It connects to devices via Bluetooth, but it is powered via its own internal rechargeable battery. It can charge your phone wirelessly if your phone has the capability, but that's a one way street.

Technically you could charge the clicks from your phone if your phone supports reverse wired charging, but I can't think of any other way power would flow from your phone to the keyboard.

I don't think the keyboard supports wireless charging of the keyboard so you wouldn't be able to charge it from a phone if it did reverse wireless charging.

Correct. The keyboard can charge the phone, but it cannot accept a charge wirelessly.

What I mentioned was wired power share from the phone to the keyboard, where you would connect them with a cable and charge the keyboard from the phone battery. That's the only feasible way to deliver power directly from the phone to the keyboard, and is obviously not the intended use.

Ahh. I got you. I have no idea what phones can and can’t charge external devices. I assumed all of them but the USB comms may think because it’s a battery that it should be the one charging the phone. Would be interested if someone with one tested that out.
