Claim Text:
1. A temperature monitoring vehicle charger cord assembly, comprising: a wall plug; a pair of power prongs carried by the wall plug; at least one thermal sensor carried by the wall plug, the at least one thermal sensor configured to monitor a charging temperature, the charging temperature associated with at least a portion of the wall plug; a battery electric vehicle electrical plug; and a microprocessor electrically interfacing with the power prongs, the at least one thermal sensor and the battery electric vehicle electrical plug, the microprocessor configured to execute programmed instructions stored in non-transitory memory, said microprocessor configured to cause the performance of at least one of terminating electrical current and reducing amperes of electrical current flowing from the pair of power prongs to the battery electric vehicle electrical plug if the charging temperature is determined by the microprocessor to at least meet a predetermined maximum threshold charging temperature.
