USB POWER ADAPTER FOR MODEL A2249 USB-C TO LIGHTNING CABLE

I have an iPad model A1458. My USB Power Adapter is model A1401. I ordered a USB-C to Lightning Cable bearing Model A2249 from Apple Singapore. And it does not fit.


When I placed my order, I used as basis my iPad model. What kind of remedy can you kindly suggest? If I need to buy a new USB Power Adapter, what model would fit the A2249 lightning cable?

Your iPad4 has a Lightning connector. The maximum charging rate of iPad4 is 12W; all Apple 12W Power Adapters have a USB Type-A connection. Therefore, for this arrangement, you will require a Lightning to USB Type-A cable:


  • Lightning to USB Cable (1m)
