QuestionHi - What is the mAh rating of the JBL-CHARGE5 speaker when fully charged and How long does it take to charge from empty? and, Does the JBL-CHARGE5 speaker come with a charging adapter/brick that is plugged into an AC outlet? Thanks for the answers.
Asked 4 years ago by Munk.
- Answer If you look on the Charge 5 speaker directly above the charging port it is printed in very tiny font: "Battery Capacity: 3.6v, 7500 mAh". According to the JBL website it takes 4 hours to fully charge a Charge 5 speaker, but I have never run the battery down on either of mine, so I cannot confirm this. The JBL Charge 5 does not come with a "charging adapter/brick". It does include a USB-C cable that can be plugged into any computer or charging adapter (USB A female) that you already own.

QuestionCan we charge using an samsung travel adapter/charger having input 100-240V 50/60HZ 0.5A?
Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer You can charge your JBL Charge 5 using your android charger. As long as your android adapter is rated at 5V, .5A, or higher (amperage), it should charge your unit. JBL Charge 5 is rated to charge for 4 hours from flat using a 5V .5A source. Using an adapter with a higher amperage will charge your unit faster.

QuestionIs it okay for regular use in a bathroom? It claims to be waterproof, but would being in a room that regularly gets steamy be okay for it?
Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
This question was asked about the related product: JBL - CHARGE5 Portable Waterproof Speaker with Powerbank - Camouflage
- Answer Thank you for your inquiry. Our JBL Charge 5 is designed to be waterproof (IP67 rated), meaning it can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, while it can handle splashes and brief exposure to water, prolonged exposure to steam and high humidity in a bathroom environment might have some potential long-term effects. It's always best to minimize exposure to harsh environments like a steamy bathroom to ensure its longevity.
