Ignore the first half, as that isn't part of the problem.

Using the provided charger and USB cord, but have a USB extension cord so that I can charge it while sitting a few feet away from the outlet while still using it. Not sure if it is the battery or the wall charger.

Lose the extension cord !!

For best charging speed, use the original adapter and cable only unless you KNOW that the replacements function properly. Turn OFF the N7.

For next best charging speed, make sure that the WiFi and Bluetooth are set to turn off when sleep mode is engaged -- settings > WiFi > 3 dots at top right (menu) > Advanced > Keep WiFi on during sleep NOT checked etc same for BT
