Hi Heather,
We had a similar charging issue with an ipad stand, apple issued charger and an
aftermarket extension cable. We determined that it was in fact, the length of
the cable that was the issue. When the station was in constant use, if the iPad
was not fully charged to begin with, the apple
Hi all:

adapter, which would allow you to run your iPad's USB power over standard,

Kiosk Pro. The secure stand we purchased came wired with an aftermarket
cord and it didn't keep the iPad's power, even when plugged in. On a whim
