PW4 Charging....

I became accustomed to having two PW3 Kindles in part because it took so long to charge a device. So, I bought two PW4 Kindles. But, the PW4 seems to charge noticeably faster than the PW3 Kindles ever did.

Is it different technology and my imagination?

The PW4 does charge faster.

Measured with a USB meter, the PW3 charged at 5V/0.5A while the PW4 charged at 5V/1A, iirc.

Edit: Looks like you already asked about this before...

I might have. At 78 I sometimes forget what I've asked about. Thanks for the info and the measurement.
