Apple website says: iPad, iPad 2, iPhone 4, iPhone 4s. But not the older ones!
I have iphone 3g, which I charged with iPad 10w adapter and today I didn't wake up in time because phone battery was drained though I fully charged it before sleep. Maybe it's a bug, can't say exactly, but!:
A week ago I tried to charge my old iPod video 30gb with that iPad adapter and it was restarting endlessly until i changed the adapter!
I can't say 10w adapter will damage for sure, but be careful!
thanks for the great explanation but does this mean that i can plug my ipad or iphone (or any usb device for that matter) into any usb power supply as long as it is 5 volts? cheers
To determine which power supply you have, you need to read the Current (in Amps) written micro-fine print. To convert, Watts = Volts x Amps. All supply 5 (or 5.1) Volts, so a 10W power supply will be labeled 2.0A. A 5W p.s.will say 1.0A.
ATTENTION!

Well, I guess this applies to me using my touchpads 2A charger to charge my phones that are usually 1A rated.

Can I charge the iPad with the iPhone 4carger?

@luigy5nillal17 Yes, but it won't charge with the screen on and also takes a lot longer.

@itsLieber Not sure but I doubt it since the iPhone should draw the same no matter which charger is used.
