best way to charge battery

[Aiu]

Hello,people

What's the best way to charge battery of the mp3/4 player?Using the USB on the computer or using the AC adaptor?
My mp3 player takes one hour to fully charge and plays music continually about 5h.It´s normal?


Thanks for your attention

Aiu, Most of these players have lithium polymer batteries which preform better and last longer with lots of quick recharges. Draining the battery completely before recharging places more stress on the battery and will shorten it's life. You should avoid charging for longer than 3-4 hours at a time.
The adapter is best used only if you are unable to charge via USB.

charging via wall adapter is not the best way but sometimes the fastest..a wall charger is vulnerable to power fluctuation and other voltage abnormalities that may soon affect your player..i advice that as much as possible and if you are already using your computer..you might harness the time of charging your player..coz the power supply of your computer has many protection against abnormalities in the power..like hums and fluctuations...
