Do the USB ports support higher-draw items such as iPads?

I'm not sure what the output is but I do use it for my iPad. If I plug not in before I go to bed its fully charged by morning.

The USB ports will support higher draw items. One port has been used for a 10" screen Samsung tablet and the second port for a 5" screen Samsung smartphone at the same time. Laptop and printer were also plugged in.

According to the documentation the USB ports are 2.1 amp. iPads use a 5.1 volt-2.1 amp -10watt charger. So, the product should support directly charging a tablet.

I can't say for sure about he iPad but it handled my Kindle Fire without a problem.

I own an iPad 3. The built in usb port charges just fine, the tablet is indicating that it is charging with the screen on.

Yes, I use my iPad and iPhone cords and plug into the USB ports. And there are regular plug in spots too.

Not sure about the back end. But the front offers standard USB ports. Some specifically to charge the iPad.

Yes, there is a USB port on the device which will supply ample power to usb devices. I am using the 12 volt output to power a small Amateur Radio. (Approximately 2amps through the 12v output) The 5v USB out should handle everything, even tablets.

Please keep in mind the port is a 3.0 USB so not all devices are compatible with this type of port.

I'd like to know if the USB port will charge an IN-USE iPad as well. I'd like to to not have to carry the 10 W adapter with me all the time.

As long as you have the USB plug on one end, you should be good to go. The upper slot is a 10 amp port just for items that do not need the higher amp rated lower port that should be used for tablets, etc.

Don't know. I have an iPad but it doesn't have a USB port. Works great with my MS Surface Pro.

The 9 inch tablet I have does have a USB port. Not the full size USB port but the small one similar to the ones you find in today's smartphones. It does include an adaptor though (~5 inch cable) with a female USB port so you can connect pen drives and normal/standard USB devices to this cable/adaptor. Hope this help.

No, this is for a DisplayPort, not a USB Port. Two different things. Unfortunately the HDX doesn't have native HDMI out like the Fire HD had (micro HDMDI).

Sorry i missed the part that you need to buy a convertor to USB since IPAD has to USB port

The newest generation of iPads and iPhones require a higher output USB standard. Older devices will charge fine using the USB out feature of the Solar Battery Charger. Here is part of a Wikipedia article concerning USB ports and standard versus nonstandard devices: "Some devices, when plugged into charging ports, draw even more power (10 watts or 2.1 Amps) than the Battery Charging Specification allows. The iPad and MiFi 2200 are two such devices.[71]." For more information concerning the USB power specifications, here is the link to the full article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#USB_Power_Delivery_specification. Hope this helps!

I recently charged my iPad 3 and an iPhone 5 in an airport using the USB ports. But your mileage may vary.

Yes. Assuming both ports support the USB size (as some tablets have a "Micro usb").

No I just tried on both my old iPad2 and new ipad air2 with genuine Apple 30pin and lightning USB camera adapters. Both iPads gives me an "Usb 2.0 card reader: The connected device requires too much power" error.

Oh, yes! The labeled ipad port have 2.1. If your another brand device needs 2.1 amp or less, you can use the port!

You have to use lightening adapter(30 to 8 pins, apple brand only) if you are using ipadmini or latest ipad. USB is for pc or mac connection only.
