Fenix PD36R charging

[konicky]

Just got a Fenix PD36R and wondering what USB charger to use. I have various iPhone and iPad ones but thinking about getting a USB-C one. What spec should I be looking for to get the fastest charging? Apparently the port on the torch is 5V/3A but I don't really know what that means!!

5 VDC * 3 A equals 15 Watts. That is the maximum rate at which the built-in charger will charge. That being said, the ARB-L21-5000 battery can be charged separately at a maximum of 5 A, but Fenix recommends charging it at 1 A. The original iPhone charger, and most chargers of its era are 1 A/5 W chargers.
