Has your charger been picky with it's power supply in the past? I'm guessing you always plug it into a wall, right?
Agreed. Try something else that needs a plug. It might be that one adapter. Power ports have been pretty consistent on VX so far. If you are unlucky enough to get a port that's out, make sure the FA notes it for maint.
