does anyone know if you need the 20w charger for the full charging speed or does the 18w charger that came with the iPhone 11 Pro Max work the same?
 
should i go out an dbuy the new 20w apple charger for magsafe?
 
You can use any charger generic, PC, Mac - 5W original iPhone, 10/12W iPad charger, 18/20W newer charger, or what I have lots laying around: 29W (Macbook 12" USB-C), 61W (13" Macbook Pro T2), 81W (15" Macbook Pro). 100W (16" Macbook Pro).....

So using the 18w charger will be same as using the 20w charger?
 
20w minimum to get the full 15w charging speed. If you use the 18 I think you’ll still be “quick charging,” but will only reach 12 or 13w if I remember correctly...
