I have the same setup Linn- my Stratux sits in the baggage area using a 12v 

cigarette adaptor with a 2.4A USB, runs from start (when it automatically 

powers up to shutdown) Never had an issue with that. BTW- Avare gets you 2-3 

times more traffic than FPGo but weather is better on FPGo. With Avare it 

uses loads of battery (Samsung Tab 2 has a bad battery to start with) and I 

also have the IO app that drives the battery even more, even with all that 

load on the Samsung the battery charges faster than it drains.

Les- I have two daughters with two ipad mini running on a 12V USB connection 

at the SAME TIME. They both see charging while they use it. I fear you are 

using a plug that is either not getting enough power and/or an adaptor that 

is overloaded. I think the bluetooth sucks battery on the phone, I usually 

disble bluetooth and use the Wifi as a hotspot without battery issues.

This is the one I use and it has worked flawlessly,

. For the price it cant be beat it is 2X 2.4Amps.

Best of success!

These are what I've been using:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E1UWA4O?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=od_aui_detailpages00



The SCOSCHE USBC242M.



It's also 4.8A total, and does a very fast charge.  Costs a little more 

than the Anker below,

but is shorter which stays in the socket very well and doesn't stick out 

more than

maybe 1/4".  I probably own 8 or 10 of them and haven't had one go bad.

Noise free so far in the plane.  Just bought 2 more tonight for the RV-14.



The best I've found for AC use that we bring along traveling for the family

(and use at home) is this:   (I've bought 3 of them)

http://www.amazon.com/Anker-Charger-PowerPort-Multi-Port-Samsung/dp/B00VH8ZW02/ref=sr_1_1?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1456812858&sr=1-1&keywords=anker+5-port



The Anker 40W/8A 5-port charger.    You can't go wrong with that one.

It charges as fast as the device can take.



Both of the above have replaced all the other various USB chargers

that I've bought or received with phones and devices.  Having the

extra port(s) makes them much nicer than the standard ones.
