# Charging

Plug the cable into the Insight (see photo below) ensuring the connector is fully inserted. Attach the cable to an active USB port on your PC or charger. There is a red and green LED located below the power button which will light orange when the charging and green when complete.

Note the device requires 5V supply and it draws a maximum of 0.5 A from the charge port. If it is plugged into a USB port on your PC, the Insight will check for the maximum available current from the port up to a limit of 0.5 A. Note that if the port does not support extended power mode, Insight will draw 0.1 A and it will charge much more slowly. Try a different USB port if Insight takes more than 2 hours to reach full charge.<br>

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://emotiv.gitbook.io/insight-manual/tips-and-tricks/charging.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
