Do you know WHY they went with this kind of charger?
You want to be be so open with the use of book readers on the Vox then you make the darn charger proprietary..... why not go with a simple common charger. Oh and one that is easy to plug in. This little plug is hard to line up on mine and feels like it won't last a year

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.
