The Asda one sort-of gets a charge going but the charger gets much too hot for me to risk leaving it running unattended. The Nexus charger works better, but still slowly. Even charging it from a USB 3 socket on my PC worked, very slowly. As long as you have the cable you can keep the device working.

Sure, the CHARGER works. The PLUG...that is proprietary. And without a plug the charger isn't going to be worth much.
