Hmm, couldn't this be just the adapter's regulation getting started, charging internal capacitors, and all that ? The charger seems to have an output capacitance of something like 1000-1500uF. It may be interesting to observer what happens if the load is applied after the adapter has been plugged in for a while. I would expect it to recover a bit more rapidly. > It seems doubtful the 500mA USB limit that is meant to be active from > cold actually is. Could be. We also have a bunch of specification-violatingly large capacitors right on VBUS, which certainly don't make things easier. - Werner
