Hey guys, a couple of you may know the chargers that verizon sell, the black cable and usb adapter that features a red ring of light when plugged in. I bought 2 over the span of 1.5 years, and the first one had a nasty screeching noise so i decided to replace it, and the newest one i have worked perfectly fine, no problems, until yesterday when it would occasionally stop charging. This morning when i woke up, barely able to see, i reached for the cable to unplug it and get my phone, only to realize it burned my finger, and the wire is completely ruined.
-Any specific reason the cable heated up enough to burn through it?
-Also, im actually concerned at this moment because i tried playing the ps3 i had a LONG time ago yesterday for the first time in a while, and it was working fine till it randomly shut off completely. No power on the ps3. I had to wait 10 min. To plug it back in and the red power light came on again, and it worked fine till it shut off again. Are my power outlets getting more power than it should receive or something? This is two major power concerns in one night
Added (1). Also i looked online for the ps3 problem, and i just read about people having a flashing red light on their ps3 which meant overheating. Mine literally just shut off completely as if it ran out of battery. Would this relate to the burning of my iphone cable?
