Hi!

Does anyone know how much power ( amps ) the iPad gives when charging another device?

Thanks

"The USB-C port on the iPad Pro can power connected devices up to 7.5 W charging speeds. If you have a USB-C to Lightning cable, you can plug in your iPhone and charge your iPhone with your iPad. If you have two new iPad Pros, you can use the included USB-C to USB-C cable to connect them together and charge the other. One iPad will take power from the other at a time."

Thanks for being the first person to help the OP and not guess around but actually look it up.

Knowledge beats guesswork anytime.

Fascinating turn of events. Curious, wouldn't your logic apply to the OP as well?

I’m not sure if the OP did a search elsewhere, I found it however telling that two thirds of the contributions were completely useless.

I get it, just interesting. I think the same way when I see both the searchable question as well as the guesses.
