But this would show up in the power factor rating, but could be compensated via power factor correction circuits (most high -power/end computer PS units use this).

When I was first looking at PSUs thats that I thought, but the cutsheet on the IOTA says that its Continuous Maximum Power Output is 1100 watts and its Maximum AC Current @ 108VAC is 20 amps. You are 100% right - a powerful all in one charger would be bad ass!
