The sales blurb on the Mushtato site claims around 9 hours recharge time at 5V/2A.(Use a wall charger such as a 2Amp iPad or 2A Samsung phone charger)
Probably at least double that at ordinary USB current 5V/0.5-1A.

So it should start charging automatically when a smart device is plugged in.
The blurb says "Reset Protect (button). Press the power button to active reset function."
Don't ask me what that means.
