Hey Ken - this was super informative and I wanted to thank you for it. A charger is just some normal, every day piece of technology that people pay little to no attention to at all but as you've found out, they are not created equal and vary wildly in terms of performance.
I feel like people don't pay enough attention to the brand or quality of charger and just toss whatever they can on to it as long as the plug fits. The results from your testing show that it is actually a pretty big deal and could result in some damaged electronics or even worse, a fire.
Thanks again! I learned a lot today.
