This is an awesome project and contains powerful way to compose adapters.

The issue is discoverability, it is very hard to search for. The problem is that there already is a class of products called power adapters that are used with phones. This makes searches for information on this project very hard. For example is you Google Power Adapters, you get a bunch of AC to DC power converters. Searching for Android Power Adapters isn't much help. Even searching directly on Stack Overflow doesn't help.

The problem is that both power and adapters are very common words. Perhaps changing the name of this project to something distinctive would give it the visibility it deserves.

Yeah, you're right. I like the name though! :(

It's hard to come up with something on such a dry subject matter. I'll try to think of something. Let me know if you have any ideas.

Yes, my comments wasn’t in any way a criticism about the name, rather usibility struggle in the environment it is in.

Yes, naming is really hard. I will let you know if I have an idea. Will ask around to see if my developers or colleagues have an idea.
