Can you use a 30pin/lighting converter with this charger? Will it then work with iphone5 and ipad air?

Don't know. I returned immediately when I got it. This thing was junk... I wouldn't recommend.

Yes and No. The unit has powered USB ports that you can plug your Apple supplied Lighting charger line in to. The power leads that come with this unit are all for 1st generation Apple products. I would not buy it again.

The connection is the 30 pin connection. It will not connect directly to the iPhone 5. I have an iPhone 4S and therefore do not know if a 30pin to lightning converter will allow devise to work.

The charger will work but the supplied cable will not. You'll need to use your existing USB to 30pin iPhone cable (or purchase a second one). The cable this charger comes with is a USB to lightning cable.

Not sure about the 30-pin to lightning converter, but the iDJ Live II comes with a USB to lightning cable to connect it to an iPad/iPhone. No need for a converter since it comes with a cable for it.

Having gone through issues with this, I can confirm this: if you buy OFFICIAL Apple accessories (dock to lightning adapter), it should work! My iPod 5G (with iOS 7) works with the light ONLY with Apple branded converters. I imagine the same goes for iPhone 5. I had issues with non-branded dock-to-lightning adapters...

The attachments will work for the iPhone 4. The iPhone 5 and iPad Air both require lightning connections which this doesn't come with, but both devices can be plugged into the back-up battery's USB connector (with the cable they came with). So this unit will charge all three devices.

So I have an iPhone 5, but I have to use the 30 pin connector to lightening adapter to make it work. The device itself has a 30 pin connector. I didn't have a problem with this, because I have the 3rd generation iPad which is still a 30 pin connector. Other than that it works pretty good.

You will need a lightning to 30-pin adapter, says the nice customer service rep from Philips. We are going to try this, so I can update this answer after Christmas! Update: The adapter works perfectly, both for charging and for playing content from the iPhone 5.

No, you would need a lightning adapter. I think there may be a model that fits the 30-pin connector.

if you have an older version with the thirty pin connector then OK. Otherwise you need the adapter from lighting plug to 30 pin plug which is available at Apple

No, the 30-pin is for the older iPad and iPhones. find one with a lightning connection.

They don't need to convert as iPhone/ iPad is already dual voltage - so yes they just plug straight in to the foreign sockets

This is iphone5 case and has opening for lightening port, i have never used 30 Pin adapter so can't say.

This adapter can be used for the iPad 2, but not for the iPhone 5. The iPhone 5 requires a lightening connection. I think you will be able to use the iPad Connection Kit on an iPhone 5 with this additional adapter: Apple Lightning to 30-Pin Adapter (0.2M)

I doubt it, this dock works with the 30-pin connector whereas the iPhone 5 has the lightening connector

yes it will. i bought mine last year, when i had an ipod 4 gen (& iphone 4s) & ipad 3rd gen. i still have my ipad 3rd gen & i charge that on the back charger but since i have an ipod 5 gen & iphone 5, i bought the 30 pin to lightening adapter & it works perfectly w/all my ios devices! this item is TOTALLY worth ur money!
