Battery

If you live in Nigeria, you already know one thing for sure: electricity has mood swings! One moment NEPA is kind, the next moment it’s gone. That’s why fast charging has quietly become one of the most valuable features on a phone in our Naija! These days, when you see “20W,” “40W,” or “65W” written boldly on a charger, you’re probably wondering, “Which one should I buy?” or “Does it really make a difference?” It does, but not always in the way you think. Let’s unpack what those numbers actually mean, and what really determines how quickly your phone charges.     So, What Does “W” Mean? The “W” you see stands for Watts, which measures power, ie, how fast energy flows from your charger into your phone. It’s calculated as: Watts = Voltage × Current It is like filling a bucket of water. The voltage is the water pressure. The current is how wide the pipe is. And the wattage is how fast the bucket fills. So yes, a 65W charger technically pours more power than a 20W charger. But your phone controls how much it accepts! Exactly, that’s where the twist lies. If your phone supports only 25W charging, then even if you plug it into a 65W charger, it will still charge at 25W. The rest of that power just sits there politely, unused.   Differences Between 20W, 40W & 65W 20W Fast Charging: Found mostly on iPhones and mid-range Androids. Takes about 30 minutes to reach 50% on a good day. Perfect for regular users. 40W SuperCharge: Common on newer Infinix, Huawei, and Xiaomi phones. Hits 70% in 30 minutes. Great for people that are always on the move. 65W Super Fast Charge: Seen on high-end phones like OnePlus or Oppo. Can fully charge a 5,000mAh battery in 35 minutes or less. I mean, literally one short nap and you’ve got a fully charged phone. But again, if your phone’s charging limit is 25W, that 65W charger won’t make it fly. It’ll only charge as fast as your phone allows.   What Really Determines Charging Speed Now here’s the part most people don’t talk about and they are the real things that affect how fast your phone charges: Your Phone’s Charging Capacity: Every device has a limit. The charger can’t go faster than the phone allows. Cable Quality: A fake or old cable can waste power and even overheat. The thicker and certified the cable, the better the flow. See fast cables here. Charger Compatibility: iPhones use Power Delivery (PD), Samsung has Adaptive Fast Charging, and other brands have their own systems. If your charger and phone don’t “speak the same language,” charging slows down. Temperature & Battery Health: Heat is the silent enemy. When your phone gets too hot, it automatically reduces charging speed to protect itself.   Bigger Isn’t Always Better It’s tempting to grab the highest number on the shelf. Yeah, 65W sounds more powerful than 20W, right? Yes, but only if your phone supports it. If your phone only accepts 25W, then buying a 65W charger is like buying a 10,000-litre water tank for a single bucket. You won’t use most of it. However, a higher wattage charger is still useful because it can charge multiple devices safely, from your phone to your tablet or even your laptop. So, if you multitask or travel often, it’s a smart long-term choice.
