Turns out that Powerlet is back in business- they returned my call from yesterday...
They original owners of the company bought it back then came the virus and so there is
üst a skeleton crew working there...


They say that the item in question is not meant to work with the i-phone 10/11 as they draw too much
wattage from the transformer....

By late fall/winter, they should have a revised part that they will swap with mine...

What they actually mean is they didn't design the circuit properly. If the device had been properly designed to have a current limiting circuit then the iphone would be happy charging at a slower rate. If the voltage fluctuates as the device gets progressively more strained then the iphone is likely to switch off the connection to protect itself. If the voltage sits stable, the iphone will just bleed the device until it conks out, probably by melting.
