Can I use my iPad Air's charger to charge my iPhone 5?
Hi! I think my iPhone 5's charger (the power adapter) already broke since it won't charge anymore after a spark while charging. So can I use my iPad Air's power adapter to charge my iPhone 5? It says on the Apple website that the iPhone's power adapter is of 5W, while the iPad is of 12W. I'm not really sure what that means but does it actually matter?
No, it will do harm to your iPhone 5
It is fine to swap them. Since the iPad charger has more watts, the iPhone will charge faster. It might also affect the battery life since batteries usually like being charged at a lower rate. It will also heat up.
I've used my iPad charger to charge my iPhone for two years now and I've never had a problem.
Of course, you can use the iPhone charger to charge the iPad, but the charging time is measured in days.
