Charging Rylo's Battery

  1. Insert the charge cable's Micro-USB end into Rylo
  2. Insert the other end of the charge cable into your power source
  3. Rylo will power on and its LEDs will pulse green to let you know that it's charging

We advise using the included charge cable in the following scenarios when charging Rylo:

  • with a computer or laptop that's awake and plugged into to a power source
  • with a USB wall charger (500mA or 2.5W or greater)
  • with a power bank charger (500mA or 2.5W or greater)

Note: Be sure plug Rylo into a power source that outputs at least 500mA at 5V.

We regulate the amount of power that transfers from the power source to Rylo so that the battery will not be damaged during charging. A full charge of Rylo's battery can be expected to take between 2:45 hours and 4 hours, depending upon the power source used.
