Charging iPad and iPhone issues

Hi - Full time live aboard on a tayana 55. Recently changed from an AGM to a Lithium house bank. Since changing - and this may just be coincidence... I am having issues with my apple devices charging through the DC USB charging stations. Does anyone know if charging with the higher voltage - in the 13V's rather than 12V's could be the issue??? Thx in advance.

That would depend entirely on the design of the particular type of charger you are using, but I would think it extremely unlikely, since any device operating on a 12V battery system should be designed to deal with voltages from 11 to 15, at least.

Maybe try using the 110v and see if it charges

Re: Charging iPad and iPhone issues

An iPad ac charger is higher amps than many/most usb chargers carry

Did it charge well originally?
