		kevmo314 on July 8, 2020 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Turn your phone into a wireless webcam My phone drained faster than it could charge with a laptop USB C charger and modern phone supporting fast charge. I eventually relented and just got a webcam, but it was a nice idea to have one fewer gadget.

Seems more likely that fast charging did not work than that the phone uses >15W sustained to power the webcam?
