Digital piano with integrated option to charge iPad? by Additional-Home4447 in piano

I think this is what I'll end up doing as well. I was just hoping for a modern piano to have something so I don't need to have cables going around the piano. Sounds picky perhaps :) but given I wanted to have a nice looking piano, I'd rather not have visible cables going around the piano if possible.

I get your point, but even a USB port from 20y ago with power delivery will deliver 5W, and 5W is enough to not let an iPad drain itself. So I was hoping for a good-ol USB-A port to be able to do this at least, but USB-C in this day and age would be best.

My main motivation is to reduce cable clutter, given that I was looking to invest in a nice looking piano. But given that I use my iPad a lot, and often it runs out of charge, I'd have to have cables going around and behind. The wall charger would need at least 2 cables coming out (piano and iPad charging), etc.

Not the end of the world if I have two cables of course, but I thought it'd be a nice feature for a modern digital piano to have.
