Hotspot drained battery

Wondering if any of you all are having this same issue? Has only happened once because I just started. I was connected on the psn network and I was texting all this while connected to a wall charger. While charging the battery does out. I turned it on and it was at 5 % so its charging now. Anyone got any ideas? I have the unlimited hotspot because im grandfathered 29.99. So far I tought the razor was the only phone that drains battery with heavy use while charging. Any input is appreciated. A big side note.. my brother says that he may have been using the HTC charger and NOT the LG charger. Could this have been it? hes in forth worth tx and im elsewhere so I was not there to see what it did.

These phones use a TON of juice to run the hotspot.  You have to remember, when running the hotspot, you are using the cellular data connection as well as the wifi.  Depending on how long you were using the hotspot, I could imagine that it would drain the battery, even while plugged in.
