I want to plug my iPhone 5c (with lightning connector) into my Bosch Intuvia unit. This means I need a lead with a male Micro USB connection on one end and a lightning connector on the other. Has anyone found such a lead? I can't seem to find one anywhere. I know I can manage it with various adaptors but ideally I want a simple lead to achieve this

There are lots of devices to charge an iPhone, but I just want to find a lead to plug it into my bike. Maybe there is no such lead?

intuvia usb only has 500ma charge current so at best will keep the phone batt at the same charge as when you plug it in.

I've used my Bosch Intuvia unit to charge my iPhone 5s, as it has charged to over 50% in less than half an hour, from 15-20% whilst still riding my bike. However I found if phone goes lower than 10% or turns off due to low battery the charging is a lot slower, I make sure I put it on charge at around 20%.
I used a standard apple lead, and a Micro USB to USB convertor.
