Suit yourself, just trying to provide some alternatives. You're not the only one that reads your thread. There are plenty of adapters/cords that will provide the required amps/watts to charge IPads. If the adapter/cord was designed on the older USB 2.0 std. they definitely won't cut it. The port I recommend will support up to an Ipad Pro which needs up to 18 watts which requires the highest charge rate of any Ipad I know of.
Have fun!
