Although we don't recommend using a 3rd party charger, the Vox will charge using a 3rd party charger provided:
‣ the charger used is a wall-charger and not a standard USB cable
‣ the charger supplies 2 amps

Note the charging light will not show the reader is charging when using a 3rd party charger but know it's still receiving a charge.
I think the idea of "drop in" prongs for the wall charger is great. The problem is finding alternative prongs. I've got a US/Canada charger but I'm going to Australia. Where can I get an Australian plate? I know I can get an adapter but that seems to defeat the purpose and design of this nice charger.

Thanks
