No seriously, I always get blank stares when I ask people, I've called them wall chargers or power bricks, my friend called them plug chargers, my fiancee calls them dongles. What do you call these around your house, like when you're asking someone if they've seen any (______)'s
USB charger
"wall block"
Isn't it a mobile charger?
Adapters for upgrading your home’s firmware.
Wall block USB wall block
Most of the time, we just call it block , I’ve never heard of wall wart. Today I learned…
Wall block
Charger.
Charging brick, or power adapter.
I can't think of a better term for these.
Squares
The wonders of spanish
Plugs?
It appears the manufacturers call them power adapters
cube or charging cube
Charger block
Brick.
USB-Power-Supply
Now that you make me think about it I think I've been calling them different names depending on what I intended to use them for, most of the time (I'm translating) I call them phone charger but I also called the power supply or usb power supply when I wanted to power something else.
Never thought about it.
Everything you said was except for dongle. I absolutely would not accept that in my household.
