S24 Ultra and S24+ support 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0

take three USB-C cables and combine them into a 3-to-1 cable. plug that sucker into three different 15W ports. bam, now you've got 45W right to your phone.

I installed one of these https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256...t_main.25.21ef18020Isdk9&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa using the 12v supplying the wireless charger. I removed the part of the casing of the wireless charger so I could electrically isolate and tuck the wired charger inside. I cut a small section off the corners of the rubber top for the cables to come out and then reinstalled the wireless charger unit. Overall it looks pretty normal and you can tuck the cables into the center console if you want.

My USB-C charger is really slow. And will not charge my iphone to 100%. Left it plugged in overnight and it stopped charging at 80%. It will bring the phone back to life if it dies.

Are you sure you don't have the 80% charging limit on the phone active? That's what I have so it will only charge to 80%.

In the Rivian? Granted our phones (iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max) are a few generations old, but plugging them in charge them to full VERY quickly. Make sure you are using a "certified" Apple charging cable (if you have an iPhone). Those knockoffs do charge slow since I believe Apple has some sort of chip or something in them.

If your phone is that dead, you have other issues. Whatever the USB-C port puts out, it has been enough to charge my phone just fine.
