Hi, my friend has bought iPhone from 3rd party reseller.
I noticed something weird with the charger so I put it on weight and weight was 18g. Weight of original from my Apple Watch is 27g.

I disassembled the fake one and took some pics.
Is there anyone with electrical knowledge, who could say what is wrong with the fake one, what is missing and about hazard that this charger represents?

This is EU charger so maybe some difference there. Or just my weight is not accurate.
