The DR1000 is pretty picky about the voltage as well. The USB spec says it's supposed to be 5V, but there are some cheap wall chargers out there that don't follow it very closely. I know of at least one case where a DR1000 reseller that was offering a USB wall charger as an accessory that was only putting out 2V. Lots of DR users were reporting problems with it, so I don't think it was just a single bad piece of hardware.
I think with those third party chargers, you've got some good brands and some bad ones. The DR seems to be a little more picky than other USB devices, so bad brands cause more problems with it.
