Don't trust the LED. I've had it turn off for no apparent reason when connected to a perfectly fine charger.

(In my experience, the USB/power stack is fairly finicky to downright crappy on these devices, it only recently got better on the newer devices, those running on completely new hardware [iMX6/Wario, i.e., PW2/KT2/KV]. And that's not a Kindle-only thing, the iMX5 Kobos are possibly even finickier, as are the Booken, etc. You get the idea).
