For the past week, I have been having charging problems with my original iPad 1. I know that sometimes it says "not charging" but it really is. But my iPad is definitely not charging. I got new cables thinking it was that but it wasn't. I've charged it the same way for the past two years with nary a problem. I'm starting to think the internal battery is shot or it has a hardware problem. It has gotten a lot of use. Sometimes it will start to charge again if I reboot it but, after a few minutes, it stops.

Any ideas on what could be wrong?

I've edited my post to add that I think I've figured out what the problem is. The power strip is faulty. I should have thought of that possibility from the get-go.
