Compact, light, works well
This came with my iPad 4th Generation and it works just as expected. It's the same size as the previous 10W adapter but charges mo re quickly. I can tell you that this does charge the iPhone much faster than the 5W adapter that the iPhone comes with.
What else is there to say? It works and looks great. …- Written by Jordan J H from Fort Macleod

Very compact design, does what it should do, but the cable could be longer.
The body of the charger is compact enough to fit into the outlet without hogging up the space that is needed for other neighboring plugs to fit properly in their place. The prong that connects to the lightning port of the iPad is symmetrical, making the user not have to ascertain which way it connects. Another minor pro would be that the color of the cord is white; allowing it to be very easy to see if when the cord slips accidentally behind or below furniture in a dark place that is surrounded with other dark cords. However the length of the cable is a little less than what I need when I am charging it and using my ipad at my desk. With all of this mind, it quite simply gets the job done. …

Why the short cord?
The charger works great, it charged my iPad and iPhone super fast but I cannot understand why on earth the cord is so short. With such great products it just seems ridiculous to go cheap on something this basic. At the very least apple should have a longer cord as an accessory option. …

what power adapter do i need for ipad gen 1
- Asked by Daryll L from Montour Falls
- Dec 29, 2012
Answer
Any of the iPad adapters will work for the iPads. You can purchase this 12w adapter and just use a 30-pin USB cable with it. It will draw as much power as it needs to (since the iPad 1 uses 10 watts, it will draw 10 from this). …
