I just received my new Apple IPad. The charger uses a USB-C to USB-C cord. Can I order a USB-A to USB-C cord so I can use the charging cubes that I already own?

Yes, with the correct cable, you can use your existing Power Adapters.

I couldnt’t find a USB A to C charging cable (may not have found it) but I did find a USBC to Lightning which could allow you to charge your older devices with your newer power block (if that’s what you’re trying to do, use one block for multiple devices)
