I am now charging with my iPad charger and it's super fast! If you don't have an iPad, there's lots of different things you can buy for somewhat cheap. Definitely worth the $$:

Oct 2, 2014 5:00 PM in response to dcushmby neversometimes_,I read that you may use iPad adapters as well! I would love to hear from apple on this tho! I don't want to start using a more powerful adapter and then my sweet huge battery turns to garbage in 6 months????

Oct 2, 2014 5:02 PM in response to neversometimes_by rbrylawski,An iPad charger can most definitely be used to charge an iPhone. It's 12W vs the iPhone 5W so it will charge the device faster and it will not harm your phone.

Oct 6, 2014 6:07 AM in response to nixtercalby rj2714,My 6+ was on the 5W charger from midnight to 7:30am and only went from 5% to 28%!?! ***....When using an old 10W iPad charger it goes at lightning speed from about 25% to 63% in an hr

Feb 20, 2015 3:38 PM in response to nixtercalby stevenmedley,It makes you wonder why Apple didn't ship a 12W charger with the iphone 6 plus to begin with. I'm thinking that was an oversight on their part.

Feb 20, 2015 4:00 PM in response to nixtercalby GhillyMan,If your battery seems as though it is taking an exceptionally long time to charge it may just be that your battery is defective. If you bring the device to your closest Apple Store or Certified Apple Service Provider they can run diagnostics to see if the battery is either consuming a charge or is damaged, and since the phone is under a year old Apple would replace your device for free as long as there is no pre-existing accidental damage. It is NOT recommended that you use an iPad charger to charge your iPhone 6 since in the long run you would be sacrificing the longevity of your battery for its speed to charge.

Apr 27, 2015 5:18 PM in response to nixtercalby itsjmfs,If you need to to charge real quick with your 5W adaptor, just turn the phone to airplane mode and it will charge faster. Only drawback is your text/calls/internet/everything is turned off. But that's why it charges faster. Just in case you want to charge it real quick, that's my only helpful tip.

Aug 13, 2016 8:30 AM in response to nixtercalby Megabite47,Mine has been on an Apple purchased 3meter charger for 5 hours and has just made it to 95% I dont remember it always taking this long....its ridiculous....I have to wait for that to finish so I can charge my ipad on the same connector. It goes flat in under 48 hours often under 24hours if I use it. Wish Apple support had replied to this question I dont think using the ipad charger is a good idea if they didnt ship with it there will be a reason.
