Ordered the adapter, because I do not always wanted to load on the power plug my iPad3. In addition, I liked that he was so small. The latter is also true, and the workmanship is also good. The bright charging light does not bother me really. Unfortunately, it was not possible to load the iPad fully me. Tried it on two PCs and a notebook. In the car I have not tried it yet. Sometimes the iPad showing a charging process, which is then canceled after a short time, or it does not work from the beginning. So for me, the adapter is useless.
