I was sitting at work today, iPad plugged in and streaming a podcast when I heard a "beep" "beep" "beep" on the iPad. The charge was only to 79% so I thought it couldn't be that charger. I unplugged and the beeping stopped. Plugged it into the PC and it was fine. Plugged it into the charger and it started screaming again. I pulled the USB from the connector and it was HOT......VERY hot. Damn......never had this happen with an apple product......wierd
