This is merely a rehash of this thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98482
You even posted in the other thread near the top. No need to rehash or have multiple threads on the same subject especially when most AC adapters designed to accept a standard USB cable and produce 5volts will work. Not to mention that most cellular phone AC adapters designed for 5volts with a micro-USB connector will also work, excepting oddball companies like Apple.

Nor does the Rocketfish USB power adapter for the car: http://milo.com/rocketfish-usb-vehic...-adapter-black That, or there's something wrong with my 350, but it does charge just fine when plugged into the computer. |

Those of you who have a multimeter, can you please check if your charger has pins 2 and 3 of the USB socket shorted?

I've got a generic adapter:
Model: ADS-5A-06 05005GPG Input: 100-240V - 50/60Hz, Max 0.3A Output: 5V DC 1.0A I use the supplied USB cable (my adapter is simply an adapter, no cables attached) |

dude, just buy a blackberry charger and call it a day.
I dont see why your being so anal about this. 90% of all micro-usb chargers work, no matter the origin device. I myself have tested with a nokia, motorola, blackberry and a unversal charger that just had a usb port connected to the usb cable. All work with a 650 with no problem. Even the ipad charger works, you just cant read with it. Last edited by Cheeseandpickles; 09-24-2010 at 01:37 PM. |

The iphone/itouch/Ipad charger pushes slightly more power and has different wiring. Thats why the reader thinks its plugged into a PC. It still charges though, it is just unreadable because it goes to the usb connected screen. the exact same thing used to happen with the older model too.

- "USB connected" appears above a blank screen - The red charging light does NOT come on - About a minute later, the message "Charging Stopped. The Reader is unable to charge as no power supply is being detected" appears |
