TechMatte Charging Adapter Compatible with Apple Pencil 1st Generation, Female to Female Charger Connector

Happy with the quality of the product and it works well. Secondary item in the box which I assume is some kind of rubber device to attach it to the cable so it doesn’t get lost, however, no instructions supplied nor is it mentioned on the box, so who knows?

I'm very pleased with my purchase. I recently acquired a Gen 1 Apple Pencil and soon very much enjoyed using it. My second hand bargain pencil did not come with a charging adapter. Then, one day, disaster. The pencil would not work. After some research I learned that the pencil needs to be charged frequently. After a recharge it was up and running again. Clearly regular charging by regularly plugging your Gen 1 pencil into the side of your iPad is not at all convenient. I ordered the Techmatte charging adapter. Now everything is rosy again. I can charge the pencil easily on a regular lightning cable. In fact, as I write this the pencil is happily charging and my iPad is unencumbered. Two things to note: - the stretchy silicone strap is brilliant, holding the adapter on your lightning cable so it is always there when you need it. I couldn't work out how to attach it but a moment spent referring back to the Amazon product listing photos showed me how to attach it. - when I went to plug in cable and pencil I found the fit wasn't quite right. Well, it is right. It's perfect. I now know the adapter is uni directional. There is a small dot on the adapter. The pencil goes into this end. Once I learned to plug it in the correct way around I found the connection was snug. You can hang the pencil from the adapter and cable and it stays put. The fit is just right. All-in-all a simple device that works perfectly and adds a lot of convenience to charging your pencil. Ideally I'd have one in every room but for now I have just the one.

This is a tiny little thing just 2cm x 1 cm, but if you don't want to stick your apple pencil in the end of your ipad pro, its a very good option, as you just stick one end on the connector end of your normal charging lead and the pencil in the other side of the adapter, which means you can carry on working on the ipad even if you've let the pencil charge run down. Expensive for such a small item, but it works, and if you've spent £100 on an apple pencil, the cost is probably less inportant than the practicality and flexibility this adapter offers.I've scored it 4 stars, simply because it seems expensive, not because there is anything wrong with it per se. Do remember however that there is a right and wrong end into which to insert the pencil.

Got this to charge my apple pencil from the wall rather than the charging port in my ipad, has lasted me ages, it comes with a attachment for the cable and charges my pencil very quickly even now, I have had it for a few years now and it still looks and works as well as it did when I first got it, fits the apple pencil and my cable very well

Great charger. Comes with a sleeve to attach it to the lightening cable when not it use. The charger enables me to fully charge the pencil over night and removes the need to take power from my iPad or the risk of it being knocked while charging in the iPad . Works really well.

I upgraded my iPad from a 4th generation to 10, and already had a Gen 1 pencil. It does say in the description "Charging adapter", but my assumption was that it was just "the adapter". In fact, it will *only* charge the pencil, it will not allow you to pair an iPad to an older pencil. Unfortunately, the adapter that will allow that looks identical in pictures - it's a bit bigger, but looks the same in a scaled photo. To pair the Gen 1 pencil with a new iPad you require a female-female, lightning on one end, USB-C on the other. This adapter has lightning on both ends, basically allowing you to use a normal lightning charging cable to also charge the pencil, instead of charging from the device.

Does the job perfectly. Allows charging of pencil independently of the iPad. Avoids having it dangling precariously out of the bottom of the iPad. Competitive price, appropriately packaged and prompt delivery - all good.

I ordered this as a replacement for a lost charger, it did work as I tended. It is very solid and doesn't look lime it can break easily. It did fit the pen well without issue. I didn't find the weight to be an issue. The stability isn't an issue when connected and appears to be versatile. I didn't notice a reduction in battery life of the pen when charging the pen using this. As an added bonus it has a strap to fasten it to the main charge to help you avoid losing it.

Molto utile, avendo perso l'originale ero costretto a ricaricare l'apple pencil tramite la porta dell'ipad, ed era scomodo e oltretutto ad alto rischio di rotture. Con questo ho risolto. L'adattatore é preciso, funziona bene (per ora) e ha in dotazione un laccetto di gomma per lasciarlo ancorato al cavo. Unica pecca é che forse 9€ per un piccolo pezzetto di plastica sono tanti, ma come tutti i prodotto per la apple, i prezzi salgono...

when my original adaptor went missing (RIP little thingy!), I thought I could live without one. I had done it before. However, I discovered that charging my Apple pencil from my iPad just wasn't practical or aesthetically pleasing! It just looked plain obscene with the pencil sticking out of the rear end of the iPad! ewwwwww So I hunted for the perfect replacement. I have found it with the TechMatte adaptor. It has a little strap to keep it attached to the charger cable at all times which is good for me since I lost things at the drop of a hat! It works perfectly, I don't need to worry about losing it (unless of course my cat finds it or I lose the entire cable) and it looks really cute just hanging there...

Si vous possédez un Apple Pencil de 1ère génération, vous connaissez l'absurdité de devoir le charger en l'enfichant directement dans l'iPad (le fameux effet "sucette" ou "ventilateur"). C'est non seulement inesthétique, mais surtout dangereux : un faux mouvement et on risque de briser le connecteur du stylet ou, pire, le port de la tablette. ​J'ai acheté cet adaptateur TechMatte pour résoudre ce problème d'ingénierie et pouvoir charger le stylet directement via un câble Lightning standard. ​Ce que j'apprécie : ​La sécurité : Il permet de charger le stylet à plat sur un bureau, sans risque de choc. ​L'ajustement : La connexion est ferme. On entend un "clic" satisfaisant des deux côtés (côté stylet et côté câble). Il n'y a pas de jeu, contrairement à d'autres marques génériques. ​La compatibilité : Fonctionne parfaitement, la charge est aussi rapide qu'avec l'adaptateur d'origine Apple (qui est bien trop facile à perdre). ​À noter (Le petit bémol) : C'est un objet minuscule. Il est très facile de l'égarer. Mon conseil : laissez-le connecté à votre câble de charge dédié au bureau pour ne pas avoir à le chercher partout. ​Conclusion : Un petit accessoire simple qui fait exactement ce qu'on lui demande et qui prolonge la durée de vie de votre matériel. Pour le prix, c'est une excellente alternative à l'officiel.

Value for money

Buen producto. Llevo mucho tiempo usándolo para el Apple Pencil de 1ra generación para no tener que cargarlo con la entrada del iPad. Además con el cable y el cubo de carga rápida se recarga muy rápido.
