We still are running an old iPad for the kids, and the original cable has finally given up the ghost.

 

I bought a couple third party cables, but they barely can charge the device

 

(resorting to  power off overnight)

 

Has anyone got an original cable in the back of their draw?

PBTech have certified cables for $3, These should have no issues with charging. It might pay to pick up a couple as I imagine this will be what's left of old stock.

Edit: Apple still sell genuine cables for (an extortionate) $39

I would expect nothing less from a company that will charge you $700 for 4 caster wheels for a 4 year old computer :)
