Yep the new Kindle Fires come with a 5W and you have to pay for a rapid charger instead. The old Kindle Fire came with a 8W. I went ahead and bought the rapid charger when I had a 50% off promo and use it to charge all my Kindles.
They use to say on the Original Fire not to charge with anything else but then when the 2012 came out they said it didn't matter. My mother in law uses her gps charger to charge her 2012 KFHD so I don't think it matters much.
