It is the bass that consumes the power. Good chargers use SOC, inexpensive ones use voltage, that can easily be misleading.
Same recommendation, get your hands on a voltmeter. I was at a hamfest today, they were selling the ones they give away as a promotion at Harbour Freight for a dollar. If that's all you can do now, it is better than nothing, I think. That is if it has .1 volt resolution that is sufficient to tell you what is going on. Or ask around, maybe a friend has a voltmeter you can borrow.
The fading power light, I disregarded, assumed it was if you switch remote or power or both. You could experiment and find out.
