Hi all. I am trying to make a custom project that contains an iPad that uses the lightning connector. I am trying to charge the iPad from a buck converter that outputs the correct 5v. Opening up the lightning cable, i have connected the red to the 5v and the black to negative. However, whenever i plug this in it will not charge. I have checked the pinout and it is indeed outputting 5v across pins 5 and 1. Anyone know what i am missing?
Thanks
John
