It's sort of like trying to charge a Tesla electric sports car from a 115 volt 15 amp wall outlet. Or cooking a meal for half a day and it's eaten in 15 minutes.

It's called a crock pot or slow cooker.

But I see no reason why the Vox couldn't charge over night from a laptop port.
In particular because we all know that folks are going to be traveling and forget their Kobo charger at home or in the hotel room. A cheapo USB micro cable and a laptop or external AC to USB charger could offer so much more flexibility rather than the person being very disgruntled.
