Ipad 2 charging time??

[miwi81]

Ipad1 took 4 hrs +/- few minutes, i.e 25% every hour. I think Ipad2 have the same battery capacity so... yea, 4 hrs about.

Will charging shut off after it reaches 100%? Will it hurt the batteries to leave it on overnight? Should you run the battery down to 10-20% before charging?

If you want to know all about batteries...READ

I always charge overnight and it is fine. Quick during the day charges seem to be a little slower than the old iPad.

Thanks everyone for replying to my questions.
I did find a nice page on Apple's site about batteries. Most of you have probably seen it.

Lithium-Ion Batteries

Seeing as the screen is probably the single biggest power draw of the whole device, then yeah, that's probably about normal.

10-15% takes 3-4 hrs on USB port of ACD connected to MacBook Pro.

Ipad takes long time to charge

What is the normal ipad 2 charging time? I swear mine takes forever to charge. The battery is lasting as it should but takes forever to charge.

You're right. Mine takes forever. I was using the Iphone adapter with the cord and thought that was the problem. But nope, it does the same with the ipad charger. Don't understand this. It can take up to 6 hours or more. Unreal.

Charging iPad 2 for the whole day (around 12 hours for now), and it still 93%.
And that was my fault - occasionally used iPod's power adapter, it is 5W instead of 10W for iPad, and that makes big difference
So, beware.

Mines about the same but I also have a 6ft extension cable, charger to iPad, when using this it takes 7hrs or so, not sure why.

Use Original Apple cables!

Hey guys, use original Apple cables and chargers. I was using the 10W Apple charger and a cheap Ebay 6ft cable. The charging time was insane! (7hrs +)

I switched to the original short Apple cable and the charging time is now more normal (3-4 hrs). Mind you, it is still a considerable amount of time to charge my iPad 2, but way better than 7hrs +.

Hope it helps

5hrs for me

For me,my iPad 1 Takes about 5hrs to fully charge.. But lasts 10hrs min with Full WiFi Browsing+gaming .. So,I am ok with it

About 3.5 Hours

What I do is put it into Airplanemode, thus disabling the wifi (which is alway's on at home)

Before I did this, my iPad used to take much longer....Around 5 hours.
