iPad Air will not charge through Sonic Port

[philthejuggler 0]

Has anyone got charging to work through the Sonic Port? My iPad simply says 'not charging' when I connect the power cable.

Hello,

Are you using the supplied Line 6 micro-USB cable into your Apple adapter?

[philthejuggler 0]

Yes!

[joecozzi 13]

If you are using the supplied 14pin to lightning cable and the micro USB to your Apple adapter, it should work properly.

 

This could be a broken cable or other hardware. Please contact us so we can replace the device.

Same problem.  iPad not charging even when using supplied cords.

sometimes it has to do with the computer if that's how you're trying to charge it...

i find this helps with those issues (does not require anything "asus") http://event.asus.com/mb/2010/ai_charger/

also when it says "not charging" it definitely sees the power source and it's just not the power level that it likes to see....

often times it is still charging... just very very slowly.. generally enough to keep the battery from going dead.

My SonicPort VX charges my IPhone 6Plus using my 12watt Charger that came with my iPad

How do you charge your ipad if its plugged into the sonic port?

[TheRealZap 7,367]

there's a cable into the sonicport VX and a cable out of the sonicport VX, i dont think this was an option on the original sonicport.

Hi all - I called support who kindly offered to send me replacement cables but they have not yet appeared.

Have you tried a higher Watt charger?

Brand new cable. Does not charge. Have it connected to a 12w power supply. Has been connected for hours. It is in airplane mode and asleep with no apps running.

Mine is charging fine with various iOS devices

I'm having the same problem with my new iPad 9.7 even after trying several different cables and chargers. 

 

Should I contact Apple about this problem?

SAME HERE!  I have THREE Sonic Ports,..... two of the 2nd version and one of the 1st version.  I've use them on an iPhone 5, iPhone 8, iPad Pro 12.9, and iPad 5.... They used to charge, slowly but they did.  Now they don't even register that they're plugged into power.  The Sonic Ports work fine BUT they're SUCKING UP the iOS devices' power.  Kind of a bummer!
