> The iPad Mini I bought a few years ago came with a charger which shows its output to be 5.2 Volts DC, 2.4 Amps. The iPhone 6+ I just purchased has one which shows output as 5 Volts DC, 1 Amp.
First, no one bought a iPad Mini "a few years ago" because the first one was sold in October 2012.
> I assume I should not try to use the iPhone charger on the iPad because of the significantly lower current rating. But I can't find anything on the net that confirms this. I see no spec list for it which says anything about charging requirements. Am I right?
No.
> The other side is, Is it safe to use the iPad charger on the iPhone?
Yes.
The ONLY difference you will see using an iPhone charger on an iPad is a slower charging rate.
You will see NO difference using an iPad charger on an iPhone.
The iPad charger is able to output a higher current, if the connected device calls for it, but if you connect it to an iPhone, it will output 1 Amp.
