Is it normal for my SMOK Alien 220w mod to only charge normally from some wall charging bricks

I.e. It charges fine with the micro usb cable it came with and the apple iphone wall charging brick ( the real on that comes in an iphone box not a knock off gas station one) but doesn't charge with almost any other chraging brick… Charges through ps4, charges through laptop but for some reason most wall charges don't work

Not really.

The chargers built into vapes usually suck bad, I have issues charging mine with anything but an external charger.

The problem with mine is, it will display my battery is 50%, but I plug it in and it says it's 95%. So it's impossible to fully charge it. If I turn off the vape and remove the batteries for 10 seconds, usually I can charge it nearly full. But it eventually messes up again.

I recommend getting 2 spare batteries and a nitecore external charger. My 2 batteries last almost 2 days at 80w, it only takes 10 seconds to swap them. I find it much better than trying to use the stupid built in charger.
