A question for Applefans
On 9/8/2015 10:58 AM, Tony Cooper wrote:
My iPhone and iPad are charged using a plug and cable combination. Each uses a different cable with a different-size fitting that plugs into the device. Both style cables use the same wall-plug device. What is the reason for the two different fittings? Both are obtaining and converting power from the same wall plug. It seems to me that Apple is just doing the printer ink scam and adding an extra product to sell when replacements are needed. At one point Apple switched connector types. The small one is newer, and works in our iPhones and my wife's iPad. IIRC at one time a conversion connector was sold. I don't know if they are still available. -- PeterN
