Hello

I have recently bought an iPhone SE 2020 and the wireless charging is very slow
I have a USB measuring tool between the power supply and the wireless pad and it charges OK at 9W (counting Qi losses) so I think it's charging at 7.5W the pads support but after roughly 5-10 minutes it drops to 6-7W (maybe 5W) so it's almost charging at 5W during an entire charging session

Does anyone know why does it throttle so quick? I have tried several pads even with integrated fan and the same happens on all of them

Many thanks :)
