in a reasonable amount of time. So this iClever USB wall adapter is indeed strong enough to recharge the unit with lots of energy to spare.

Second, use a penny or a dime to pry open the waterproof seal port cover on the WB. This reveals the micro USB charging port inside, as shown next.

The status lamp in the power button lights a fading and brightening white pattern when you supply enough USB power. While no battery status gauge shows percentage of charge, the pulsating white lamp means that charging is happening. Then when the speaker is OFF, it goes out when charging completes. If the WB is ON, this lamp starts glowing a solid white.

Battery charging is complete when the gradually brightening and fading power lamp stops pulsating.

9. Fully Close the USB Port Door

At last, for best battery performance, repeat this recharging every ten hours of play time. This keeps the battery in top working order for months to come.
