IPhone charger & iPad charger

Hi everyone!
I've got an iPhone 4s and I've bought yesterday the new iPad Air... Amazing!
However, I was thinking of using my iPhone charger (which is smaller than the other) when I'm at the university.
But, I've noticed these details:
iPhone 4s/5 charger:
- Input: 100 - 240V ~ 50/60 Hz 0.15A
- Output: 5V --- 1A
iPhone Air charger:
- Input: 100 - 240V ~ 50/60 Hz 0.15A
- Output: 5.2V --- 2.4A
What are the effects of using the iPhone charger for the iPad???
In my opinion, it will take more time to charge, is it correct???
Thanks
Phil

Use a phone charger for the iPad youi'll get a 'not charging' warning and it'll charge much slower.
If you want to use only one charger, use the iPad one for both devices. The iDevices have circuitry in them so that you can use the more powerful charger for devices that need less input.

I just bought a new portable battery. It uses 2 USB ports to charge devices, a 1 amp port and a 2 amp port. My question is which port do I plug my iPhone 5s into and which do I use for my iPad 2?

It's a 10,000 mAh external battery. I got this for traveling and because I go to disneyland a lot. My phone wont last all day there and unlike some people, I would never plug my phone into their outlets (I watched a girls phone spark and practically melt once), their voltage is way too high. I have other batteries, but when I saw that this one can charge the 5s fully 3-5 times, I new it was a must. Online, there were wonderful reviews about it and that it charges the 5s and the iPad 2 wonderfully. However when I opened the package and read the directions it listed that there were 2 USB ports, a 1 amp and a 2 amp and to match your device to the port. Now it's been a while since I've studied about volts, amps, etc. so the first thing I do is google it. I know that the iPhone 5s uses 1 amp and the iPad 2 uses 2 amps, and from what I read, you can use the iPad charger to charge the iPhone (which I didn't know there were conflicts about this, I've always used my iPad charger for my phone). There are a lot of articles with people going back and forth about charging techniques, but I want to make sure I'm not going to damage any of my devices if I plug it into the wrong port.
Any responses will be appreciated as this isn't an area where I am very knowledgeable! Thank you!!!

The iPhone and iPad draw whatever charging current they require. The iPad draws more.

I mistake to using Iphone charger to recharge my Ipad and now the Ipad can't recharge thou.

I mistake to using Iphone charger to recharge my Ipad and now the Ipad can't recharge by the original charger. How can I do?

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.

Can I use the iphone charger to charge ipad

Can I safely use the iPhone charger to charge an iPad or iPad mini? I realize that the iPhone charger will charge the iPad/iPad mini at a slower rate, but does it have the potential to overheat or burn out the iPhone charger? I ask this because it is more convenient to take the iPhone charger on trips and a longer charge time is not a problem.

The only problem is the slow rate of charge. You would do better to carry the iPad charger and use it also for the phone. That is perfectly OK too.

As far as I know there is no difference, we use the same charger for iphone, ipad, ipod, etc.. and no problem.

Can iPhone car charger be used for new iPad?

Probably not. The iPhone charger is 5W whereas the iPad requires a 10W charger. The iPhone car charger will probable charge the iPad, but very slowly.

HT1665 I have a World Travel Adapter Kit for use with my iPad. can the plug adapters also be used on the Mac Pro charger to charge up my laptop when travelling or is a special converter needed.M

I have a World Travel Adapter Kit for use with my iPad when traveling abroad. I know this charger can be used on an iPhone, can the plug adapters also be used with the charger of a Mac Book Pro or is a special converter required?

Is there any concern about the type of travel adapter kit? For instance, some instructions indicate they are for heat creating appliances (hairdryers, curling irons, etc.). I bought such a set, but do they present any issues if used with more delicate electronic circuitry (for iPads, iPods, or with camera battery chargers). I am leaving for the UK on Monday and need to get it right - are they too strong for the Apple products if they are not to be used with computers? What other options are out there?

Not the ideal way... and may take forever...
