In one case: The charger, purchased from Radio Shack, was to blame. There is nothing wrong with the car's electrical system. This appears to be a common problem; Experienced this with several devices connected to the outlet. the fuse for the power outlets is located under the hood.

When charging a cell phone should you plug in wall outlet first?

It really does not make much of a difference. However, I would plug in the charger into the cell phone first, THEN into the AC power socket/outlet. The reason why is that it is usually harder to attach the charger plug into the phone. If you're pushing it in and it doesn't fit, you're making a partial connection. This may tax the power protection circuitry in the phone, because the charger is already plugged into the wall. So, best to plug it into the phone first, then into the wall.

You probably could plug it into an extension cord to give you more length from the phone to the power outlet. A more permanent fix would be to cut the cord and splice in a section of cord. However, if exceed the design capacity of the transformer (big block you plug in), then you may loose power and not give your phone what it needs.

How many rechargers can be plugged into a wall outlet?

One for each outlet. If it is a duplex outlet, that would mean two.If you're asking how much power can be used in a single outlet, that would depend upon the branch overcurrent protection, the distance to the panel and what other loads are already on other receptacles on that branch.It is certainly possible to plug a "power strip" into a receptacle and add as many rechargers as you want to, until the circuit breaker on the strip pops or the fuse or circuit breaker at the panel trips.It is generally a violation of fire code to plug another power strip or extension cord into a power strip.

Can you wire a switch downstream from an outlet?

Yes, you can wire a switch downstream from an outlet by connecting the switch to the hot wire (black) from the outlet. The hot wire would then be interrupted by the switch before continuing to the outlet, allowing you to control the power to the outlet with the switch. Always ensure to turn off the power before working on any electrical components.
