Q: 10w USB Power Adapter leak

Has anyone ever experienced a leaking 10w USB Power Adapter? I found a puddle of clear viscous liquid under my charger. Is there any liquid used in the construction of the charger? Puzzled.

Take a look at http://www.righto.com/2014/05/a-look-inside-ipad-chargers-pricey.html. There is nothing that should be liquid at room temperature.

No. Chargers have no liquid material inside them.

If you found a puddle of liquid, it most likely did not come from the charger.
