I find that any USB lead plugged into any USB power supply works for me. I normally replace the short leads with 2-3M leads that I get from eBay.

1. Are you using Apple original wall charger, or is it a 3rd party one?
2. Are you using Apple original usb charger cables or 3rd party?
3. What iOS version is running on your 4S, compared to your wife's 4S?

There is no difference in the power charging requirement between a 4S 16gb and 32gb model.

Yes it shouldn't matter, but we are trying to understand Jonesy's setup in order to assist.

A PC usb port, or the dual USB ports you buy for the car typically provide 500mA. The genuine iPhone charger, specifically the 4S, provides 1A which is why the phones charge faster when connected to the wall outlet.

I've had issues with cables going bad, wall chargers going bad, and software glitches.

So Jonesy, check your iOS versions are the same or are up to date with the latest version. Make sure you have switched your phone off and back on. Check the wall charger for any dirt / rust in it if you can, and the same for your iPhone charger port.

At this point I'd say it's something to do with your iPhone's charger port, dust/lint or rust in there. If you have a small brush and a can of compressed air, give it a right royal cleaning out!
