Does 15 watt wireless charging actually work? Measuring 'MagSafe' charge rates on iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Most chargers are just regular slow Qi chargers with magnets slapped onto them. They advertise wireless charge rates that are theoretical, or only on certain Android devices! This video actually measures their capabilities.
Here's the meter I use: amzn.to/3W4qnbI

super cool in depth video, answering just the question i had in my mind. Loved the video and how detailed you were.

Thank you. I really appreciate this!

Thanks for the video. Do you have a link to the meter you used?

Hey @jfink, here's the meter I use: amzn.to/3W4qnbI

I especially like the load feature of it. It can do constant current or constant power, with low voltage cutoff. Not needed for this video, but it's really useful for testing out battery banks and all sorts of other stuff.

Watching the video now... does 15W wireless charging generate an excess of heat? My phone gets so hot on 15W MagSafe power banks.

The Apple OEM MagSafe charger creates noticeable heat, but nothing excessive. I've come to realize that most wireless chargers out there are junk.
