5W USB-C charger block (alien.top)

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!

The optimization setting will help. It automatically will charge to a certain percentage then slow roll it and notify you with an estimated time or timeframe. On the other hand you can create a shortcut to go into low power mode at any percentage you want.

Personally I have my shortcut set to turn on low power mode when it goes below 50%, and turns off when it’s charged to 80%.

Wouldn’t worry too much about super juicing your phone anymore. I can probably screen the shortcut script I have if you would like to copy it instead of trial and error.
