Reply to comment by Puzzleheaded_Tone723 in Which MagSafe power bank brand are you choosing for your iPhone 14? by AptCovering

But it charges at 15w, no? While others NOT Apple-branded are locked at 7.5w.

You’re correct, although you can get 15W when connected to a power adapter.

> If connected to a 20W or higher power source, your MagSafe Battery Pack can charge your iPhone with up to 15W of power. In order to get 7.5W charging on the go, update your MagSafe Battery Pack to the latest firmware. The firmware update begins automatically after you attach your battery pack to your iPhone. The firmware update can take about one week.

Only while plugged in via pass through charging. While just a battery and not plugged in, it’s 7.5w and I haven’t seen higher anywhere (again, while running on battery).
