Clocks between at least two wireless devices are synchronized to reduce the need to transmit synchronization signals over a wireless communication channel therebetween. Two wireless devices synchronize their respective clocks with each other when each are electrically coupled, e.g., during a cradle time when brought into physical contact with each other through charge contacts, e.g., to recharge a remote portable unit. The charge signal appearing at the charge contacts is driven to create a time duration marked by a start transition and an end transition in the charge signal. The number of clock pulses of each of the two wireless devices during the time duration is counted, and compared to determine the difference in clock speeds of the wireless devices. The frequency of the clock of at least one of the wireless devices is adjusted to bring the difference in the clock speeds within a predetermined threshold tolerance level.
