    Failure Rate of TK-5210 AC Chargers Alarming!

    Has anyone had any problems with the AC Desktop chargers for the TK-5210? We are experiencing a near 50% failure rate of the power supplies, leaving the viability of our fire department portables questionable. I have heard of one other department with a similar problem. How about you?
