Hey, So i have been using my 60 Watt Macbook charger to charge my iPhone for the
last 4 months, and it charges the phone quick and easy,
but now when i try to use my normal 10 Watt iPhone charger, it can't charge the phone at all.
Did i basically screw the battery by charging it with a 60 Watt Macbook charger ??

What should i do ? replace the battery or just keep charging with the 60 Watt charger ?

Cheers,

You sure it's not an issue with the 10w brick or the lightning cable?

Are you trying to use you phone while charging with the 10 cube? If so charging would be very slow. If left overnight it should still charge your phone, if there is nothing wrong with the cable and cube.

Replace the battery!? Slow down. You're trying to kill a mosquito with a canon here. iPhone lightning cables are notorious for lack of longevity. Just purchase a new lightning cable & I'm sure you'll be fine.
