In order to quickly charge Lightning devices via USB-C Power Delivery, you will need Apple's original USB-C to Lightning cable. A generic USB-A to Lightning cable using a USB-C to USB-A adapter reduces the charging speed to 5V, 2.4A. There is only one official USB-C to Lightning cable, which is the one made by Apple, as shown here. Other cables offered by third party manufacturers are unlicensed and unoffical, as Apple have not yet released a production license for this cable type (as of Dec 2017.) This essentially means that any other varieties of USB-C to Lightning cable (e.g on eBay or Amazon) are fake. The result? Your device won't charge correctly. In addition, Apple are also able to deactivate unlicensed products with every iOS update, so steer clear!

Charging with the tizi Schlitzohr

The tizi Schlitzohr is not suitable for quick charging via USB-C Power Delivery, as it works using a USB-A connector. It is possible to charge USB-C devices with the tizi Schlitzohr, but in this case, USB Standard protocol is used and the device will charge at a maximum of around 12W.
