Which power adapter do i need for my iPod touch
MY ipod touch didn't come with a power adapter. Which adapter do I need to use. They come in 5, 10 and 12 watt strengths.
iPod touch, iOS 8.4.1
The 5 watt is the correct adapter for the iPod Touch.
Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!

It does not require one. Use the USB cable that came with it, connect it to your computer's USB port and to the Touch. It will charge from the computer.
THanks. I was worried about using somethinng too strong
THanks, that would work but I sometimes need to charge when away from my computer.

While the correct charger is the 5 watt, you can actually use any of the chargers you list, the iPhone charger, the iPad chargers will all work fine. The device will only draw the amount of power it needs to charge. I only carry the iPad charger now and use that for the iPhone and iPad.
Oops, didn't mean to list my reply as solving the issue. The most complete response was from Ralph Landry1

But Kappy was helpful too because I didn't know I could charge from my computer.
Thanks to both of you.
You are very welcome.
And you certainly did the right thing in asking about the chargers - can be confusing with all of the different power ratings, and when a charger is not supplied...
When in doubt, just ask. We are all fellow users on here and very happy to offer help to others.
