I have an AT&T AC charger at work that I believe works as well as the stock Motorola. The AT&T AC charger here at home, listed above, is a “five star” model that consumes 0W when not charging, I assume that is what the blue light turning off indicates. Hopefully the combinations that keep the green light on the phone on are charging, just very slowly, and are still somewhat useful. More to come.
