Hello,

I am looking for a 5W USB-C charging block to best charge my iPhone overnight (and minimize heat production). I’m not sure if it’s just me but I don’t see a 5W output charger block on Amazon, unless I am being dumb and I actually need to calculate the output wattage, which is different from the stated “face value” wattage? Not sure which is the case.

Anyhow, if anyone sees/knows a 5W USB-C charger block on Amazon, I’d appreciate if you could tell me the name of it or link it. Thank you!

Yes, the intention is these devices have smart throttling to not overwhelm or stress the hardware. You may want to consider a watt measuring cable, which will allow you to see the pass through at different battery levels if you're concerned.
