GlennD said:The USB port conforms to industry specifications of .5A of power available. Some Devices (Apple) require 2A to charge.
Agree, but doesn't the iPad report not charging? Mine does, and perhaps that is what others are seeing, and therefore believe it is not charging.TomT said:Correction: They require 2 amps to charge at maximum speed... They will charge just fine on ports with less current capability, just much slower. I charge my iPad 2 on a .5 amp port all the time. It charges much slower than it would from its 2.1 amp charger but still charges fine nonetheless.

Pinzgauer said:My suspicion is that the Nav unit USB charging behavior is different than the non-nav. So all the "I charge fine" comments need to mention if they have Nav or not.
