Charger for iPad

Can someone recommend a 12v plug in charger which will definitely supply the 2.1a current I need for my iPad? I seem to have dozens in the car, but I can never find the one which works. There are two rules for success,

Thanks. I have an Anker mains powered one at home, so I know the brand is OK. I'll give it a try. Does the 5 port model really run OK? that's a lot of current for a cigarette lighter socket. There are two rules for success,

Without going out in the cold & digging out my manual ISTR the socket is 150w rated so at 50w this is well in its capability. I've used it charging up an ipad 4 and a couple of iPhones, and a mifi spot thingie, all at the same time. The new iphone SE charges up whilst in use (display at max). I had a torrid time last Norway trip where I only had 1A USB outlets, was having to charge overnight and even plugged in the ipad would be empty by the time I got to mid afternoon.

Thanks DSL
