I already have some usb a to usb c adapters so I’m going to hook that on my bedside 5W adapter for charging overnight.
Great! You just called me homeless. That's my grandma's chair you are talking about loll. Don't judge.

Socks are def more interesting at the moment sure. What style you wanna talk about?
Thank you! See guys! I'm not the only one. 5W Apple Charger the the win!
I legit LOL’d
I am disappointed. If you want OEM Apple, they have so many options. Even my daughter doesn't use that
What other options are you referring too? I only prefer OEM Apple.I am disappointed. If you want OEM Apple, they have so many options. Even my daughter doesn't use that
The winner of what? Your phone going from 12% to 19% in 9 hours?
I have an Anker USB C charger that I charge my MacBook with next to my bed. For the iPhone, I have another Anker charger with USB ports and I use a USB to Lightning cable. When I get my iPhone on Friday, I'll only need to use the USB C charger. You don't need a dongle. You just need a USB to USB C cable. It will go straight from the charger to your iPhone without a dongle.
We're on a forum. Do we really know each other?
I doubt it. Everyone will be sitting by the window waiting for UPS truck.
No! When I wake up it's at 100%. Optimized charging kicks in at mid-night and around 3 AM it starts charging again. It's a pure satisfaction for me to watch my iPhone slowly charge. Also, it stays very cool. No overheating!
It's about the principalities.
lol I don’t understand why anyone is fussing over charging with a 5W adapter OVERNIGHT. The phone ends up charging to 100% even if you get 4 hours of sleep.
Every store in Arizona basically tells you it's for pre-orders only and to try back tomorrow.
I am the same way. Slow trickle charge while I sleep. I only use the MagSafe charger if I have to get a real quick boost in a hurry I am by no means Battery expert however, it just seems to me that as long slow charge will possibly better for the batteries then the quick high watt charge, but like all things, your mileage may vary.
Am I the only one that totally understands and believes this?
She is doing this because she wants to avoid fast charging while also using official Apple products.
I don’t believe Apple makes a USB-A to USB-C cable. That is why she has to use a USB-A to Lightning cable to a Lightning to USB-C dongle. She is using the OG USB-A brick to limit the charge power to 5w as to not damage the battery like the fast charging bricks do.

You cannot connect a USB-C Cable to an Apple 5W Charger. That's not possible. You need a dongle to support that I think.

The 5W wall charger is USB-A. In your pic, the cable you show is a USB C to Lightning cable. You just need a USB-A to USB-C cable to use that charger with your iPhone 15. No Lightning-USB C adapter needed.

Yes. This.
@TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ cancel all that stuff you just bought and just buy a cable (the 15PM includes a charging cable already, do you need another?) and a usb-c power block. I'd probably buy this power block.
35W Dual USB-C Port Power Adapter
The 35W Dual USB‑C Port Power Adapter allows you to charge two devices at the same time, whether you’re at home, in the office, or on the go. Apple recommends using it with MacBook Air. You can also use it with iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and AirPods.

And you thought the Apple polishing cloth subject was bad...😆
Thanks but its a 35W Adapter. I only want to slow charge my iPhone. I prefer using that Apple 5W brick.Yes. This.
