Four Apple Charing Blocks have gone dead, each within two weeks of use. iPads used include 2018 iPad Pro, 2022 iPad Air, and 2025 iPad Pro. The charging blocks do not get hot, and there is no scorching or burn smell at the outlet or the charging block. Apple cords and non-Apple cords have been used. A surge suppressor outlet and 1000J surge protector have been tried.
