Recently I bought an IKEA Hektar lamp that features a wireless Qi charger and an USB port (for charging as well).

I've noticed that my iPhone X charges more slowly on the Hektar lamp then on my Ravpower charger (even though the Ravpower is connected to a 5V Apple charger, so it's definitely not fast charging, still it's faster then the lamp).

I hooked up the Watch cable to the USB port to charge it too.

My question - as someone who always uses Apple original chagers (even my Qi pads are attached to Apple chargers), do you think these two are safe? I checked and that IKEA lamp is registered as an official Qi charger - so I guess it's ok. What about the USB port? It's 5V 2A port. I guess this is ok, but are there any risks?
