So, from what people are saying, to get the battery level to show correctly I have to power off. Connect proper charger and then power on again? Yes? So, if I do that I can expect the charge level to suddenly shoot back up? If the ipad charger really was charging the device up then, when I then connect the proper charger, I should expect the charge level to suddenly go up? Yes? From my experiment before I'm not sure if I'm seeing this but I'll do the experiment; connect the vox charger and see if it suddenly shoots up.

Last night, as a test, I charged overnight with the
Vox cable & iPad charger and what I saw was that although it charges for a time (as verified with the battery level reset), if I leave it plugged in overnight, it loses charge. I charged it from half to full power (verified that with reset button) before going to bed, left it plugged in and by morning it had only 50% left again. Not sure at what point that starts to happen but could it be that once it is fully charged, if left connected, the Vox starts to discharge?
Note that I am usually using my
Blackberry cable which is a much heavier cable than the Vox's and much longer at 45 inches. The BB cable is A/B style 2725, 30 v,28 awg/2c and charges really well with no issues at all. I generally leave it plugged in overnight and the Vox is still fully charged in the morning. The Vox cable is shorter, flimsier, nothing written on it...
