Based on y'all's recommendation, Amazon is shipping it as we speak. It
better not be stupid.


How will you know the difference?


If he turns it on and it hums, it's likely a transformer based charger. If
it emits a higher pitched whine, it's probably smart.

If it's very light weight is probably smart. If it's got some heft to it,
it's probably stupid.

While charging, if it outputs a constant voltage with a slowly declining
current reading until it shuts off, it's stupid. It might be an improved
"microprocessor" controlled conventional charger that isn't smart, but isn't
stupid. Sorta a 95-105 I.Q. type.

It's not gonna hum.

And if it does, I'll probably not be able to hear it.

Therefore it's a good one.
