Apple 12w charger for ipad

It has been my experience that the 10W adapter is not always capable of charging the iPad3 under intense usage.
these are situations I am referring to:
1) using maps and GPS while connected to 4G.
My iPad will actually keep discharging even though more slowly.
2} watching Netflix while connected to an HDMI TV.
my iPad will barely recharge 7%
3) multitasking; streaming music from 4G while using another app.
4) basically the iPad gets charged best when not in use.
I believe I am not the only one experiencing this issue, and Apple knows it.
That's why they quietly introduced a 12W charger.
Would I be able to claim that the 10W charger can't fully handle the power
requirements of the retina display and request a 12W as a warranty replacement?
Regards

You could make the request, but it probably wouldn't be granted. It's like asking an auto manufacturer to provide you a new engine when they increase the HP on a new model.

    "Can I use charger 10w without any worreies(damage battery)?"
    Yes you can.

    If you mean "can I get my power adapter replaced under warranty, at the Apple store?", yes.

  • 3 amp, 2-port charger for iPad & iPhone, where are they?

    Why hasn't Apple (or Griffin Technology) released a 2-port travel charger for iPad & iPhone? Is it really that hard to design a 3-amp power block? It is a royal pain having to carry 2 power blocks, and a struggle to find enough outlets to get everything charging at once.
    Thanks!

    This is my preference, by Belkin, because it has all of the bases covered; surge protector with three electrical outlets and two USB outlets. You can swivel the prongs on the back 360° with 4 locking positions. I take mine everywhere I travel.

  • Can i use new ipad charger for ipad 2 and vise versa

    I have ipad 2 and i bought new ipad for my dad. Both ipads charge quickly with ipad2 charger as compare to new ipad charger.
    So, my question is.. Is it okay to use new ipad charger for ipad 2 and vise versa...???

    The iPad 1, iPad 2 and new iPad all use the same 10W charger.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • 4 amp charger for iPad 3

    Hi !
    Do you think a 4 amp charger for iPad 3 could speed up the charging time?
    It's dangerous. Ipad support ?
    Thank's

    "Since the iPad only draws 1 amp(10watts) it may cause the capacitors the leak excess voltage. Conclusion A 4 amp chager may cause a voltage spike destroying the iPad. I would suggest using the adapter that came with the IPad."
    no this is 100% wrong
    it's 5volts and watt == volt * amps
    so ipad draws 2 amps
    and it's draws! not being feed
    it draws the amps out of the charger as much as it require
    if the charger is able to supply 4amps or 40MEGA amps dont mean anything at all
    it's all down to ohms law
    volt spikes have nothing to do with how much amp a device can supply

  • Wall Charger for ipad

    I recently purchased an ipod mini. Can I use the same wall charger I use for my ipod touch or will that not work.

    See link below about iPhone, iPod, Using the iPad Charger
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging).

    Going on a two week camping trip and will not have electricty is there an approved solar charger currently of the ipad.

    I'm seeing if the following setup works and would save hundreds of pounds I admit that charging the batteries may take a little longer than the other chargers. But if it save me 100's of pounds and also allows me to keep charging loads of battles for future use. Who cares.
    Basically charger the 4or 2xaa batteries using the solar charger and USB battery charger.  Then use these batteries with the extender providing up to 10,000mah that should completely charge the iPad to full.
